Two representatives from the Zurich and District Chamber of Commerce appeared before the council with a request for the vill». age to again belong to the Mid - Western Ontario Development As- sociation. Trustees agreed to the village being a member, on the condition that the Chamber would appoint two men to act as a plan- ning hoard, along with one member of the council. This, they felt, is the only way there would be any value in belonging to the Associa, tion. An application for town water service for Louis Schilbe, who is erecting a new home in the south section of the village, was granted. In other business the council decided to contact local insurance agent, Jake Haberer, in regards to writing up a liability policy on the fair grounds.
