Main Street better due to renovations
BY SUSAN OXFORD
Seaforth's Main Street is looking
more like it did many years ago
thanks to three more businesses
completing minor restoration work
to their buildings. All of Main

SEAFORTH AND DISTRICT
COMMUNITY CENTRES will
meet on Thursday, December 13 at
8 p.m in the Committee Room at
the Community Centres.
THE SEAFORTH PLANNING
ADVISORY COMMITTEE will
hold its regular December meeting
Monday December 17 at 7 p.m. in
the Council Chambers, Town Hall.
SEAFORTH COUNCIL'S
regular November meeting has been
rescheduled from Tuesday, Decem-
ber 11, 1990 to Tuesday December
18 at 8 p.m. in the Council Cham-
bers Town Hall.
THE LOCAL ARCHITEC-
TURAL ADVISORY COMMIT-
TEE will meet Wednesday, Decem-
ber 19 at 7:30 p.m. in the Council
Chambers, Town Hall.
Street has been declared a Heritage
Designation area, and renovations
should be done in the spirit of the
Victorian Streetscape ideal. The
Local Architectural Conservation
Advisory Committee (LACAC)
helped with the recent restorations,
providing advice on the work and
grants from the Ontario Ministry of
Citizenship and Culture.
The grants are administered
through the Town of Seaforth of-
fice. LACAC approves of the work
and assists the affected property
owners by giving advice from the
planning stage through to
completion of the work. All the
work must be done according to
ministry guidelines to be eligible
for grant money. Grants are
available for any Heritage Desig-
nated property regardless if it is a
place of business or a house. Most
of the restoration work carried out
on Heritage Designated properties
in Seaforth has been done by local
contractors.
Work on the building housing thc
optometrist office was done some
time ago. Some of the woodwork
was repaired and other parts of it
were replaced. All the exterior
woodwork was painted and a new
door installed in the doorway
leading upstairs to apartments.
Grants from the Ontario Ministry of
Culture and Citizenship were
granted to the owners of the buil-
ding to help them with the cost of
the restcration. The grants cover 50
per cent of the cost up to a
maximum of $3,000.
Shinen's Mens' and Ladies' Wear
has cleared the front of its store of
black ceramic tile and cleaned and
repaired the brickwork underneath.
The front door and windows are
remaining the same at this time, but
a showcase has been installed in the
front window. A wooden fascia
board was constructed by a local
carpentry company and now hangs
above the front window and door.
All of the work done on thc
Shinen's building was not covered
by grants, but the brick cleaning
and repairs were given 50 per cent
of the cost by the provincial
government in a grant up to $3,000.
The Frank Kling Ltd. store had
black cerami,: tile on its exterior,
too, and removed it to expose the
brick work underneath. An awning
from the front window was also
removed. The existing marquis was
