T-A photo Heated debate on rates of summer skating school Council briefs A resolution from the Township of Rochester calling on the provincial government to pay grants for bridge replacement or reconstruction in the year the work is undertaken appeared headed for a split vote by Exeter council, Tuesday. Councillor Lossy Fuller moved that council concur with the resolution and Reeve Si Simmons seconded it. However, when Deputy- Reeve Don MacGregor and Councillor Ted Wright op­ posed the motion, Simmons also gave them his support and the matter was filed. Later in. the meeting, council learned that repairs to the Main St. bridge recommended by an engineering firm that un­ dertook the work after the government ordered a study of all bridges, would cost Times-Advocate, August 17, 1978 Page 25 DOMINION HOTELIt was also reported that the bridge deck may have to be waterproofed and if this is required the cost will be an additional $4,000. Works superintendent Glenn Kells said some of the work has already been un­ dertaken. It includes some refacing and repairing cracks in the deck and north wing-wall, but the major portion of the project won’t be undertaken until next year. The ministry of tran­ sportation and com­ munications pays 90 percent of the cost.

Appearing before the South Huron Recreation Board were Irv Armstrong, Don Bray and Ron Helm of the Grounds Committee who asked that the rec board give them some idea as to the role which the committee is to play. Helm said his group’s appearance before the board had been prompted by the lack of activity by the board on the committee’s report on the future development of the park which had been presented in April. Helm made specific reference to the recommen­ dation that a drainage system be installed on for the ball diamond. He felt that the committee had provided the board with enough information for the board to make a decision either one way or the other in the project. , Helm stated that fellow committee member Jim DeBlock was extremely disappointed in the lack of progress made in this par­ ticular area and of the lack of enthusiasm shown for another diampnd. Chairman of the board Bob Down told Helm that the paving of the rec centre’s parking lot had expended most of the funds which might have been spent on drainage work that could have been conducted this year. Down emphasised, that the securing of another ball diamond was a “priority” item with the board. When Helm suggested that the people concerned with ball in the community should be contacted directly by the board to determine what shape or form the diamond should take, Down asked the grounds com­ mittee members present if they would be willing to act as liaison between the town’s various athletic groups and the board with regard to the proposed changes to the park. After they had accepted the board’s request, Down asked if the committee could have a recommendation for a possible locale for the diamond for the board meeting on August 28. Committee members replied they should be able to accede to the request. In another matter, the Board of Management came in for a blast about their ice rental policies from a member of the Exeter Figure Skating Club. Mr. Gaylan Josephson of the club said it was “a real rip-off” that figure skating professional Brad Loosley who is operating a summer figure skating school was being charged $15 an hour for the rental'of ice time while the local club will be paying $20 an hour for ice rental during the winter. 1 Josephson said he had nothing personally against Loosley but the renting of the facility to an outsider for a price less than what local Auction Sale for the Estate of Augustus Morrissey Village of Mount Carmel, John Morrissey, executor House, double lot, sold subject to reserved bid, household effects containing appliances, furniture and antiques.

Later on Josephson said “Its pure bunk” to allow Loosley to have the facility for that rate. Following Josephson’s statements, he and George Godbolt engaged in a heated debate with Godbolt ex­ plaining the board’s reasons behind the rental of the facility to the figure skating pro for the $15 per hour rate. Godbolt said one of the purposes of the board is to ensure the maximum utilization of the facility and that the amount charged to Loosley was an off season amount as compared to a peak season amount which the figure skating club and minor hockey are being charged. Rec administrator Kirk Armstrong said if the figure skating had wanted ice time during the summer they could have it for the same figure as Loosely pays. Armstrong added that the $15 figure was firm only for the first week of the figure skating school’s operation and the amount could be renegotiated on an upwards scale depending on the popularity of the school. The board instructed Armstrong to talk to Loosley about an increased fee structure. Down said he agreed with Josephson’s basic premise that outsiders should not be charged less than local people and that this had been noted in the rate structure which the board had struck at its last meeting. Prime time ice rental rates for persons outside of Stephen, Usborne and Exeter is $30 per hour while the normal rental rate is $25.
