Authority to inform The Ausable-Bayfield Conservation Authority, in trying to keep its watershed residents informed about matters concerning them, is starting a question and answer column in this newspaper. The questions which appear in this first column are ones which are often asked of members and staff of the Conservation Authority. We would ap- preciate any questions you have about the Authority, its work and programs. Please send them to: The Ausable-Bayfield Conservation Authority, Box 459, Exeter, Ontario NOM 1S0 Whatisa Conservation authority? A Conservation Authority is a local, self-governing organization set up under the Province of Ontario Con- servation Authorities Act. Its responsibility is to manage the renewable natural resources within ,a water- shed. There are 38 Con- servation ° Authorities in Ontario covering ap- proximately 45,000 square miles of land. The Ausable- Bayfield Conservation Authority is concerned with 1,000 square miles of that total. It is a local organization whose membership consists of one representative from each municipality found within the Ausable River and Bayfield River watersheds. These representatives are appointed annually by, the municipal councils. A Conservation Authority is funded by. your local tax dollars through a levy on each member municipality and grants from the Province of Ontario. The levies are in proportion to the municipalities' equalized assessment. This municipal contribution amounts to only $3.50 per person, since the Ausable-Bayfield Conser- vation Authority qualifies for a 75.. percent provincial grant. Golden. Glimpses It is vacation- time for most people, and a number of staff who prefer summer vacations to winter ones are away. However, the residents are enjoying the many visitors who are drop- ping in for a visit or to take them out to dinner. For some, it is a once a year oc- casion if they live at a dis- tance. The sympathy of residents and staff is extended to the family of the late Mrs. Nan- cy Schwartzentruber. The regular monthly birthday party was held on Tuesday evening hosted by the UCW of Kippen United Church. A program of musical numbers was presented by a children's group also some old time numbers on the •piano and violin were very much en- joyed: Following the program birthday gifts were presented to Mrs. Gertrude Gittus and Mr. Roy MacDonald who celebrated birthdays in July. A delicious lunch and a social time were then enjoyed. We welcome Mrs. Matilda Rau and Mr. John Petty as new residents to the Home. Cleanup Continued from page 1 Verberne. Council took no action on the request as they felt the parties concerned were aware of the construction of the drain at the time and that Scott had hooked up to the drain and was benefiting from the drain. The village may have some Christmas decorations this year but it's going to have to be on the initiative of a body other than the village. After examining two catalogues of . Christmas decorations and noting the high cost, council said some form of grant from the village could forthcoming if another group approached the village about festive decorations. In a remark that drew a humorous response from his fellow councillors, Thiel said with reference to the number of dollars that could be spent on decorations, "It will lay a lot of sidewalk, coloured sidewalk." In other business, council: Wrote taxes off totalling $1.,233.66.
