Support In principle' __--_- for housing proposal GORRIE — Efforts by the community of Belmore to have government -supported senior citizen housing constructed there are being supported "in principle" by Howick Township Council. - Belmore is located at the crossroads of four townships and the community will now seek similar support from the three other townships, Carrick, Culross and Turn - berry. A meeting is also being arranged with government housing of- ficials. The decision by council to; lend its support to the proposal followed a presentation of facts to council at its Jan. 4 meeting by a delegation of. Belmore citizens. At the request of the delegation's spokesman, Walter Renwick, a former member of council, Reeve William Newton said he would attend the meeting that is being arranged. Mr. Renwick told council a survey taken by the Belmore community indicated a need for 17 rent -geared -to -income rental units and three market value rental units for senior citizens in the Belmore community. "We didn't mail out the surveys, we went directly to the people in our general area," Mr. Renwick said. "If they weren't interested they didn't do the survey. The purpose of the survey was explained to them ... That's why it turned out the way it did." Township Clerk Wesley Ball who attended meetings /held with representatives of the Belmore community and housing officials told council the results of the survey are not being questioned. He indicated however that government officials are having trouble justifying the construction of senior citizen housing units in such a small community. The size of the community didn't appear to bother Deputy Reeve Jack Stafford. "if it will work anywhere in North America," the deputy reeve said, "it will work in Belmore." The community has a reputation in the area for supporting its community projects such an a new community centre complex and its annual maple syrup festival. Mr. Renwick said the community needs the sup- port of a township if it is to get approval for govern- ment -supported housing. "That appears to be the way to go," he said. "The reason for setting this up in the first place was to give the older people in our com- munity the opportunity to remain in the community and partake of what we have here. Other communities have this kind of housing — why shouldn't we? The people who are here could stay here instead of going off to Brussels or Wingham, or wherever, where they feel isolated." "It sounds all right if the figures haven't changed too much," Coun. Alex Graham said. "The rental is based on capital costs." Mr. Renwick said the maximum figure being quoted by government housing officials is $40,000 per unit, "but I think it could be done for a bit less than that." Regarding the operating costs of senior citizen housing such as that being proposed by the Belmore community, Reeve Newton said municipalities are responsible for 7.5 per cent of the debts. In Huron County the debts, of government -supported housing are paid through the county and therefore all municipalities share the costs, whether or not they have such housing in their individual municipality, the reeve explained. By approving the proposal "in principle" the reeve said, the township would be lending it the necessary support, but at the same time would be carrying out its responsibility to the township as a whole. "it would still leave us lots of room to back out," he said. "We have to be responsible — we don't want to end up carrying the whole thing. Stranger things have happened." 5 HARRISON—Passed away at the Wingham and District Hospital, Satur- day, Jan. 8, Joseph Adam Harrison, infant son of Allan and Joanne Harrison of Wingham Brother of Todd and Roffbie, at home; grandson of Harold and Jean , King of RR 2, Wingham ; great-grandson of Mrs. Verna Elliott and Mrs. Beatrice Shropshall, both of Wingham ; great - great -grandson of Mrs. Annie Baker of Brook- haven Nursing Home, Wingham.

Cemetery. To repeat course Creating a Caring Com- munity, an adult education course sponsored by the Wingham and District Ministerial Association, was so well received when it was first offered last fall that it will be offered again this spring. Nine local people and Rev. T. R. Trites of Bluevale, the course instructor, met for nine weeks in the fall. The course ended Dec. 15. The course focused on the ability of people to listen and communicate care, hope and support to terminally ill SCOUTING NEWS A new member to the group committee of the First Wingham Scouts, Bob Hewines, was welcomed when the group met for its January meeting at the home of Shirley Kaufman. Mr. Hewines has seven years of experience with the Scouting organization in the Toronto area and started out with a Salvation Army group in that city. Eleanor Ward opened the meeting with a fitting prayer for the New Year. Chairman Gerry Belanger chaired the meeting and said it had been a very busy weekend in Scouting. Last Friday night 16 boys went to camp at Maitforks. Scouter Marty Cretier said it was a very good camp, but addeifi a would no�iake so many boys camping at one time again. From now on they will be chosen on a patrol basis. Mr. Cretier continued by saying it was great to see Brent, Phillip and Russell Foxton, all sons of Scouter Ken Foxton, come out to camp to help. For many of the new Scouts this was their first attempt at planning meals and cooking. The leaders expresse that too much food was waited'though, which they do not like to see. Two of the new Scouts received Woodsmen Badges at the camp. The boys were up bright and early Saturday morning and headed back to town so they could help some of the older Cubs and the Kinsmen start on their an- nual bottle drive. The town was covered quickly while other boys sorted bottles at the town hall. Although not quite as many bottles were collected as in the past, it still was felt to be a worthwhile project. Thanks to all who helped. Mrs. Ward had hot chocolate and cookies ready when the boys returned from can- vassing. A worthwhile seminar on group committees was held Saturday at the council chambers in the town hall. Many interested people from Saugeen West District in Scouting attended. Dianne Thynne reported for the Beavers. She said the group had been to Brookhaven in December to sing and entertain the residents. The sleigh ride had to be cancelled though because of a lack of snow, but the .horse couldn't get through the fog. Lois Baynton resigned as Beaver leader, so a replace- ment is needed. Mrs. Thynne was congratulated on., completing her training course. No Cub report was given. Due to Captain Wilson Perrin's move, the Cubs also are looking for a new leader. Before leaving, Capt. Perrin was presented with an engraved plaque from all the Cubs. Mr. Cretier reported for the Scouts and suggested holding a skating party to celebrate the 75th year of Scouting. Mrs. Ward will investigate and bring back a report to the next meeting. In other business, thank - you notes were to be written to the Kinsmen for helping with the bottle drive and to Jack Hodgins for a donation of material to the boys. The church parade this year will be held Sunday: Feb. 20 at Sacred Heart Church. The parent and son banquet .plans are being finalized and a flyer will be sent home in the near future. A First Aid course is being offered to leaders and senior Scouts and already 12 have signed up. Due to the high cost, no Wingham boys will be attending the World Jamboree this year. In 1985, the jamboree will be held in Guelph. Mr. BeJanger„-indicatetlA at. we must be getting_ to work on —�ralsing�f iii Fs soihaf some of the boys can attend. Ask any Scout who has attended a jamboree and he will say it is the experience of a lifetime. The next meeting is scheduled' to be held at Mrs. Ward's home. Belmore Dick and Dianne Marvin 0, and family of Moffat and Pete and Connie MacEwen and family of Molesworth visited with Mr. and Mrs. Jim Renwick and family. Isabelle' Edwards of Lucan visited with relatives on the weekend. Mrs. Kate Renwick visited with Mr. and Mrs. Ken Dettman. Teeswater Curling Club was in Belmore for a jitney with the Belmore curlers. persons and grieving friends and family members. Mrs. Janet Clark of Wingham spent an evening with the class, leading a reflection and discussion on the family which suffers the death of a child. The success of the course in attaining its objectives can be measured by the suggestion of class members that it be offered again to the community, and by the support of the ministerial association for this sugges- tion. It' will be offered in 1983 as a five-week program be- ginning March 2. As before, the group will meet in the Upper Room of St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church, Wing - ham, from 8-10 p.m. each Wednesday evening. REAL ESTATE LTD.
