summer. I hope that the operators
of tourist facilities are preparing
themselves for a big tourist
season."
Cummings said he was plan-
ning to get interested tourist
operators from Huron together to
establish a County Tourist Pro-
motion Association. He said this
association should be to promote
tourism in the county from within
their organization and eventually,
this would relieve the county of
the responsibility for promoting
the tourist industry through its
development committee.
The Sport Complex at one time
proposed for Vanastra has not
had enough support to give
success to the venture, Cum-
mings also reported. He said the
former CFB Clinton had an arena,
a gymnasium, a curling rink and
messes reserved for a sports
complex but decision has now
been made to sell or rent each of
these buildings separately to
industry or to any other use.
The arena, for instance, is
being used year round now for
roller skating, Cummings said.
Where industry for the county
is concerned, Cummings' said the
absence of available rental space
has been one drawback in all his
dealings with industrialists.
"The county residents, whe-
ther public or private, can do
something about the lack of rental
space," Cummings said. "Each
area need a starter building for
industry, a structure that can be
divided into segments of 5,000
square feet. Most industries
require a, place to set up. They
will then expand into other
segments of the building or build
a building of their own."
"If they build, it is usually in
the town in which they first
located," said Cummings.
Cummings indicated one of the
best industrial types to hope for is
an industry which is related to the
agricultural basis in Huron. He
said • Huron should not have to
compete on the same basis with
cities and towns along highways
401 and 400, and felt that some
agricultural related industries
should have some incentive to
towns and villages." said
Cummings.
There is hope for this,
according to the county's deve-
lopment officer. He said enquiries
by industry have increased over
the last two months.
"At the present I am working
with 17 companies at various
stages of decision," said Cum-
mings. "I would say that about
half of these people are very
serious in their negotiations and I'
see no reason at the moment that
they will change their minds."
He said industrial commissions'
in the various towns throughout
Huron need help in establishing a
planned industrial area and in
having private developers build
suitable rental buildings.
"This is the only way industry
will be attracted' to our area," .
said Cummings.
The budget for the develop-
ment office is up this year to
$33,300. Increases as well as
other related costs are blamed for
the hike.
The weed inspection budget at
$15,400 . and the reforestation
budget at $5,900 remain similar
to last year's costs.
