Members met Aug. 16 and decided to call their group the Huron Park Industrial Association (HPIA). While incorporation is still in process, Exi-Plast Custom Moulding presi- dent Frank Zawalsky and sales and market- ing manager Marianne Benson will be acting president and secretary, respectively. Zawalsky told the Times -Advocate Monday all businesses in the park will join the HPIA. He said the focus of the group is to pursue Huron Park issues such as infrastructure and security, as well as promoting the businesses in the park and hosting events both in Huron Park and supporting non-profit organizations throughout the county. Zawalsky said Huron Park businesses origi- nally banded together about four years ago during negotiations with the province con- cerning the businesses buying their Huron Park property. He said that group "fell by the wayside" when the province implemented a "gag order" during negotiations. With most businesses now having bought their buildings and land in Huron Park, Zawalsky said there has been a tremendous change in attitude in the park. "The atmosphere has really picked up," he said, adding businesses are optimistic about the future. The new group will hold regular meetings and members will eventually vote on positions such as president, Zawalsky said. POLICE BRIEFS Shoplifter arrested EXETER — On Aug. 18 a male party was caught shoplifting at the Unusual Finds Dollar Discount Store on Main Street in Exeter. The male was recognized from a prior incident in July where he had been caught on video surveillance eating product without paying. On Aug.18 the male fled from the store owners after police were called and was later found hiding at a residence in Exeter. A 38 -year-old Central Huron man will attend Goderich Provincial Court Aug. 20. He faces two counts of theft under $5,000 and two counts of breaching rec- ognizance. OPP reminds boaters HURON — Over the past few weeks, officers from the Huron OPP have stopped a number of boaters and they have not been able to surrender the vessel registration certificate for their boat. The Canada Shipping Act clearly states that a true copy of the vessel registration must be carried on any boat that is powered by a motor in excess of 10 horsepower or 7.5 kilowatts. Any boater who fails to surrender this documentation can be charged and face a fine of $305. Marine officers suggest keeping the original in a safe and secure location at a full time residence and to carry a photocopy with them anytime they go out on their boat. The copy that they do bring out with them should be laminated or can be placed in a watertight zip lock style plastic bag, which will keep it dry and in condition that is readable.
