MAY HAVE VOTE ON SEWERS THIS YEAR A plan to make a start on a sewerage system for Seaforth was submitted to Seaforth Council at the regular meeting on Monday William Empey, by W 11 rn p y, sanitary inspector of Huron •County Health Unit, Council will receive an esti- mate on the cost of laying a sewer in the lanes behind the stores on both sides of Main ,Street and con- necting to a large septic tank to be located near Silver Creek at the south boundary of Seaforth. A chlorinator would be used and dis- posal could be run into the creek, instead of a weeper system. Additions could .be made to the sewer from year to year and event- ually a disposal plant could be con- structed. Mayor McMaster said the project could be submitted to the ratepay- ers at the November elections and in the meantime full information could be secured to give to the electors. All members of council were pre- sent and the Mayor occupied the chair. Councillor Crich reported that 50 plaques with two flags each have been ordered for the coronation celebration. Each plaque is 2 feet by 31 inches. Twenty-five poles along Main Street will be decorated, Mr. Fred Snow approached coun- cil on behalf of the Seaforth Agri- cultural Soelety for the annual grant. More accommodation will have to be built or tents provided for the two regional cattle shows coning this year. Councillor Christie asked 'if more effective safety regulations are ,possible for the public crossing the race track on fair day. Council voted the annual grant of 3125.00. Huron Municipal Officers Asso- ciation will meet at Hensall on May 13th at 10 a.m., Town Clerk D. 11. Wilson announced. Mayor McMast- er said he would be going to Toron- to on Tuesday `to attend the 80th anniversary of his graduation. The department has sent .notice that subsidy this year will be paid on road expenditures up to $7,000. Last year the maximum was $9,000. Tax prepayment receipts to date total $5660, the treasurer reported. Street committee report was giv- en by chairman E. H. Close. Three loads of hot patch were applied but was not a success as something was the matter with it. Market street has been graded and gravelled from the flax mill to the new school, ditches on several streets have been cleaned out and gravel applied. Oiling is ex- pected next week. Signs are being put up at more stop streets. A Cent- ralia contractor had offered to dis- cuss with council resurfacing of ce- ment sidewalks by applying tarvia. 800 .bags of cement have been used on street work this year Councillor Close said, and much work is to be done. All work had been done only after consulting with the other members of his committee, Mr. Close stated. He had asked Clerk E. Chesney of Tuckersmith to 'find out if that township would pay half cost of putting a drain down the boundary street. Mr. J. E. Keating appeared be- fore council and presented a report of the .Seaforth Memorial Centre and also a cheque of over 32,000.00 covering interest and principal for this year on the debentures. This would amount to about two mills saving on the tax rate, he said. The board had decided to go ahead with flooring the arena, the estimated cost being around $10,400 for a pol- ished top. The firm doing this work is now working at St. Marys and then will go to Exeter before they can come to Seaforth, he said. The Community Centre had a very suc- cessful year, but it had taken much hard work, and more work will be needed to make it a success as more and more a r t i f i c i'a l ice rinks are being put in at other .places. The Legion had expressed willingness to continue co-operation with the bingos to help'pay for the floor. Mayor McMaster congratulated Mr. Keating on the excellent report and said special recognition was due him for bringing a cheque to coun- cil for over 32,000, whereas most deputations come asking for money. Mr. Frank Kling, chairman of Seaforth P.U.C., was present and asked council for authorization to lay an extension of the water main to the town limits on Goderich St. East. At present 21 families are served by a single 1% inch pipe, he said. The cost for a four inch main would be $3400 or a six inch ,amain 33900. He asked that the town loan the funds to the P.U.C. Reeve Scoins said the south end of town had only a small pipe and no fire Hydrant for three blocks. Councillor Sharpe thought the P.U.C. should take care of the inter- est charges on the loan. A motion to lay a six inchmain on Goderich street east was carried unanimously. Mr, McLaren of James McLaren Associates, . Toronto, who made a drainage survey and map of Sea- forth last fall was present, Mayor McMaster said the plan they had prepared was excellent for sewerage, but contained no data on surface drainage. What the town had wanted was a plan of ex- isting drainage, and levels and sizes required for future drainage. Continued on Page 6 WILL CELEBRATE 25TH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY Mr. and Mrs, J.
