There may be some "financial
repercussions" from the
resignation of Dr. G.P.A. Evans,
Huron County Medical Officer
of Health, warned Everett
Mcllwain, chairman of the
Health committee when he
reported to Huron County
Council last Friday.
"Nobody knows what we will
have to pay to get a new man,"
said Mcllwain. "Our experience,
you know, has been that we
usually pay more to get a
replacement."
Dr. Evans is leaving the
Huron post at the end of
February to take up his new
position as I4i',11-1 with the cities
of Kitchener and Waterloo and
the County of Waterloo.
The Huron MOH was paid a
salary of $23,000 last year and
will receive a $1,000 per annum
hike in salary as the result of the
new salary schedule approved
Friday by county council.
Anson McKinley,
deputy-reeve of Stanley
Township, wondered if the
health committee intended to
negotiate on the basis of the
$24,000 per annum salary for
the MOH. Mcllwain told him
they would have to leave this
particular part of the budget
op:,' until applications begin to
cAln. '1 and the committee gets
SO PA:' idea of the salary expected
by the prospective employees.
"1 - may run higher than
$24,000," Mcllwain said. "'Then
you have to decide, are we going
to have a MOH or aren't we?"
Other salaries for 1971 for
non-union personnel in the
Health Unit were agreed upon: a
six percent increase each for
Miss Sandra Malabar, supervisor
of nursing to $9,800 per annum
and for William Empey, Chief
Sanitary Inspector to $9,100.
"Union negotiations for
Health Unit personnel are now
underway for contract year
1971," said Mcliwain. "Council
will be advised in due course of
the results of the negotiations."

The first draft of the official
plan for Huron County was not
presented at the December
session of Council because J. A.
Nicklom of O. V. Kleinfeldt and
Associates Limited, County
Consultants, was unable to
complete the document in time.
However, the plan is expected
to be presented early in the new
year — hopefully January — and
council adopted a schedule to
make certain that all
municipalities are fully informed
about its contents.
The initial meeting of the
planning board is set for
Tuesday, January 26 at which
time the proposed official plan
will be presented to them. At
the next meeting of the Planning
board, Tuesday, February 11,
the proposed official plan will be
discussed fully by board
members.
The document would then be
presented by the planning board
to county council during the
February session as a matter of
information. The proposed
official plan will be sent to each
local council following the
February session.
The local councils would then
be requested to have any written
comments concerning the
proposed official plan in to the
secretary by March 19. Council
agreed that each municipal
council would have the right to
request that a member of the
J .•
planning board attend their
meeting and answer questions
about the proposed official plan.
The planning board will meet
March 24 to discuss comments
from the local municipalities.
The planning board will arrange
public meetings to discuss the
proposed official plan early in
April and would meet again in
the latter part of April to review
all comments regarding it.
The planning board would
then redraft the proposed
official plan for presentation to
county council.
The chairman of the planning
board, Anson McKinley, told
council councillors that to date,
eight applications have been
received for the position of
planning director for Huron
County. He said applicants are
from as far away as Victoria BC,
Halifax NS and the USA.
Hugh Flynn, a definite
candidate for the wardenship in
1971, expressed his desire that
the new planning director to be
engaged eventually be county
council, would be a native of
Huron County or at least,
someone familiar with rural
municipalities.
The chairman pointed out
that these men are used to
"being re-educated" to
geographical locations but
concurred with Flynn that a
man with a knowledge of things
rural would be a definite asset in
Huron.
McKinley predicted that the
Huron County planning staff
would likely grow in the future
to a staff of three people. He
estimated that initially, the
planning director would be paid
approximately $10,000 ' per
annum.
"The people in Toronto are
watching this with a great deal
of interest," said McKinley.
"This is a pretty important
document. In fact, I think the
official plan is one of the most
important documents in the
coming year. It will set out what
we think should take place by
way of development in the
county. There was no growth for
the last 50 years but this could
change."
In other business, county
council granted pay adjustments
for John Berry, clerk-treasurer
$500 to a salary of $15,500; to
Bill Hanly, deputy
clerk-treasurer, $500 to
$11,000; and construction
safety inspector, Everett Smith,
$342 to $6,042.
Council also heard that $100
scholarships had been granted to
the following university
students: Miss Janet Roorda,
Clinton, and John Trewartha,
RR 3 Clinton, both at the
University of Waterloo; Miss
Mary Baechler, RR 2 Zurich,
Francis Foran, RR 2 Auburn
and James Wheeler, RR 1 Ethel,
all at the University of Guelph;
and Raymond Hogan, RR 7
Lucknow at Ridgetown College
of Agricultural Technology.

