Necessity of drain watered down
Monday’s rain was
welcomed by many area
residents, but none more
than the South Huron rec
centre board.
It gave them a first hand
look at the need for drainage
at the community park, and
most of them apparently lik
ed what they saw because it
indicated that an extensive
drainage project may not be
as necessary as originally
believed.
The debate over the
drainage started when
Mayor Bruce Shaw arrived
for Monday’s regular
meeting. He surprised
members by noting that he
had his car over a wide area
of the grassed portion of the
park and, despite the heavy
rainfall of the day, had en
countered no difficulty.
After his test results were
doubted by some fellow
board members, they all
Assistant Rental Housing
Family and Senior Citizens
Township of Tuckersmith
If you have one or more children or if you are 65 years of age or over or if your pre
sent accommodation is inadequate or if your income is modest, this is of interest to
you. The Minister of housing at the request of the Municipal Council is conducting a
survey to determine the need of assistant rental housing to be rented on a geared to
income basis in the Township of Tuckersmith. To determine local need for this type of
accommodation interested families and senior citizens now living in Tuckersmith are
asked to complete a questionnaire form. If you are a Tuckersmith Township resident
and are interested in renting a senior citizen or family unit in Seaforth, please com
plete a questionnaire form. For senior citizens and families interested in renting an
Ontario Housing Unit additional information and questionnaire forms are available
at the local clerk's office.

jumped into chairman Bob
Down’s truck and made the
same tour, returning in a
few minutes to indicate that
the need for drainage may
not be such a high priority
after all.
However there was little
discussion on the topic after
they arrived back at the
meeting.
Monday’s rainfall also
gave members a clear idea
of one of the major reasons
for some of the structural
problems at the grandstand.
It was also inspected prior
to the meeting after ad
ministrator Kirk Armstrong
suggested at the last
meeting that the facility was
hazardous.
The inspection showed
that some of the wood in the
grandstand has
deteriorated, but most of the
problems appear to be caus
ed by vandals.
Some small sections of the
seating area had been ripped
away, apparently by
youngsters, to give them
access to the area under the
grandstand. It was noted
that some youngsters ap
parently use the area below
the facility for storing beer
or engaging in other
questionable pursuits.
After returning to the rec
centre for their meeting,
Jerry MacLean noted that
the board would have to
decide if there was a use for
the grandstand, otherwise
there was little sense in
spending money on it.
' “We’re not at that point
yet,” Howard Pym replied,
in reference to a decision on
the overall redevelopment
of the park and how the
grandstand will fit into the
plans.
“Is it a hazard for kids?”
asked Shaw.
“ Yes, ” Armstrong
replied, adding that many of
the hazards have been
created by the youngsters.
“If it’s a hazard, we either
have to take it down or
repair it.” Shaw suesested.

The board then passed a
motion that “the bare
minimum” in the way of
repairs be undertaken
soon as possible.
What the cost will be
that project drew differing
opinions from board
members MacLean
suggested it would be
around $300. although other
members felt it could be
done for considerably less
than that.
Another item on Monday’s
agenda called for an inspec
tion “of the white house”,
prompting chairman Down
to whimsically note he
hadn’t expected the board to
be travelling that far.
The white house in ques
tion was not the one in
Washington, but rather the
small building which stands
to the south of the rec centre
and is used for a variety of
purposes, including the
headquarters for the fair
board’s secretary
day.
Armstrong said that the
windows had been smashed
in the building and
youngsters were getting into
it.
While members felt that
the fair board should under
take the necessary repairs,
Don Finkbeiner questioned
how necessary the building
was. He said the fair
secretary could possibly use
facilities at the rec centre or
a trailer could be hauled
onto the location for his use.
Shaw said the small cabin
could possibly be used for
storage of baseball equip
ment.
After more discussion, the
board asked Armstrong to
contact fair officials about
the building and Pym was
asked to also see officials to
have the broken windows
boarded up.
