Group Delta project is administered by the Huron -Perth Centres for children and youth. schedule change The strategy, which wasto have original- ,ly started in September 1966 and take nine months to complete, will include a background as well as strategy report, and is valued at approximately. $12,000. The Mainstreet committee said the Mainstreet project started late in September and has occupied more of the coordinator's time than was originally estimated. Based on that fact it was felt the schedule should be altered to have the background study completed by mid-June and the strategy by mid-September. The schedule change would allow the study to include a more in-depth survey of both the existing businesses and Seaforth consumers than the terms of reference call- ed for, therefore providing a more useful product in the end. The study would also be able to incor- porate the findings of the Heritage Canada Resource team visit, set for Next week. The Team's report and recommendations are .expected to be available by late May. Provincial- Minstry officials in London have already verbally approved of the change, but a council resolution and letter to make it formal, are required.
