'We made a mistake not 4o have takenthe bull by the horns then. I feel that it is too late in the year now, to make any changes." Reeve Nediger stated that he had 'no gripe personally against the PUC, but feel that we have not done all we should do for the people. 'We're spending their money, and a' good percentage of them have asked for action:' Mayor M. J. Agnew said it was a matter of indifference to him who the people elect to the PUC but be did not agree with the idea cf dissolving the commission. Shipping Door Neil Campbell, (Clinton Farm it Here on tk he matt r of the in - Supply) requested a "no parking' extension of the four inch line sign painted on -the street at the in front of his properties, ex- pressing his wish for the larger line and his willingness to as- sume the 85 per cent of the cost. Coun. Knights made a motion that the town assume 15 per cent of the cost, and instal the small copper line in front of the properties. Upon Mr. Deseck's insistence that he preferred the larger line, and a hasty figuring on the part of both Mr. Deseck and the Council it was discovered that the difference in cost to the Council would amount to about $45. Council agreed to the in- tailation of the Iarger line. Two readings of a by-law on this action must be given and the by-law must receive the ap- proval of the Municipal Board, before construction can begin.

He was, semi-conscious when., found ,by companions, who : sent" for Dr. J. C. Goddard. 0 Town Will Extend Water Mains To Deseck Housing fore action was taken, and that building permits should receive more attention than just the OK of the fire chief. "Once you give a man permissign to build a house, then you're practically forced to give him services as he wishes.' After other business of coun- eil had been taken up, and under the order of new business, Coun. Gliddon expressed his belief that Council and PUC appeared to be bewildered and befuddled with regards to extension work, and that a joint meeting to dis- cuss the matter should be held. Mayor Agnew reported that he had suggested such a meeting at the last session of the P170 and had found no enthusiasm for one. A motion by Gliddon seconded by SchoenhaIs was pas- sed that Council meet with the PUC in the near future to dis- cuss extensions of water and sewer services. door,, of his feed store, and Council considered placing a movable sign there that that could be moved at times when the shipping door would not be in use. Parking space still not sufficient in town, led Dr, McIntyre to suggest re- questing the Bell Telephone Com- pany if they would permit the use of their vacant lot behind Aiken's store, for use- as parking area, and Council agreed. Taxi Drivers Taxi drivers', licences were ap- proved for Ken Ashton, William Swan and Pat Humphries. A re- port by Chief Constable J. Fer- rand that one John Hallam, mag- azine salesman, had been granted a temporary licence to sell in Clin- ton, was not approved by Council. Gliddon, Knights and Mayor Ag- new agreed that there were en- ough agencies in town now selling such goods, and that outside sales- men were only a nuisance. Building Permits Four building permits were ap- proved unconditionally. One for a home on Victoria St. and Vict- oria Terrace, to be built at a cost of $7,000 by F. Chapman, was ap- proved, and sewerage to be prov- ided If available. Another for a house on Matilda street to be er- ected by Karl Perejma at a cost of $4,000 was held, pending defin- ite information, the belief being that no mains were immediately available to the property. Public Works Reeve J. W. Nediger reported that all grass had been cut once, with the exception of some areas which would have to be• scythed and calcium was ready to be laid in two weeks time. He stated a- gain his dissatisfaction with the service given by the town engin- eer W. B. Colby, Chatham, and the Council authorized him to proceed to replace the engineer if the public works committee saw fit. Lib ry Park Deputy Reevve Crich speaking for the general government committee reported that, they were waiting for the staking of the new curb to be placed around two sides of the Library Park. The Clinton, Citizens' Horticultural Society had offered to pay the $9,0 cost of having the curbs putin, and the Town employees would do the dig- ging and preparing for the job. Sewerage Back Up Possible reason (for the trouble of sewerage back-up being exper enced was given by Deputy Reeve Crich as a result of a talk with the engineer who had surveyed the town for the sewerage sys- tem: possibly when the motors at the pumping station were changed from 25 to 60 -cycle they had been slowed down; perhaps, too, the sewers needed cleaning. Schoen- hals stated that the trouble had come before the change in cycle. Mayor Agnew expressed his opin- ion that much of the trouble was caused by the extra surface water which was being run into sewers. To IVehase Coal Mayor Agnew discussed the sub- ject of purchasing coal, stating that he was not in favour of the law that prohibited a man from selling to the municipality, just because he was a municipal of - Mere. Reeve Nediger said he would not ask for anything in that line, but he backed up the deputy reeve's suggestion that coal be. purchased now at, slimmer prices.
