PPE COMMUNITY B ARD
TO 0FI,ERATE CEMETERIES
The Seaforth town council at
its June meeting Monday evening
considered a wide range of topics
from street signs to cemetery de-
ficits. All members' of council
were present and Mayor Christie
presided.
Councillor 1'rlabkirk told of the
work donee on the streets. The
biggest project was on Gouinloek
street along side Balchviu Hard-
ware where the curb between the
road and the sidewalk had been
covered with black top to provide
better marking, He estimated the,
town hada saved a considerable
sum by doing the work. 1714
tons. of asphalt were used and
then the trucking and rolling
were the other main items.
Council considered renting a
sprayer for spray patchingonthe
streets. If the egpipment is satis-
factory council will consider pur-
chase price $350. Councillors said
the tar would cost about $200 and
the town supplies the stone chips.
Other years spray patching done
by the Cornet Co, has cost $800
to $1200.
Councillor Habkirk said ar-
rangements had been made with
the Centel firm for oiling the
roads,
Councillors suggested putting
• lip a couple of big signs on Main
street directing motorists to the
free parking area in Victoria
Park,
Reeve Scotus led a discussion
about the parking lines on Matu
Street being too close to the cor-
ners, Councillor Habkirk thought
conditions were greatly improved.
Council debated the pros and
cons of the troublesome stop
signs at James and Ann streets,
some councillors saying they hail
driven through the signs on oc-
casion. Mayor Christie • said he
thought the bylaw on street signs
would come up for revision when
the extension on West William
street was completed and the
James Street situation could be
rectified.
Councillor Baldwin said the
property committee had arrang-
ed for Mr, Bushie, tow employ-
ee, to vacate the house at the old
waterworks and find new quart-
ers. ,
Mr. Baldwin said he had con -
suited Mr. Kling and they had
agreed it would be better to post-
pone work at the town hall. It
could be resumed later if men
were available,
Councillor Baldwin said recre-
ation park had been completed
and be thought everyone was well
satisfied. More people were at-
tending the ball games.
IIe said an inquiry had been
received from a local, contractor
asking if the town would sell the
cement mixer, Councillors agreed
that the mixer was not used as
much as formerly but thought
they would prefer to consider an
offer rather than set a price on
the machine which is equipped
with rubber tires and was said
to have eget something like $500.
Council heard a delegation from
---"Northside United Church on the
matter of the Maltland Bank
Cemetery which is incurring de-
ficits each year. In, discussion af-
ter the delegation left council de -
Bided to have a committee of
Councillors Baldwin, Brady and
Turnbull approach the various
Protestant Churches which . are
burying in the cemetery. Coun-
cillor Turnbull pointed out that
it was not proposed that the
town would take over the ceme-
tery, but rather give a little
leadership to bring together the
churches 'which could appoint a
board to administer the ceme-
tery. The board if it was feasible
could look after all the cemeter-
lee connected with the seven
Protestant Churches in this area.
Town Clerk Wilson asked
about court of revision. He said
he had an application from Mar-
ley Signs for a rebate. Council
agreed a meeting should be held
soon,
Councillor Turnbull said there
had been no reply from. the Mc-
Laren firm in connection with
. doing the engineering work on
sewer. extensions. He thought the
sewer committee would have to
have a special meeting in a cou-
ple of days.
Mayor Christie told council in
reporting for the industrial com-
mittee that "things are going
along real well"- He said there
aright be a special meeting in a
few days.
Councillor Baldwin said no
land had been purchased yet for
the street extension: they had 'to
get the survey lines first. The
PUC had agreed to extend the
water main at no expense to the
council
Mayor Christie said council
had been "swamped" with appli-
cations for the police - positions..
The applications for chief of po-
lice had -been largely from ex-
perienced men, but the ones for
constable were mostly •, inexper-
ienced. - -
It was reported that over 85
applications had been received by
Saturday but there were no local
applications:
Councillors said the crown at-
torney had offered to. screen those
considered for appointment: ''
An .application 'from. Airs. Lei -
the Miller to start a'beauty shop
at her home an Goderich- Street
West brought the comment the
permission was not necessary as
she was a property owner but the
room used would be subject . to
business- assessment.
