Alwyn Dayman, dockmaster, reported that there were 22 boats docked in the village this weekend, and all of them were carrying family-passengers. * * * Councillor Ian Coles pointed out several places in Southcott Pipes Parkway Ltd. where im- provements to the roads would make for safer driving.

Albert Carruthers, Thedforci will be told to move his fishing boat off the launching ramp at the river's edge by this Friday, or the village will move it, and charge the costs to him. This boat has been pulled up on the ramp for several weeks for re- pair, but the repairs are going forward slowly, and the boat interferes with other boatmen who wish to use the ramp. John Lauman, who has built a "flower-bed" between two railroad ties, on the village road allowance by about 21. inches, along George Street, will be advised to move it off. Councillor Emerson Des- Jardine inquired about the park- ing lot, permission for the es- tablishment of which had been received by the village from the Bank of Montreal. This parking lot would be on the east side of Highway 21, just across from the Colonial Hotel, on a site to be built upon soon by the Bank. Councillor Orval Wassmann, who is chairman of the property committee, asked if Mr. Des- Jardine had not completed the work. "I'm not on the property committee," said DesJardine. Councillor Wassm an n then delegated Councillor Coles, the other member of the property committee, to see that the work got done in preparing the lot for use as parking area. * * * Council decided to insta11178 feet of three foot wide sidewalk in front of the new post office, along the Old Highway 81. 411•111111111111111•11111111i GRAND BEND The Grand Bend and Area Chamber of Commerce is going ahead with its plan to organize a house-numbering plan for the village. Letters to home-own- ers, business people and renters, went out in the mail this week, pointing out the need for some financial support of this venture. The Chamber appreciates the .support of the resident s of Grand Bend and area, and also of the out-of-town firms who make deliveries and personal calls within the village. Both the Grand Bend Holiday, and the paper being printed by Steve Smith (now called the Lake Huron Shoreline* have offered to print names of donors, as a community service. The Chamber plans to raise at least $700 before ordering the job of numbering done. Then the Municipal Service Company at Oakville will be asked to pre- pare the masterplans, and as- sist in the actual putting up of the numbers. Chairman of the committee in charge of house numbering is William Sturdevant, a former reeve of the village of Grand Bend.
