Goderich Opposed to Huron County
p y
Parking Lot at Court House ' lidding
By Shirley J. Keller
"If the parking lots go in
we'll paint the things green,"
remarked Herbert Such, reeve
of Goderich, at last Thursday's
sitting of Huron County Goan -
ail. He was referring to a pro-
posal by the property commit-
tee to alleviate unsatisfactory
parking conditions by providing
".parking facilities for approxi-
mately 50 cars at the north end
and the south end of the Court
House".
The Goderich reeve was op-
posed to the installation of the
parking lots in the Court House
Square because it could be con-
sidered a "desecration' and "an
asphalt jungle" by Goderich
people who appreciated the
beauty 'of the park. Such urged
councillors to defer any action
on the proposal until Goderich
council had had an opportunity
to meet and perhaps come up
with some alternate suggestion
which would be just as accept-
able to members.
Carl Dalton, reeve of ,Sea -
forth, who is chairman of the
property committee, retaliated,
"We don't intend to be buffalo-
ed by the town of Goderich. We
were supposed to be guaranteed
parking as long as the court
house existed. County person-
neI are being penalized and I
don't think Goderich has a park-
ing problem."
Reeve Elgin Thompson, Tuck-
ersmith, noted, "If they're
(Goderich) going to offer some-
thing better, we're sure glad to.
hear of 5t."
Dalton explained the parking
lots would cost approximately
$7,480 and would be paved and
feature bumper blocks with
names on them to discourage
shoppers in Goderich from us-
ing the facilities. The county's
proposed 70 -foot wide parking
lot would put an end to con-
stant worries over parking tick-
ets pinned by Goderich police
to oars left in one spot over
the two-hour limit.
While councillors and cer-
tain employees have received
special consideration in the
past, Reeve Stewart Procter, of
Morris, complained to council
that he had received a parking
ticket, his first in 50 years of
driving, in Goderich while on
county business.
Agreement was reached to
defer immediate action on the
parking lots, but only for a
period of two weeks when work
could begin if Goderich officials
