Bruce
teachers
work to rule
CHESLEY - A 29 -day work
to rule campaign by Bruce
County's 280 secondary teachers
will continue after talks failed
and a new agreement wasn't
reached.
The main issue under dispute
is how .to pay for the $2,200 a
year experience increase for 95
teachers not yet a maximum sal-
ary, it was reported in the Wing -
ham Advance -Times.
Trustee negotiating chairman
David Inglis said under the So-
cial Contract those increases
can't be paid unless there are
other payroll 'savings to offset
the cost. He said, last Saturday,
the board proposed staff changes
or reduced use of supply teach-
ers as of -setting measures.
Equal
school
support
endorsed
AILSA CRAIG - A major
shakeup in the way property tax-
es are calculated was endorsed
recently by Ailsa Craig Village
Council.
Council voted two weeks ago
to support a county -wide reas-
sessment which would mean
that every owner of equal value
property in each of the county's
21 municipalities would pay the
same tax for education and
county purposes, it was reported
in the Parkhill Gazette.
Goderich
may ban
smoking
GODERICH - Smoking in re-
tail stores and•estaurants may
soon be restricted, if Goderich
Town Council decides to pass a
municipal non-smoking bylaw.
Huron county Chief Medical
Officer of Health Dr. Maarten
Bokhout urged council to con-
sider a ban on smoking in public
areas recently.
He said retailers are afraid
they will lose customers if they
restrict smoking, it was reported
in the Goderich Signal -Star.
"Unfortunately, not enough
businesses arc voluntarily pro-
hibiting smoking, despite the
fact the fact that it would reduce
their maintenance and cleaning
costs as well as increase employ-
ee productivity and health."
And, he said, restaurants with
non-smoking designated areas
don't go far enough in their at-
tempts to curb smoking.
"Simply designating smoking
and non-smoking rooms in a
building without properly venti-
lating them is Tike designating
chlorinated end non -chlorinated
ends in a swimming pool," he
said.

Dog not injured as tree falls
High winds brought down a large maple tree in the back yard of Darlene and Bi!! Van Ber-
gen in Centralia on Friday morning. The tree was uprooted and crashed down onto two
metal storage sheds containing snowmobiles, bikes and other items. The damage would
not be know until all the branches were cleared away. The Van Bergen's dog Jenna, seen
here with Darlene, was tied up near the tree and the branches fell around her but she
was not injured.
Portable class
is put on hold
Council against housing portable
classroom behind police station
EXETER - The idea of a portable classroom for alternative learning
was met with concerns by many on Exeter council who questioned the ne-
cessity of the class and the ability of the town to house it behind the for-
mer police station.
"It's for high school for students who are not benefitting from tradi-
tional education," mayor Bruce Shaw said of the program that would be
used by some six secondary, school students in the area.
The executive committee was recommending the Huron County
Board of Education be allowed to use the parking lot behind the police
station for the alternate education site.
Councillors were told that of all the sites looked at, this was the best
one because of its proximity to South Huron District High School.
But reeve Bill Mickle said this wouldn't be possible if council decides to
begin renovations on the police station. As well councillor Lossy Fuller
questioned the need for it the portable class.
"It doesn't make sense for five or six students," said Fuller. "I think this
is all wrong." Fuller said.
Councillor Ben Hoogenboom suggested a storefront in downtown Exeter
might be more appropriate.
But Shaw said the trailer has already been bought by the ministry and is
free to the board.
As well, Shaw said the ministry of education doesn't want the portable
class on school property. "The province has found it [the project] doesn't
work when it's on school property," he said.
"There's got to be a better location," ,Fuller said.
Council voted to deny the item.
