Planning for the day you retire or buy your first home means
having a master plan for your investment in the future. So
we have two plans to help. A Retirement Savings Plan, and a
Home Ownership Savings Plan. They both earn you valuable
tax savings, and when you subscribe to either one, or both plans
your contributions can be applied to any one, or a combination
of these investment vehicles:
].Royal Bank RSP and HOSP
Deposits. Interest-bearing deposits
with The Royal Bank of Canada,
offering a high interest return,
geared to the general deposit rate
structure. Because of the long-
term nature of these deposits, it
is possible to pay a higher rate of
interest than on conventional
savings deposits.
2. Income Fund. High-yield bonds,
deposit instruments and mortgages
insured under the National Housing
Act make up this portfolio which is
actively managed by professionals.
The policy is to achieve as high a
current income as is compatible
with maintaining reasonable price
stability as well as moderate capital
appreciation.
3. Equity Fund. Investment mainly
in Canadian common stock port-
folio which is actively managed by
the same professionals. Long-term
capital growth with reasonable
current income is the objective of
this fund.
It's all in how you plan your strategy.
Your Royal Bank manager can
help you work out a master plan.
Why not call or visit today. Now it's
your move.

. fora lot of reasons.
For some,life begins at 55.
Life at 55 doesn't have to be a job you no
longer enjoy, The life that begins at 55 can be
days of golfing. Trips abroad. A new car. All it
takes is some preparation.
Decide now when you want to retire. Then put
the money you don't need into a Registered
Retirement Savings Plan. The earlier you start,
the earlier you can retire.
If you're interested, write or give me a call. I'll
help you with the preparations.

Negotiate on garbage
The village of Grand Bend and
the township of Bosanquet are
negotiating an agreement
whereby Bosanquet may use the
village garbage dumping site.
The present agreement runs out
in March.
Bosanquet councillor- Charlie
Srokosz attended Grand Bend
council's regular meeting Mon-
day night to discuss the agree-
ment.
Councillor Bill Baird presented
Mr. Srokosz with a review of the
cost of maintaining the dump
with the request Bosanquet con-
sider paying just under half of
the total cost per year. This
would make Bosanquet's share
just under $10,000.
The village, according to coun-
cillor Baird, is also willing to
allow Bosanquet a deduction on
their share of the costs.by $2 per
yard for every yard of clay the
township delivers to the dump.
"Having Bosanquet truck in
some ,of the required clay could
save costs quite a bit" said
Baird. "The clay has to be truck-
ed in anyway and by letting
Bosanquet do some of it we save
two ways,"
Srokosz explained Bosanquet
realizes the supervision alone of
the dump is a lot of work.
"It means a lot to us if we can
just back our truck in and dump"
said Srokosz.
He added, "We want to play
ball and we know we supply at
least half of the garbage and it is
your site so I don't think your es-
timate is unreasonable."
Srokosz will take the report
back to his council for a decision.
Bosanquet is presently prepar-
ing their own site for garbage
dumping so when the Grand
Bend dump is filled the situation
could be reversed as Grand Bend
might then use the Bosanquet
site.