sigeed by parents be handled
by the director of education per-
sonally with no one else involved
and
'
therefore, no one else know-
ing who made the complaint and
the nature of it; stressed the
need for board members.to think
in terms of a, county board of
education and to get over their
little red schoolitis; warned
members not to have so many
policies that they become "rub-
ber stamps"; asked members to
treat each new policy as "an
area of deep concern until it
is passed"; suggested that trans-
portation routes be studied thor-
oughly in an endeavor to cut
down duplication of runs and to
increase efficiency.
In closing, the retiring chair-
man told the board members that
judging by election results, the
board must have "satisfied the
electorate". He stated that not
one member had been defeated
during an election and members
who were not returning had
reached a decision to decline
nomination.
It was Vice-chairman Rob-
ert Elliott who moved a vote of
thanks to the three men, who,
Elliott remarked, represented
over 40 years of experience.
"You leave hard shoes to
fill," Elliott told them.
Elliott also stated that true
to form, Chairman John Lavis
had left the board at least six
months of work and consequently
only a year and a half to make
their own plays.

Members of the Huron
County Board of Education
learned Wednesday evening in
Clinton at the final meeting of
the year that tenders for the
purchase of 12 school buses
were received from four school
bus suppliers for three buses to
go to Turnberry and nine to
Howick.
The lowest tender was made
by Wayne Bus Sales of Ontario
for $106,525 less $6,000
trade-in, making a difference of
$100,525 and was accepted by
the board.
Delivery is to be made prior
to December 31 and will include
nine Ford and three GM chassis
all with Wayne bodies.
Other tender prices ranged
from the low Wayne bid to
$106,234.
The report and
recommendations on the
cafeteria study was presented to
the board and approved. The
report showed that a meeting
had been held with all the
cafeteria operators in the county
high schools and discussion had
centred around reducing or even
eliminating Board financial
assistance.
Cafeteria operators agreed
that a "tuck shop" at any
cafeteria increased the financial
return. As well, an "express
line" was shown to have merit.
Cost of meals and staff wages
were the biggest problems, the,
a
cafeteria operators said.
Only two of the operators
felt they would be willing to
operate their school cafeterias •
without subsidization from the
board. The other operators
noted that the only way it could
be done successfully was to raise
cents.
Following
of meals to at least 55
Following the meeting, the '4
committee set forth the
following suggested
recommendations:
Raise the cost of a hot plate
to 40 cents at GDCI; have bulk
milk and use milk dispensers at
GDCI; incorporate an express •
line at GDCI; cafeteria and not
the GDCI Student Council to
dispense ice cream; cafeterias to
be self-supporting at CHSS and
SHDHS; cease operation of
Moffat Catering Ltd. at Central
Huron Secondary School as soon
as possible and engage a local
supervisor to run operation
_without Board subsidy.
These suggestions will be put
into effect January 1, 1971 and
will run until the end of the
school term at which time the
financial statement of each
cafeteria's operation will be
reviewed.
It was also agreed that a
request by the principal of F. E.
Madill Secondary School for a
new dishwasher in the cafeteria
there be deferred until the new
board meets' in the new year.
