activities

way they stopped at Ferguson
Apiaries for a tour of the Honey House
and each one received a jar of honey
to take home.
On Tuesday Aug. 12 the kids had a
bike rodeo at the park with OPP Cor-
poral Dave Woodward attending from
Exeter.
As this week is "Safety Week" on
Wednesday everyone visited the
firehall in Zurich.
Friday was "Dress -up day" and
everyone dressed as their future
career. They also went to O'Connor's
Ambulance Service that day.
This was the last week for swimm-
ing lessons, with test day on
Thursday.
This being the last week of Zurich

to the Playhouse on Tuesday to'see
the Potato People. Thursday, August
21 will be a big day as the kids along
with some parents will go by bus to
Storybook Gardens in London.
I'm sure all the children had a great
time at playground this summer as it
kept them busy doing a variety of
things.
Thanks to the two leaders, Bobbi
Brown and Kelly Kirk, for a job well
done.

Arena manager resigns
Establish paving
Zurich council Thursday night
established a policy concerning
ratepayers wishing to install paving
stones on village property.
The policy establishes that any
ratepayer wishing to pave or install
paving stones on village property at
the end of their driveways must ob-
tain permission from the village road
superintendent.
The property owner is also repon-
sible for repairs and maintenance if
it is essential for village staff to do
any repairs under such paving or pav-
ing stones or damage by snow
removal.
Al Scott of the Ministry of Environ-
ment attended the meeting to answer
some questions regarding sewer pro-
blems in the village.
Scott said he thought a lot of runoff
rain water was getting into the sewer
system. He added, "Only floor drains
are allowed to drain. Just because we
have heavy rains, the system
shouldn't back up."
In answer to a question from coun-
cillor Herb Turkheim regarding
runoff from the lagoon, Scott said,
"That is done twice a year with about
9.9 million gallons discharged each
time.
Getting back to the village problem
of extra water getting into the system,
Scott said, "I think the village can
handle checking into where this water
is coming from. The sewer system is
not overloaded because of the number
of people hooked on, but from extra
water probably from roofs and gut-
ters. In February of 1985, the flows in-
creased by ten -fold."
Councillor Ray McKinnon comm-
mented that the system was design-
ed for 1,500 people and should have
lots of capacity Ieft.He then asked if
village employees could use dye tests
to determine where the water was
coming from.
Scott's answer was, "Yes and you
could also use smoke tests."
Council decided to take Scott's ad-
vice on clearing up the problem and
will be asking the county of Huron
plumbing inspector for assistance.
Scott also advised that 2,500 feet of
fencing around the 'sewer lagoon
needed replacing and suggested the
village undertake the job saying,
"You can do it cheaper."
Council instructed clerk Sharon
Baker to get copies of transient trader
and property standard bylaws from
other area communities before any
local action is taken.
On property standards, councillor
McKinnon said, "I would be concern-
ed with over zealous committee
members. Reeve Bob Fisher added,
"We need to have a property stan-
dards bylaw in order to qualify for
ONIP grants."
Similarily, the clerk was asked to
check in to the building bylaw to learn
if building permits are required for
re -roofing of existing structures.
Clerk Baker was given permission
to attend a municipal finance con-
ference in London from September 24
to 26.
Reeve Bob Fisher told council that
a recent meeting on the proposed
Zurich municipal drain cleanout was
handled properly. Engineer Don
Pletch will be instructed to go ahead
with a report. Fisher added, "The
cleanout won't happen this year. Con-
tracts could be let by next March."
A letter was read from Mervyn Erb
of the Zurich Mennonite Church lodg-
ing a complaint of activities of the re-
cent Zurich fall fair Sunday morning
while church services were
underway.'
The monthly report from animal
control officer Don Groot indicated
one animal had been apprehended
during the month of July.
Minutes of the hydro and water
system revealed discussion of a
special bulletin from the Municipal
Electric Association concerning
drastic changes in costs of liability
insurance.
Consideration is being taken in
some form of self insuring pool which
seems practical with promise of im-
proved coverage, greater flexibility
and lower premiums.
The latest minutes from the recrea-
tion, parks and community centre
board included acceptance with
regret of arena manager Gerry
Rader after 11 years in that position.
Advertisements for a successor are
being placed in the London Free
Press, Zurich Advance and Exeter
Times Advocate for a replacement
with duties to commence September
29.
The recreation board will be
holding interviews and recommen-
