sary action to see that cars are not left

THUl2.SDAY, JANUARY 14, 1994.
(Continued from Page 1)
$SAFORTH COUNCIL
Pryde, M,I',R, will be 'present toex-
plain about 'housing. Mayor McMast-
er said only three men 'from the
whole county had attended last
meeting and better attendance is
hoped for. 'Councillors Sharp, Scott
and the Mayor were tentatively
named to attend.
High praise was paid by the coun-
cil to the work of James Stewart and
J. E. Keating for what they have
accomplished on the Community
Centre board. When the arena is
completely paid for the town is• to
take it over, but in the meantime
the original board carries on, Coun-
cillor Christie explained that the
board had paid off last year all in-
terest and principal payments ,owing
to date but of course payments
would continue to come due until
all debentures are redeemed. Coun-
cillor Scott remarked that bingos had
"flopped", 'having lost their appeal
all over the oountrY.
The usual money bylaw was pass-
ed and the bylaw to provide for ex-
penditure on streets and roads 'main-
tenance at '59000 sante as last year's
bylaw. Actual expenditure last year
was $9300, but the department had
reduced it to $7000 for basing grant.
Seaforth had always tried to keep
close to their estimate and had not
been cut nearly as much as some
places.
The meeting was brought to an
end with a questions and answers
period from which this information
was gleaned:
The blinker light has been sent to
the states for repairs by the North-
ern Electric Co. and no word is given
when it will be working again. A
blinker light costs around 5375,
while a stop light costs around
$3000. No grant is available on the
blinker light. Councillor Sharp asked
if a blinker could be put up at the
public school crossing on the high-
way, but council felt it not neces-
sary.
Reeve Scoins said no stop signs
have been put up south of the tracks
and said a couple of corners required
stop signs. Councillor Close said
four signs were stili on hand and
could be erected in the spring where
necessary.
Councillor Crich asked i£ a busi-
nes tax entitles a merchant to sell
anything and everything. The an-
swer was yes.
Councillor Crich asked who will be
responible for any damages to water
mains or drains when sewer is being
put down. According to the contract
'(which is not yet signed) the con-
tractor is liable for all damages
while work is in progress.
Councillor Crich then wanted to
know if $3000 per year would be
the cost of operating the sewerage
disposal .plant, to include heat,
chlorination and a man for two or
three hours a day, He pointed out
this would mean another three mills
on the tax rate over the cost of in-
stalling the system.
Councillor Christie asked if this
cost would be paid for in the water
rates of those using the sewer.
Reeve Scoins said that would mean
a total cost ,of over $100 per year
to every user,
Councillor Crich asked if the mill
rate will pay for installation, and
plant operation cost will be paid by
the 100 or more users. He thought
all the facts should be brought to
the public attention, and also the
existing conditions which make nec-
essary putting in a sewer system.
Mayor McMaster said the hospit-
al could be connected to the system
without using pumping, the sewer
according to the engineer would
come up Goderich street to West
Street, then over to James Street
and west on James Street to the hos-
pital, the deepest cut needed being
eleven feet in depth.
Councillor Christie wanted to
know how many of the council had
seen conditions at the dump gate
recently. He urged that signs be
Treated forbidding the removal of
unk from the dump as things are
getting scattered around badly. This
was left to the property committee.
Councillor Leslie suggested that
Buehie could be placed in charge
f the dump as one of his duties. Ap-
ointment of a man to look after
he dump was laid over.

Stop Look Listen
If your oil burner -flares, flutters, or gives off smoke
If it leaves a film on your furniture or smudge on your walls
If it Teaks oil from faulty connections
If it withers your house plants
If it makes your head ache, upsets your stomach, or dries
out your throat
If it gives the kids a hacking cough
If it sputters more than usual
If it puffs and you can see black specks floating about the

If it acts as if it would cause a fire
If you are afraid it may _blow' up
Don't go to bed until you have checked it
Day or night call your repairman
