Chamber of Commerce The Grand Bend Chamber of Commerce sent council a letter asking council to clarify it's pos- ition in relationship to the Cham- ber. The Chamber feels the council is not co-operating with them. Councilman Bob Simpson said "If we say no to people, then wg are unco-operative, but how often can we say yes?" A response was made to the Chamber saying that council felt the Chamber represented the business community of Grand Bend and felt they had a reas- onable working relationship with the Chamber. Council said it's willing to remain open to discussion on any topic. Council did approve a request for a sign permit from the Ch- amber of Commerce. The Chamb- er has purchased a readograph sign and wants to put it up on the village land adjacent to the Bank of Montreal. Council app- roved the request provided the sign was used to advertise com- munity projects only, not comm- ercial.

Grand Bend Council still does not know if provincial funding will be available to help pay for this spring's severe ice storm damage. At council 's meeting Monday night a letter was read from D' Arcy McKeough, Treasurer of Ontario, stating that a policy is being developed for the entire area where storm damage occur- red, When a position has been decided on, grant money may be available. However, the council is still not certain just how much the final cost of the storm damage will be. Council also received news from the Ministry of the Environ- ment pertaining to the remov- al of tree branches hanging over the Ausable river. The Ministry says that while they do not become directly involved with branch removal, some funding night be avail- able through the Ausable-Bay- field Conservation Authority. A summer program of the Auth- ority might be able to include such a task. A plea for financial aid for the planned erection of an arena in Exeter was rejected by counc- il. . Council member Bob Simpson said "Exeter is just too far away. If we had another winter like this past one we'd never get there:" The general feeling of council was that most of the village residents used either the Thed- ford or Zurich arenas and would continue to do so. Clean-up days in the village this year will take place May 18, 19 and 20 and May 26, 27 and 28. A flyer has been sent to all taxpayers with full details. Council members discovered the village washrooms and bath house are all insured for vandal- ism. Bob Simpson wondered if it was too late to put in a claim Don't be shy - give Don a try! DON'S GEST-VALLA FOOD MARKET 236-4316 CLOVER LEAF SOLID WHI' for damages done last summer when numerous incidents dest- royed showers, toilets, sinks and other fixtures, It is estimated that it will take over $1,000 to fix the show- ers alone. The matter is being looked into, but it was the opinion of the insurance company 's represent- ative that a claim could not be an . accumulation of damages. Each specific damage must be entered as an individual claim. Council had been planning on paying the full cost of the dam- ages themselves. Bill Adelman appealed to council to have his zoning chang- ed from D, (unspecified develop- ment) to RMH (Residential Mob- ile Homes). After some discuss- ion, council agreed. Sherwood Properties also appl- ied for a zone change, but were tinned down by council. They may appeal to the OMB if they wish.
