He said he “felt compelled to request an entrance way to be granted directly north of the Ontario Hydro building which could also be used for the Hydro entrance off Highway 4.” He said the main entrance (off the perimeter road around Vanastra) is “a bottleneck for transports using the Industrial Park, along with this it is truly unsightly with an auto wrecker at the en­ trance." Mr. Archer’s letter was in answer to a recent notification sent him by council that the ministry of transportation and com­ munications had refused a request from council this past summer for this same additional entranceway because it was considered a dangerous entrance on the slope of a hili. At that time the ministry said an en­ tranceway farther north might be possible but all costs for this would have to be paid for by the residents of Tuckersmith township. Council members decided then that they were satisfied that the five entranceways off the perimeter road were a sufficient number for Vanastra in view of the refusal by the ministry to pay for the sixth. “It’s not warranted for us to put that kind of money into it,” stated councillor Frank Falconer and all members of council agreed with him. They felt it was a fairly simple thing for a truck to get into Vanastra and locate the Archer plant compared to locating an address in a city where often a driver had to manipulate a big tran­ sport through narrow alleyways. Council members agreed that if Archer wanted to go ahead and try to convince the ministry to put in the additional entrance they would not stand in his way. The ministry of tran­ sportation and com­ munications has approved the following snowplowing arrangements for this coming winter as follows: engaging McGregor Farms to use one truck with snowplow at $25 per hour and to pay standby time at $15 per hour when not plowing; to rent a 1976 Champion grader, 190 horse power, from December 11 to April7; and to use the township’s own two graders, Eldon O’Brien atRR#5, Clinton will use his snowblower to clear the snow from around the Vanastra Recreation Centre and the township office. Road superintendent Allan Nicholson in his report to council said that over 55 signs on township roads had been recently stolen or damaged by vandals. Requests for building permits were approved for: Edith Baker, part lot 27, concession 1, Huron Road survey, a barn; McGregor Farms, lot 5, concession 11, HRS, addition to repair shop; and Robert Core, Egmondville, lot 1, 2 and 3, a tool shed. Dogs continue to be a problem in the township, especially in the Brucefield area where complaints are numerous. Minor damage result in two car crash Only three accidents were investigated by the Exeter OPP this week, with damage being comparatively light in each. On Tuesday, vehicles driven by Carl Whitford, Ashley, Michigan, and Daniel Dalton, RR 2 Grand Bend, collided on Highway 84, west of Hensall. Damage was estimated at $100 by Constable Bill Os l er loo. The other two collisions were reported on Friday evening, the first when an unknown vehicle struck a mailbox and post owned by Keith Hern, RR 3 Exeter. Damage was listed at $50 by. Constable Al Quinn. LarryConstable Christiaen investigated the other, which resulted in $1250 damage to a vehicle driven by Donald Poirier, Exeter, which struck a hydro poie on concession 12-13 of Hay. During the week, the local detachment officers laid six chargee under the Highway Traffic Act, five under the Liquor Licence Act and five under the Criminal Code, On Saturday evening, a truck owned by Dennis Carty, Huron Park, was stolen from his laneway. It was recovered afternoon in Township. Constable Frank investigating. Monday Stephen Giffin is r ■> receives belated grant the town of Seaforth can’t put in hydrants to fight fires Council authorized clerk Jack McLachlan tohavethd tax bills for the township done by the London Com­ puter Business firm at a cdst of §322 per year. The Vanastra Day Care Centre was given a good report by the consultant and inspector out of London but instructions were issued that fire drill must be carried out at least once a month. Letters are to be written to the Seaforth and Goderich detachemtns of Ontario Provincial Police asking them for a patrol of the Hensail road on Saturday mornings to help cut down on littering from the truck carrying ‘ garbage from Hensall to the dump in Usborne township. Council was pleased to receive a letter from Jack Riddell, MPP for Huron- Middlesex reporting that a request from the clerk for a capital assistance Wintario grant for $23,158.87 had been approved. Clerk McLachlan had noticed that no grant from Wintario had been sought for the enclosing of the swimming pool at Vanastra when it was con­ structed over two years ago, and he had applied for it recently. This will help cut down on the large debt owed by the citizens of Vanastra since the construction of the swimming pool and the recreation centre. The clerk did not reveal the amount of the debt still owing. Council took no action on a request from the Seaforth Fire Area Board to pay rent on the fire hydrants in Seaforth. Council agreed it was willing to pay for four, used to fill water tanks in case of fire in the township. “We don’t mind paying for four but not for the whole number," declared Coun­ cillor Robert Fotheringham, who is also a township representative on the Fire Area Board. “Pretty small peanuts if in the town," stated Coun­ cillor Frank Falconer.
