Maxwell told council Monday all the pipe for the village's storm sewers will be installed by the end of week, well ahead of schedule. Still to be installed are the system's catch -basins Maxwell said. The works superintendent said that while Omega Construction has worked at a rapid pace, there have been a few problems with drains from homes not being properly hooked up. "It's nice to get it in quick but it's also nice to get it in right", Reeve Harold Knight remarked. Asked how the village was doing in their snow removal budget Maxwell replied "good", which drew a humorous reaction from Bayfield council has first meemeeting their duty during their periods of office, and greeted the new councillors. He outlined methods of procedure, stating that regular meetings would con- tinue to be held on the 1st and 3rd Monday of each month, except on holidays when they will be re- scheduled at the call of the Reeve. A brief council meeting was then. held for which ratepayers, present for the inauguration, were invited to remain - and also for refreshments.

In another matter relating to the storm sewers, Klungel said the "extras" associated with the project will total about $10,000. Knight said this figure was "not out of line" considering the size of the contract which is in the $500,000 range. Another area which the village appears to have made progress in, is the control of dogs. After reviewing dog catcher Wilma Hoffman's report which stated a total of seven dogs had been caught for October and November, councillor Harry Klungel said "It's really noticable ... There's no dog problem". Knight also paid a com- pliment to the dog catcher saying "I think she's doing a wonderful job". One of the areas which pleased council was that the animal control program was paying for itself with almost -$700 in revenue received, compared to control costs of a little less than $500. It's the time of year for money to flow in and out of village's coffers with ac- counts totalling over $300,000 being paid at Monday's meeting. One piece of good financial news was received, that being the final capital grant payment of $127,512.50 towards the community centre has been made available. Clerk -treasurer Betty Oke predicted the village would have to borrow on a short- term basis about $125,000 to tie the project over until the Wintario funds are received. Knight reported the community centre's fund raising committee ha`s agreed to stay together for another year to finish off the campaign drive. -In other news related toβ€” the community centre, Oke said she will ask the Ontario Provincial Police to drop in at the events which take place at the new facility.
