Everyone Wekorrle Hay's next session to decide ball diamond's fate Although some arrived late and others left early, no more than a maximum of 40 people attended the ratepayers' meeting called by Hay Township council to discuss matters of imminent concern to the municipality. After Reeve Lionel Wilder had been unanimously elected chair- man, the first topic on the agenda was a new water supply for residents along way 21. calor John Elder gave a brief outline of events since efforts to obtain grants for a communal water system along the Lake Huron shoreline were first begun in 1980. Referring to newspaper articles detailing provincial and federal funding for similar projects in other areas, Elder concluded "we are on the wrong side of the fence with both parliaments." Wilder read out a letter prepared by the Burns Ross engineering company to be sent to provincial environ- ment minister Andy Brandt, refuting the arguments on which the ministry has based its refusal to provide financial assistance. Though • the ministry deems the water safe, samples show hardness, iron, colour, turbidity and sulphate content all far ex- ceed the ministry's own max- imum desirable levels. Ministry claims that poten- tial benefitters are seasonal residents puts the township in a Catch-22 situation - many homeowners would consider year-round residency if they had a decent water supply. The letter also points out the ministry's own criteria dictate financial assistance for waterworks where copts per household exceed $1,200, but seem to have made an ex- ception in Hay's case where latest figures supplied by Burns Ross give an estimate of $2,200 per household. As for government concerns about uncontrolled expansion in the area if a pipeline is installed, Wilder said any further development must conform to Hay's secondary plan. Joe Grigg, a resident of Lakewood Gardens, informed the meeting a government of- ficial had recently conducted a survey in his subdivision and found that 21 of the 23 residents would live there permanently if they had good water. Several in attendance stressed the urgency of a quick resolution of the pro- blem. John Vander Burg on Lakeroad East, said as the father of a young baby he had to decide soon whether or not to dig a well. He didn't want to spend thousands now, and then thousands more in two or three years if the pipeline became a reality. Wayne Miller, who lives a tantalizing 80 rods from the waterworks, has had to draw potable water for the past 25 years. The possibility of Stanley olden The weather man is predic- ting that March will come in like a lion. Only time will tell. We received a nice fresh bou- quet of pussy -willows, one of the first indications of spring. Films were shown on Mon- day evening followed by refreshments. We thank Mr. and Mrs. Elgin MacNab of Grand Bend for their donation of beautiful large print Bibles. We also wish to thank all the people who donate materials for the hobby shop projects. On Wednesday evening, video programs were shown. Mrs. Verna Truemner is presently a patient in South township joining Hay's peti- tion and adding further weight to the argument was raised. In answer to other ques- tions, clerk Joan Ducharme said the pipeline could not be built with only the assent of those interested right now, as costs would have to be pro rated, and the township could not carry the funding, as the study was predicated on the impJei Huron Hospital, Exeter, and we wish her a speedy recovery. On Friday afternoon some of our residents enjoyed a bus trip along the lake and around Grand Bend to see the water and the ice. Our new bus with the lift makes it possible for wheel chair residents to enjoy these outings. Bingo was played on Friday evening followed by refreshments. Mr. Bill Melick and his musical group from Goderich provided a musical program on Saturday evening. The Sunday evening chapel service was conducted by Rev. Stuart Miner of Exeter.

Dave Durand summed up the general feeling when he told council "the letter was good - now stay on the govern- ment's doorstep and follow up" Wilder assured him "we won't take no for an answer". In a discussion about authorising the township to negotiate a $30,000 line of credit to build a ball diamond in the township, Jim Love voiced the major objection of those who doubted the wisdom of building on leased land. Grants for one-third the cost are not available without township backing, and Wilder said the township would have to add four mills to the tax rate to raise the $30,000. Dave Durand, Bernie Denomme, Gerald Shantz, and Paul Kropp were among those arguing fervently for the facilities. Hay spends over $16,000 for recreation in other municipalities. Present diamonds are so overbooked rained -out games are never made up. More than half the young people playing in Zurich and Dashwood last summer were from Hay. The Old-timers slow -pitch teams 4.11 stiotose can't obtain time on the diamonds. "We are depriving our own kids. It's high time to get off our seats and do something for ourselves", Denomme said emphatically. Wilder suggested the pro- ponents include washroom facilities in their calculations. No objections were raised to council's plan to tar and chip concession 12-13 from Dashwood' north for five miles. One coat in June and another in July will be one- third cheaper than asphalt, and will pay for itself in four to five years with the savings on gravel and calcium., Anyone interested in having a picture and history of his farm in the Huron Atlas presently being compiled was told to pick up an application at the township office. Inclu- sion in the book, plus a copy of the atlas when it is printed, costs $35, which will also be the purchase price when the atlas goes on sale. Before adjourning the meeting, Wilder said council would consider all points of view expressed that evening when councillors make a deci- sion on the ball diamond at their next regular meeting on March 5.
