Hay seeks planning grant
Hay township council endorsed

Ministry of Labor's approval
under the terms of the 1971
Building Code.
The resolution asks the Minis-
try of Labor to use the stand-
ards 'of the National Building
Code that were in effect at the
time of construction or renova-
tion of an arena when determin-
ing the structural capabilities of
a building. That is, provided
the building was originally con-
structed or renovated with the
approval of the Ministry:

the intention of the Exeter coun-
cil to ask the Ministry to ignore
its responsibility in guarantee-
ing the safety of public arenas,
however, it is hard to visualize
what new standards may be in
vogue ten years from now. How
can the ministry expect areas to
meet standards adopted five or
ten years after the building was
renovated or constructed?
