The school closure policy must be established by June 30, at the request of the Ministry of Education. Board members named to the committee were chair- man Ron Murray, John O'Leary and Ernest Vander- schot, the same .members who served on the declining enrolment conunittee last year. All school boards in the province have been re- quested to establish policies relating to the closing of schools, which will allow ratepayers to comment on a proposed school, closure be- fore the board makes any final decision. Board members are also asked to establish a mini- mum time period between the identification of a school as a candidate for closure and the final decision of the board. Also to be determined is how the board can hear, in a session open to the public, the effects a school closure might have on community activities of a social, cultural or recreational nature which take place on theschool pre— mises. Other provisions on the use of school buildings and sites included in the memoran- dum from the provincial government dealt with mothballing school buildings until they are needed again, the surrender of a school building to another board and alternative uses for sur- plus schools. The HPRCSS board doesn't presently have any schools within its system scheduled for closure in the near future. r The board learned James Snow, Minister of Transport and Communications, has turned down a board request for a stoplight., at the Dublin intersection. The baord had requested a stoplight due to the number of fatal traffic accidents at the corner and because several school buses 'aVpi throb 110 may, *. Snow sad he'd,* .te *Me to r do to Hibbert T clerk Charles Friend whet the township council re- quested a light at the bite?. Section. The minister sat`, "it appears driver inatteit= tion, drinking drivers and failure to drive according to prevailing road conditions have been the major cause of, these accidents." Mr. Snow. added, "addi- tional traffic control devices will have little effect on this driver action." In refusing lights at the corner, Mr.. Snow said his department would continue to monitor the location for any de- terioration in traffic opera- tions. Also discussed at the meeting was the question of sending delegates to three upcoming education con- ferences. The two conven- tions which trustees can attend are the Canadian Catholic School Trustees Association convention, to be held in Saskatoon early in June and the Canadian School Trustees Association Educational Showcase, in Calgary later that month. - Trustee Ron 'larcy of Stratford said the Calgary convention would cost $200 for registration, hotel fees would be about $200 for four nights, and the air fare would be $305 charter or $462 economy. He said when a delegate's meals were added to that, it could cost almost $1,000 per delegate to attend the Western conference. Mr. Marcy said he didn't think "the convention is worth that kind of money in the present economic situa- tion". He added costs of sending delegates to Saska- toon would "likely be in the same ball park." Bill Eckert, the board's education director, told the trustees vice-chairman Vince Young, ,vho 'was' hos- pitalized and unable to at- tend the meeting, had ex- pressed an interest in at- tending the Calgary conven- tion.
