There is some ambiguousness within the Law, as it states that the smoking area cannot be more than 25% of the total workspace in size, and areas in which the public are served are exempt from the regulation. However, areas behind a ser- vice counter cannot be designated as a smoking area, although they are for all in- tents and purposes in a public service area. NOVEMBER WORK During the month of November, the Seaforth PUC completed the hydrant flushing in town, and installed 30 new high- pressure sodium streetlights along the north end of Main St. In spite of the cold and the ground frost which extends down a foot in places, the crew were able to in- stall underground hydro to three new homes on Duke St. and George St. The year-end work in Brussels was completed with the installation of three hydro poles and work on the Dublin upgrading pro- gram included the replacement of a 40 foot pole on the Main St. Bell Canada will be reimbursing the PUC for the cost of two new poles which were installed on James St. and Adams St. BIRTHS HOMERS - Lee and Shelley Dorssers are happy to announce the safe arrival of a new baby sister for Cole.
