HOTEL fining Loonge CLOSED MONDAYS' WRIT FILED CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 was for bricking the village pump house, located just south of the new nursing home , to conform with the appearance of the new' Pinecrest building. Earlier in-. formal discussions with George Newbold , owner of Pinecrest Manor, had been held with coun- cil in this regard. No action Was taken on the proposal. 0 Mrs. F. Skelding, president of the Lurgan Beach Association in, Huron Township, .has written let- ters to 'Rene Brunnelle, Minister of Cominunity and Social Services. and John White Minister of Treas- ury Economics and Intetgovern- ' mental Affairs to protest the planned construction of a recrea-= tion complex in the village of. Ripley. The association opposes the $450,-000 complex because the majcir.portion of the cost would be borne by ratepayers who have no need for such a facility. The letters state that of the '$28 mil- lion total assessment in the town- ship, the beach strip provides $18 million. As far as the association is con- cerned, there are enotigh .facilit- ies in the area to provide the ser- vices proposed in the complex. The letters state that there are prespntly three auditoriums in the village of Ripley, two of which are in schools. There are also swimming areas within a 15 mile radius of the village, ,examples being Lucknow and Lake Huron. The association feels that the residents wouldn't support a corn- plex of this kind without an oper- ationalsubsidy from the township and subsequently the major. rate- payers of the area. 0 THE RED CROSS IS PEOPLE LIKE YOU HELPING PEOPLE LIKE YQU A recent breakdown of the pump motor at, the' Lucknow village main well, south of the public school, and the related problems in making repairs, decided coun- cil to purchase a stand-by motor to use in such an emergency again. Council felt that for ade- • quate fire protection in the vil- lage, and proper domestic and commercial water service; the stand-by motor 'was the' only safeguard against a repeat of • their earlier problems and exces- sive costs in making a repair to the existing motor.' • Council discussed', at some length, problems that had arisen at the Lucknow and District Swim- Ming Pool. . It is necessary to replace the existing vinyl liner whin has gone to pieces since installed in the pool in June. Complicating the Problem is the fact that the Owen SoUnd COntracting Co. and its principal George Lyons, have gone bankrupt since the pool was installed. ' An: earlier proposal by Mr. Lyons to the local recreation chairman Bill. Hunter , that he ,Would absorb the balance of the cost of the ,liner above. $1000 , if ' the four area municipalities would each contribute $250 for the initial $1000, did not meet with favour from the Lucknow Couneil. The feeling was expres-' sed at Council meeting, and Reeve George Joynt stated that he had secured legal advice on the matter, that Mr. Lyons had no• authority to make any agreement on behalf of the bank- rupt company and council felt that any such personal arrange- ment was not acceptable.. It it the feeling of councillors who expressed themselves at the meeting that the pool was not ' completed in the Manner guaran- teed and that a, proper vinyl liher and necessary pool repairs to handle the liner properly , should be made at no cost to the area municipalities. A $4600 final payment on the• pool and equipment has been held back by the Lions Club. $29,000 has been paid.
