The Huron Expositor, 1982-09-15, Page 11Reeve retiring Noakes to .n Reeve Paul Neilands, a ten-year member of Hensall council, announced at the village's September meeting he will not seek a second term as reeve. Councillors Dick Peckham, Cecil Pepper and John Skea all plan to stand for re-election. Minnie Noakes said her name will be on the ballot for the, position of reeve. The continuing transformation of the downtown area was one off the main topics discussed by the council. As soon as OMB approval has been "received, Hesnall will ask for an initial advance of $1041,000 for the Business Improvement Area (BIA) plan. Charlie Hay and his crew were given permission to work on Richmond Street's sidewalks from Nelson to Highway 4 as part of the mainstreet revitalization. The side- walk on the south side will be replaced, and repaired where necessary on the north. After discussing the Hensall B1A's request that the village take over mainte- nance of the new flower beds and boxes and the newly sodded areas, council decided to leave the question of who should pay for the new council to determine, as any resolution passed now could conceivably be rescinded by a newly elected council. Works superintendent Don Towton pre- sented two possible solutions to the catch basin at the curve of the arena: build up the parking lot, or go across the street and r Moffat Correspondent RENA CALDWELL 262-5935 Mr. Don Moffatt conducted his first service in St. An- drew's Church, Kippen on Sunday, Sept. 5. His sermon i connect with the big main there. If the latter course is chosen, he suggested it should be done before the scheduled asphalting of that section of road. Clerk Elizabeth Oke said Burns Ross has offered to take a look at the problem, and give his opinion without charge. Cecil Pepper advised council to apply for an available Wintario grant for a new self-propelled ice machine for the arena. The old one has already exceeded its lifespan. The mystery of the black soot in the arena has,' not yet been solved. The ministry of health has determined the composition of the' annoyance, but not its origin.

Possible fall programs being considered include children's gymnastics, co-ed volleyball,girls ringette and work- shops in flower arranging. needlepoint, knitting, ceramics, papier toleing, water colouring, pottery, oil painting and coro- nary pulomonary resuscitation (CPR) if enough interest is shown. ; Council will ask for new quotes to apply aluminum over the town hall's fascia and sofit and replacement of eavestroughing after discovering the internal gutter system also needs extensive repair.
