The annual meeting of
Bayfield Ratepayers Assoc.,
held Aug. 17 in the Old Town
Hall, was well attended and
showed keen interest in Village
matters by the ratepayers,
Chairman Mr, Frank. Burch
welcomed all present, and due
to the unavoidable absence of
the secretary, Mrs. Jan Simons,
Mrs. Anne Tillmann was
nominated to record the
minutes of ' the meeting.
Following the reading of the
minutes of last year's meeting
and the adoption of the
treasurer report, Mr. Burch
addressed the meeting, com-
mending the Village council for
their efforts and called on
Reeve Ed Oddleifson to give a
summary of the past year. Mr.
Burch said that few com-
munities were afforded the op-
portunity of hearing their coun-
cil's full accounting of their
stewardship.,
The reeve reported on the tax
mill increase, the financial
position, in that the Village has
no debt--all expenses are
carried by annual income. The
assessment revenue has in-
creased, and council felt the
Village growth is orderly and
reasonable. He reported on the
paving done in the past year,
which has resulted in less
gravel and calcium chloride ex-
pense.
He made mention of the Of-
ficial Plan which is in the
hands of the ministry; the
policing by the Goderich O.P.P.
and noted that Col Elmer Bell,
chairman of the Ont. Police
Commission, had visited the
Village collecting information
regarding policing
requirements; reported that the
garbage collection appeared to
be working well in its first year
of operation; reported that the
property for the Senior Citizens
Housing Unit is now owned by
Ont. Housing Corp.; that the
Provincial Architect had
visited the property and recom-
mended the tie-in for water and
septic tank facilities to the
Municipal Building; and that
the water had been tested and
did not require chlorination. A
by-la* re-swimming pool fen-
cing is being considered by
Council for the protection of
owners and the general public.
Several other topics were
outlined re- official survey of
the Village; recreational
facilities; Harbour and River
Flats; street lighting and
erosion. This summary was
followed by a question and an-
swer period.
Mrs. 0. Chapman, chairman
of the nominating committee,
presented the following slate of
officers and directors for the
coming year, which were ap-
proved: past pres,, Brig. G.L.M.
Smith; Pres., Mr. Frank Burch;

Mrs. Jean Lindsay; sect'y, Mrs.
Jan Simons; directors, Mrs. 0.

Concern that the smallest
lots allowed in Huron County
are too big has led to proposed
changes in the county official
plan to reduce their sizes.
At a public hearing on the
changes August 5, in Goderich,
county planning director Gary
Davidson told a small audience
of 13 persons, mostly county
councillors, that new lot sizes
would be based on health
regulations about septic tanks
and wells.
The smallest lots the county
plan now allows are one acre
when a well and septic tank are
on the property and one half
acre when a septic tank is on
the property and its water sup-
ply comes from somewhere else.
The change in the plan
would have different sets of
rules for rural, cottage, hamlet
and village lots.
The rules would be used by
municipalities with no zoning
bylaws when issuing building
permits and land severences.
Applications for these would
have to include site plans so of-,
ficials could be sure' health
regulations would be met.
