At their meeting August 3, councii was given a report from councillor Betty CJraber on the present state of sidewalks south of main street. "Three blocks of sidewalk to be replaced were measured totalling 733 feet," said Mrs. Graber. Included was a section from the Brussels Legion south to Bryans' corner, from the Bank of Commerce to the fire hall and north of the downtown section "where asphalt could be considered". "I don't like the ,use of asphalt, but it's better than nothing", she said. Reeve Cal Krauter said it's much cheaper than concrete. He wondered of the sidewalk condition from the former Queen's Hotel to the Legion. "Could it not be covered with a two inch layer of cement? It's a lot cheaper (than a complete new sidewalk)," he explained. :'If two inches on top of old stuff works, it suits(mc fine," said councillor Gord Work- man. Mrs. Graber said she looked into replacing U only broken sections of sidewalk, "but only a third could be saved". She explained from the Legion south, "The sidewalk is up and down. It's an old. crudely sidewalk.', Councillor Hank Ten Pas felt there should be "a decent sidewalk from the Callander Nursing Home", north to the down town wide and four inches thick wasconstructed for $3.360, which did not include digging. "It's not worth using cheap cement and doing a cheap job on the sidewalks," said councillor 'fen Pas. "You would save less than 5100". He said the minimum thickness is three and a half inches. Not taken into account was the sidewalk in front of the liquor store. It is over 100 feet long and 12 feet wide. The sidewalk is to be cutback to eight feet to accommodate trees, benches and landscaping, part of the Brussels beautification program. The LCBO is willing to cover 50 per cent of the costs. A motion was passed to.advertise tenders for the construction of a sidewalk from Catherine to Hawk Street, 36S feet long, four feet wide, four inches thick and ramped at the corners and for the construction of the liquor store sidewalk, 100 feet by eight feet wide and two inches thick. Council decided to "shave" the top of the liquor store sidewalk and bond two inches of concrete over the remainder to cut costs. In other counci! news: council was informed that approximately 30 tree stumps �kere removed on village property at a cost of $420. This is an average of $14 per stump. Three building permits were approved: to $pence Scott to install a new roof and extend one room at a cost of $2,000; Gibson Willis, partial new roof, $2.000; and Ken Sholdice. partial new siding. 5900. core.. ett When asked by councillor Stu Parker about Sewer hookups are progressing with 60 51 installing an asphalt sidwalk from the bank to to be connected.

Informed that the 1982 budget had allotted $3,500 for new sidewalks, Mrs. Graber said it All accounts were approved to be paid would not be enough to replace the amount except two. she had measured. She said it would cost over Council adjourned their meeting at 10:40 $5,000 to replace two blocks of sidewalk. p.m. The next regular meeting is scheduled During 1981, 560 feet of sidewalk, four feet for Tuesday.
