Work on the Seaforth tower is currently being carried out and the work in Lucan is expected to start October 15 and be completed within 14 days, A recent inspection of the Lucan tower and tank by Horton Steel indicated it was in reasonably good condition and would continue in that manner if the necessary repairs were done in the near future. Clerk Ed Melsanson said he checked village records and found the tower was built in January of 1947 at a total cost of $13,650. He commented, "That's a good indication of what inflation has done over 32 years." At the same meeting council ratified a garbage collection agreement with C.H. Lewis Ltd. for the next year with an increase of 10. percent over last year's contract, The charge for weekly pickup of residential and domestic garbage will in- crease to $3.04 from $2.76 for each of the 13- four week periods during the year. The commercial rate will rise to $5,54 from $5.04. The agreement was negotiated with Cec Lewis for as long as he is able to retain a certificate from the Ontario Ministry of the Enviroment for his land fill site in Biddulph township. In making his presentation Lewis said, "I can no longer guarantee the land fill site. I hope the licence will be renewed, but, I can't guarantee it." He commented, "Last year we spent $5,800 on a study and installed pipes in the ground outside the property to monitor gas and water. Now the Ministry wants us to spend $15,000 for more holes and pipes," The four inch monitoring pipes are drilled 25 feet into the ground to check the amount of gas escaping and the quality of water. Lewis continued, "If we ever lose our licence, the garbage will have to be taken to Southwold where the charge for dumping is $6 per ton. The amount of garbage collected during the last 12 months in Lucan was about 1,100 tons. Council agreed to the 10 percent rise for the next 12 months and would review the situation if and when the local landfill site licence is lost. Lewis said his present landfill location should be good for the next 20 years, but, added, "With all the environmental requirements it's not a very happy looking situation." In other business, council: Agreed to switch the tax rollprocessing contract from IBM to Business Computer Services at a saving of $463,78 for the 1980, Declared the week of October 7.13 as Fire Prevention Week.

After quietly making our way to one of the dams, the boys saw how the beavers had constructed their dam and materials used, but no beavers, Later touring the barn, surprises of 1 week old piglets, baby kittens and a pony thrilled the boys. Mr. Donaghey helpfully an- swered all questions and "thank you" was extended to him by all the boys. Closing ceremonies were conducted on the farm.
