To make it easier to control
the "clog problem" which is
widespread across Ontario,
the government has set re-
gulations to be followed in
each municipality with the
municipal council
establishing the amount of
the fine, stibject to govern-
ment approval., ,
Councillors Jim Papple
and John Brownridge
thought the $50 fine was
steep but agreed to it when
clerk treasurer, John
McLachlan explained that
dog complaints are re-
sponsible for many of the
telephone calls to the
township office. (A person
complaining about a dog at
large must contact the clerk,
who will in turn alert the
animal control officer for
action).
Members of council re-
presenting the township on
local fire area boards for 1980
will be paid at the rate of 515

attended. This is up from the
512 paid in 1979. As well,
Cleave Coombs who re-
presents the township on
the board of the Seaforth
Community Hospital, will be
paid 515 up from the $10 he
was paid in 1979. He
attended 20 board or
committee meetings in 1980.

the townshi p that the new

request from James
Robson of Vanastra was
refused for an asphalt base
for an outdoor skating rink.
Young James requested help
to make the skating rink in a
small municipal' park in
Vanastra so that he and other
children at Vanastra could
have a place to play hockey
because "the police had
warned him not to play
hOckey on the roadways."
Members of council
agreed -asphalt was not a
proper base for a rink at any
rate, as ice melts quickly on
the black surface. A cement
base or tramped snow makes
a better base, they said.
James is to be notified
council is unable to provide
the outdoor rink for him and
his fellow hockey players.
