Above, Lester Heywood pulls three youngsters. T -A photo Shaw changes structure —continued from front page months many matters will be referred to this committee "and with this possibility in mind, I have also appointed Tom to the planning board so that some co- ordination will exist directly with the future planning of the town and the specific intentions we have with regard to •sub- divisions". A committee of one — Barb Bell — was named as a bylaws committee. ' r A& elk elsr f- ,,sda` REDI-MIX CONCRETE ea All Types of Concrete Work McCann Const. Ltd. DASHWOOD Plvne23,-3381 or 237-3422 (free estimates) The Mayor explained that this committee was created because many times, most members of council have had to call on the clerk to find various bylaws for purpose of clarification or even verification. He said he was asking Mrs. Bell to consider the bylaws, to update them, if necessary and, where appropriate to compile manuals of the bylaws pertaining to specific areas. "Considerable expertise is immediately available, I am certain, but it would seem like an excellent project for the South Huron District High School law classes," he concluded. Named to the executive and finance committee were Reeve Boyle, Deputy -Reeve MacMillan and Mayor Shaw. The public works committee had originally been set up under the co -chairmanship of Coun- cillors Wright and Simpson, but this was later changed to have Wright chairman of roads and Simpson chairman of drains. Wright had suggested that the task was too big for one man and felt that most people would deal only with one chairman and not pass the duties along to both. Other members of the two committees are Councillors Fuller and Hicks' and Deputy - Reeve MacMillan. They are expected to be the busiest of all committees this year if the completion of the sewer project is approved. The police cownittee will be chaired by Patterson with Reeve Boyle being the other member, while newcomer Garnet Hicks will be chairman of the sanitation and pollution control'committee. Other members of the latter are Bell and Simpson. Shaw suggested this committee will, no doubt, have to consider alternative methods of waste disposal this year and, if the need arises, separation of refuse. "One of the problems I'd like to see handled before too long is the ._disposal of leaves," Shaw noted in his remarks. He questioned if the existing bylaw, which prohibits the burning of leaves, is adequate. Reeve Boyle will head the property committee with Bell and Hicks... Shaw took the liberty of sitting himself as council's represen- tative to the Industrial Com- mission "to demonstrate the importance council places on growth of industry in Exeter and continuation of the good relations between the industrial com- munity and the town". Named to the fire board were Boyle, Shaw and MacMillan; while MacMillan and Shaw will also sit on the planning board. Representatives on the cemetery board will be Wright and.Simp- son, while Boyle and Fuller will represent council on RAP. We Are Clearing Out Start The New Year 7 Out Right ...

Thompson continued, "When it was passed I thought it was more flexible than it is." He told of,a former building lot on the road east of Brucefield surrounded by trees which was turned down for severance by the Huron County committee because it didn't meet township bylaw requirements. "People should not have to be crowded into a small village. . Some like a little more provacy," added the reeve. A small piece of property in Egmondville has been donated to the township and plans will be formulated shortly to ready it for use as a park for children. . In discussing road department work, Thompson said he hoped at least one new bridge be built and a mile and a quarter of road built up in 1975.
