Reeve Ivan Hearn instructed the clerk, Mrs, M. Gibson to get information from other com- munities that had swimming pool bylaws. Councillors discussed making it mandatory to have building permits for above and below ground pools and to have the building inspector inspect the site when the pool is to be dug. They agreed that pools should be fenced before they are filled. Councillor Larry Hotson recommended a four foot fence with no more than one and a half inch mesh and a minimum size of 14 gauge. He also brought up the problem of people not observing the water restriction bylaw by leaving hoses running for days at a time. Council agreed that after of- fenders had been warned once, the fines should be enforced. It was decided that people wishing to fill pools should first receive the okay from the works superintendent so he could figure out the gallonage and charge for the water used. The major portion of the council meeting was spent in discussing tentative subdivision agreements for the McNicol, Hilldowntree and Wilberforce heights subdivisions.

The Orangeville resolution is being sent around to all Ontario municipalities, It was moved by Harry Wraith and seconded by Elizabeth Goddard that council donate $25.00 to the Middlesex 4-H Club.
