Building of propossd plaza could begin in tail GRAND BEND - After four years of blueprints and meetings, a proposed plaza in Grand Bend is growing closer to the start of ground breaking. Monday night at Grand Bend council, Andy Spriet, representing Doug Jennison and Oakwood Plaza, said once.approved, work could be- gininthefall. • "Are you in the position to firm up a date on this?, questioned coun- cillor Phil Maguire. The original idea of the plaza first came to council back in 1989 when Bob Sharen was the reeve. "They (council then) said it was exceptable but it needed tome fine tuning," said Grand Bend Adminis- trator Paul Turnbull. A couple of issues in which Spriet was working on were the garbage container area and the pos- sibility of another lane on Oak St. The plaza will be on the corner of Oak and Ontario. "I can see the congestion and the possibility of a blind spot," said councillor Bill Uniac of the traffic problem on the corner. Maguire asked Spriet if there was a site plan agreement in place but apparently there is -not because there are several properties joined together. The plaza is scheduled to be btiilt' in two phases with the first one 8,000 square feet and the second, 5,400. "It might be one year, two, or five years," said Spriet of when the sec- ond phase would be built. �►F'cif7(I • R e - ope iiiii Ed nth eagi snde, co-owner -of flip, Leg and Thigh puts finishing touches on the :Grand Bend .store.

Skateboard park for Exeter? 320111TER,-• .CouneilloR.Ben Hoogenboom at Monday eve- ning's council meeting said he liked the Village of Hen- sall's plans for a skateboard park. Hoogenboom said it sounded like a good idea that Exeter could possibly copy to find a solution for problems with skateboarders in town. Hoogenboom asked if the recreation board might be in- terested in finding a good lo- cation in town for a facility similar to Hensall's proposal. Past problems with skate- boarders and the damage they have caused to public proper- ty led council to pass a bylaw prohibiting skateboarding on certain streets of town.