Dearing and Della Sims,
Grand Bend council has given
permission to Grand Cove
Estates to construct a pipeline
from their sewage, lagoons to the
Ausable river provided Grand
Cove stands good for any
damages to the roads.
Doug Barker, representing
Grand Cove Estates, made the
request at the regular council
meeting Monday night and
assured council the Ministry of
the Environment must approve
the runoff from the lagoon
system is properly treated
before it will be sent through the
pipeline
This pipeline will allow Grand
Cove Estates to go ahead with
their proposed expansion this
spring, adding additional home
dwelling units to the existing
development. Without the
pipeline, the expansion could be
delayed as the present lagoon
system is not big enough to han-
dle more units. Eventually
Grand Cove could house as many
as 700 units.
Council approved a request
from the developer of the
Lakeview Casino property that
the zoning be changed to R-3,
multi-family dwellings, from its
present C, commercial, provided
the developer conform to all R-3
rules and council has site plan
approval. This would mean coun-
cil must approve the basic style
of whatever is constructed.
In response to a request from
Council that the Ministry of
Natural Resources review its ap-
proval of a submission by Don
Southcott concerning the con-
struction of docks along the
Ausable River, the Ministry in-
formed council once again that
they have no direct control over
private property. The Ministry
suggested council contact the
Ausable Bayfield Authority if
they wish a review of the poten-
tial changes in the river flow.
Council has already contacted
the Authority concerning the
matter and were informed it
would be discussed at the
Authority's meeting February 2.
Solicitors Donnelly, and
Murphy of Goderich informed
The Grand Bend recreation
committee requested council's
approval for a planned skating
rink on the frozen Ausable river
at council's regular meeting
Monday night.
Councillor Bill Uniac, who is a
member of the recreation
committee, explained to council
the committee is hoping to get
either the fire department or the
PUC to do the flooding in the area .
and hopefully the town could keep
the'surface- clear of 's noW"
someone else to do it.,
The main problem, according
to Councillor Harold Green, also
a member of the contmittee,
would be the initial clearing of
the snow and also the problem of
getting heavy equipment onto the
ice surface to clear it. The ice at
the edges of the river is not as
solid as the ice in the centre.
Council recommended the
recreation committee go ahead
with their plans for the skating
rink and also suggested the
committee try and get some help
with the project from some of the
local organizations.
In other business pertaining to
recreation, council appointed
Harold Hartle to the committee
for a three year term following a
recommendation from the
committee,
Deputy Reeve Bob Simpson
requested the recreation com-
mittee have their budget in to
council by mid-March at the
latest.
A joint meeting was set up
between the recreation corn-
NO SEWERS
Sewers are not coming to
Grand Bend this fall according to
Reeve Bob Sharen. Reeve Sharen
informed council at their regular
meeting Monday evening he has
received verbal confirmation
from the ministry of the en-
vironment concerning the sewer
delay.
Reeve Sharen says there are 12
projects approved beyond the
final engineering study which
will not go to tender this year,
Grand Bend has just had its final
engineering study completed so
the delay in the sewers could be
for some time.
Council requested the village
clerk get written confirmation
from the ministry concerning the
delay and also request the
ministry explain the manner in
which the sewer projects
priorities are established.
As well, council wishes a
definite date be given by the
ministry for the Grand Bend
sewer project.
council they have completed a
survey of the title concerning the
ownership of the beach property
and are convinced the area west
of government road is provin-
cial.
Donnelly and Murphy have
acknowledged their appointment
as the village solicitors.
Council passed a by-law to
borrow $100,000 until taxes are
collected,
Another by-law to borrow $25,-
000 for Shorelines Assistance
was passed by council. The
money will be used to assist
those wishing to do erosion con-
trol work along the Ausable
River according to plans
prepared by the Ausable
Bayfield Authority.
Accounts in the sum of $10,-
142,19 were approved for pay-
ment,
mittee and the council to discuss
in depth what the responsibilities
of the recreation committee are.
This meeting will take place in
the council chambers February 3
at 7.30 p.m.
Don Southcott denied accusing
Grand Bend Reeve Bob Sharen of
any conflict of interest concer-
ning the zoning' by-law of the
village at the regular meeting of
council Monday night.
What Southcott did say, was
that he accused Reeve Sharen of
having a "potential" cpnflict of
interest in the matter since Mr.
Sharen is president and minor
shareholder of Ausable Holdings
Ltd. of Grand Bend.
Southcott explained his objec-
tion to having Reeve Sharen take
part in the zoning by-law dis-
cussions by saying "the point is,
I as a developer do not know
whether Mr. Sharen or his com-
pany is considering buying the
neighbouring land and thereby
benefiting from a zoning
decision."
However, the village solicitor,
Dan Murphy of Donnelly and
Murphy, Goderich responded by
saying under that criteria, any
councillor may be said to have a
potential conflict of interest, not
just Reeve Sharen.
Murphy went on to say he felt
there was no conflict of interest
involving Reeve Sharen par-
ticipating as a member of coun-
cil in discussions with ratepayers
concerning the village's new zon-

Van Praet, Grand Bend.
ing by-law, Murphy said he felt
Sharen's interest would be the
same as that of any other
ratepayer or land owner in the
village.
Murphy assured Southcott
had reached this conclusion after
studying all correspondence
pertaining to the matter and by
studying the Municipal Conflict
of Interest Act. The villages
former solicitors have reached
the same conclusion and stated
so in.a letter to the village.
Southcott had first raised the
conflict of interest issue at a
ratepayers meeting last October
18 to discuss any objections to
Grand Bend's new comprehen-
sive zoning by-law.
