"landfill site) it can becomea

Council will continue to
monitor the situation.
Towton also informed coup,
cil that there will be con-
siderable cost in erecting new
"no parking" signs in the
community. Ile explained
,that the cost of erecting signs
in the arena area is $243.
"That's only the beginning"
he said. "That's just no park-
ing signs for almost -three
blocks."

the work with the signs.
Councillor Irene Davis, of
the hook committee set up to
put out a historical hook about
Hensall for the centennial
year. requested that council
consider a possible loan to the
project to help cover costs.
Although figures were not
available, an estimated $270.()could cover the publishing of
1000 books. However, Mrs.
Davis explained that the book
is in the planning stages.
making iI impossible to give
an exact figure. She also ask-
ed council to consider funding
the project with profits to go
to the town.
Reeve Harry Klungel told'
council that the centennial
committee has declined to
pay for the book. Ile felt that
the decision was based on the
amount of work already in the
hands of the commiltr a on
other centennial events.
"i think it is important that
the town sponsor the book and
if any profit is made it goes
back to the village."
Council will consider both
proposals in conjunction with
the planned budget.
