Council disapproved of the $150,000 proposal to rebuild the dam. Council also • moved that the completion date for the dam be set at the end of 1978, and that MVCA advise council what, if any grants can be obtained. The $150,000 propsal "by the Ministry of Natural Resources was turned down 'by council be- cause no grants were forthcom- ing and Howick would be respon- sible for 20 per cent. .• MVCA advised council it could. repair the dam adequately for less. It was also advised that no. engineer would put his name or seal to the construction unless steel piles and rip rap were in- stalled with the repairs. This is because of the gravel base, 12 feet below the dam, that could wash out. A petition to improve the Hislop Drain was accepted by council at its September session and Mait- land Engineering services is requested to assume the engineering duties. Clerk Wesley Bail told council the drain definitely needs a clean- up, including the Grey extension according to James Cross, one of the petitioners. Dave Watson and George Adams are the other peti- tion signers. • Coun.' Bill Newton said he felt the engineers could move a little faster on the drain work. "We like to stick with one firm but they do need to move more quick- ly," he said. He suggested Mait- land .be advised of- this feeling. Council is writing a letter to MVCA approving of, a proposal for Boy Scouts to plant trees in the front area of the dump. The area suggested is to the right of the dump and not planned for dumping purposes. The road superintendent was instructed by council to proceed with a road opening in Gorrie. Wellington Street, south is to be opened to give access to homes thet•e. Recreation Committee grant apportionments were approved by council.

Country Squares each $175; and All accounts were approved as the Howick figure skating club presented for payment. $265.• • Council discussed thetran- quilizer gun just bought for wild dogs and steers in the township. It was noted that someone who is qualified to use the $280 gun is needed and that the availability of the gun should be known to people in the township. Three properties in the • town- ship are over run with weeds and council is asking owners to clean them up or the weed inspector will be notified. The properties are the vacant Anglican Church lot, Ferdwich, •the feed mill lot, Gorrie, and the property of Bill Marriner.
