Described by his principal as a good student and "quite the lead- er in any sport." Donald -is presi- dent of the student council and leader of the Altar Boys' Society of Dubin's St. Patrick's Church, The most interesting experience of his school career, he feels, was a -trip by members of his class to the Stratford Shakespearean Fes. tival last year.

A by-law has been prepared ex- propriating certain lands in the Township of McKillop, from lot 25, con IV in the Township of McKillop, This is the land 1'e- quired to construct the new bridge approaches for the proposed new � bridge north of Seaforth. We re- commend that this by-law be ap- proved. A by-law was passed approxi- mately a year ago which made it illegal for Huron County employ- ees to become unionized, At that time the Road Committee suggest- ed to the Huron County HdghwaYs Department employees that they form their own employeesassoci- ation and suggested that they meet with the Road Committee to discuss any grievances which they t night have. Subsequently in Jan- uary- of this year representatives of the Huron County Employees' Association met with the Road Committee and requested that we CI provide for sick -leave bens- ; ills. and (2) increase the hourly rate. After considerable discus- ; Finn and investigation the follow- ing hourly rates were set: For labour 31.00 - 31.20 per hour; truck driver 31.30 per hour; ma chine operator .31.311 - 31.40 per ' hour: skilled labour 31.30 - $1.40 ;ler hour. I Since all Court I-Iouse employ- ees received increases in salary in January, and since we increased t)te hourly rate to Huron County employees by 10c per hour, it was felt that we should increase the foreman's rate. It was decided to increase the Forman's salary by $2174,00 per year. Under the new schedule the foremen receive from $337.30 per month to 3450.00 per month, depending on type of work and length of service. I Your Committee was advised that the rates we had been pay- tu 7 for rented trucks for the past ,.cveral years were now below that being paid by other concerns doing similar work, and that we would have considerable difficul- ty in hiring enough trucks to car- ry out our construction work, It WAS therefore decided to increase the rate being paid hired trucks in line with that being paid 11y ethers, the new rate being: 5 -yd. truck $4.00 per hoar; 3 -yd. truck 54.50 per hour; 7 -yd. truck 35.00 per hour. This rate includes the driver whe is not a Huron County employee, and therefore does not receive the fringe benefits receiv- ed by employees. We recommend that the per. 11 too.0111,1„1111,n11111m,"1rr1rrlm,ee 1,11111,11,1)111,,,11,,, County Roads Committee Report We, your Road committee, wish to report on matters referred to us at or before the March ses- sion of Council. A by-law has been prepared which will provide sick -leave ben- efits for Huron County Highways Department employees identical to those already being received by the remainder of Huron County employees. We recommend that this by-law be approved. Since the greater percentage of employees of the County are road employees. and 01111147 we have several employees with more than 39 years service, we felt that the clause which made the sick -leave h,'nefits retroactive to e0lantelee- Inent of empinwment was rather liberal. It would cost the County in the neighborhood of $20,000 to do this. \Ve do feel however, that the benefits should be retro- active for a certain period of time and decided that 14) years would be a reasonable period. We also feel that it would not be fair to the Highways Department em• irloyees to have benefits that were not equal to those being received by the remainder of Coftnt1 of Huron employees, and would suggest that the original by- law• be amended to include this 10 -year retroactive clause. If Council does not see fit to amend this clause in the original by-law we will have no alternative but to have these benefits retroactive to commencement of employment for highways employees and ab- sorb the cost as mentioned above. At the January session of Coun- ty Council the Road Committee was requested to study the ques- tion of rebates to 'Urban Munici- palities. We recommend that the grant to urban municipalities un- der Sections 53 and 56.
