MacNaugh- ton Park scenic gardens - for a contribution to their fundraising program. Lions member John Stephens said that fund- raising eflorts for the gardens will expand out- side the search for large corporate and per- sonal donations. For $101, anyone will be able to engrave a three -line message on a 12x24 cm paving stone that will grace the walkway through the gardens. A $5(X) dona-. tion will buy a 24 ern square stone with six lines of text. and a $1,00(1 donation will see a border of 10 em square stones framing a 24 cm engraved stone. Samples of how the finished pawing will look will he on display soon in a Main Street store front. said Stephens. adding that ono of the hopes is to sec the stones purchased as Christmas gifts in the recipients names. "1'c'rc hoping it will catch on," said Ste- phens. He said it was pointed out to him that since each line of text on the engraved stones can have a ma.xinuun of lepers, the first line can read "in memory or. Plaques can also be installed on the 12 benches that will he tound in the gardens, with a purchase price of $310. All donations to the gardens over S25 will get a tax-deductible re- ceipt. The project, which is expected to cost about $175,000, also got a big boost the other day w hen the family of the late MP Charlie Mac - Naughton, after whom the park is named, do- nated $12,358 to purchase the Shubert Choke- cherry tree line that will border the north edge of the scenic gardens. "We were really pleased that was the one they wanted to take," said Stephens, noting he was contacted by MacNaughton's son John, who was eager to support the project. Tsvo major gardens remain to he "pur- chased" in the park: the $18,0(X) Tiered Ga - mho Garden. and the $9,70) Crescent Garden, for both of which Stelihens said the Lions have some prospective buyers. The largest garden, the central Rock Garden, will cost about $37,(XX) to build, and has been undertaken by the Lions Club itself. Donations of materials and labour has been coining in to support the project from several sources, said Stephens. Everything is on schedule and the planting of the last 24 trees in the gardens this season is expected to be com- pleted this week. The gardens should then be ready for a major planting next spring. The Lions Club is acting as general contrac- tor for the project, and may he able to realize some savings for the purchasers of a few gar- dens. "We still think we're doing it the cheapest way," said Stephens. Donors list Donations to the MacNaughton Park scenic gardens project are as follows. Some of the funds are earmarked to create specific gardens. Others are to help with the overall costs of the pro- ject, which are expected to total about $150,000, plus taxes. jtecent donatippa Beta Sigma Phi Sorority Alpha Tau Chapter $300 Kongskilde $500 Eric and Terry Heywood $300 Stan Stephens $100 Scouting Organization $214 Donna Jones $300 John MacNaughton $12,358 Donations before May 1994 Exeter Business Association $9,900 Exeter Town Council $4.000 Bart DeVries Photography $400 Clinton Community Credit Union $2,500 Exeter Optimist Club $300 Exeter [Sons Club $50,000 National Trust $1,000 Gary Bean $6,000 ' Ausable River Nomads $200 , Royal Bank $1,000 Exeter t,ioness Club $4,350 Exeter Times -Advocate $1,000 Andex Metal Products $3,000 Exeter Legion $8,100 Large Auction Sale to be held for the Huron County Board of Education at Richard Lobb Auction Building in Clinton Saturday, October 29 at 9 a.m. MACHINE SHOP EQUIPMENT: 4 steel lathes, 2 Contour Band saws, tool and cutter grinder, shaper, cutter grinder, 2 surface grinders, 2 pedestal grinders, 5 drill presses, Clark hardness tester, steel tables.

Auctioneer Richard Lobb 482-7898 Clinton Infrastructure grant confirmed Exeter will get more than $500,000 for four sewer lines, and the Old Town Hall EXETER - Provincial Municipal Affairs Minister Ed Philip joined MP Paul Steckle and MPP Paul Klopp in Exeter Friday morning to confirm more than half a million dolla,s in funding for the town's in- frastructure grant program projects. To the $526,679 first announced in January under the Canada/ Ontario Infrastructure Program, the town will add another $263,339 for the construction of a new sewer line on Rosemount Avenue., an ex- tension to the stone drain on Al- exander Street East, the re- placement of a sewer line on John Street East, and the renovation of the Old Town Hall intcra municipal office. The three sewer projects, worth a total of $211.631, have already been completed. The Town Fiall project. although a hot issue for this fall's election, is slated for a con- struction start in mid -winter. The press conference was at- tended by a few members of coun- cil, including mayoral candidate Lossy Fuller, a supporter of the project. Ben Hoogenhoom, the candidate asking the project be put on hold. did not attend. Municipal Affairs Minister Ed Philip said the fact Ontario allowed the decisions to he made at the lo- cal level as to how to hest spend the infrastructure funds proved a good idea. Other provinces have allocat- ed their funds themselves, "Our program seems to be work- ing better than other provinces." said Philip. "You have the Mu- nicipalities and school hoards de- ciding what's hest for their com- munities." "What it symbolizes is a new style of politics...cooperation rather than competition," he said, con- gratulating the federal government for initiating such a partnership. Philip said the spending of $2.1 Killion, shared three ways. in On- tario will create about 37,0(0 direct and indirect jobs. The four Exeter projects are claimed to create 490 person -weeks of short-term em- ployment. Although there are plans to re- direct any leftover funds hack to municipalities that want them, Phil- ip said that appears unlikely. "So far. we're expecting all the money will be used up." he said. Grand Bend's official plan in the works However it could take a while for the document to be completed GRAND BEND - This may be hard to swallow, but the ex- ceptance of Grand Bend's official plan could take up to four years. At the recent council meeting, Annc Marie Howard of the Lamb - ton County Planning Department said it took the province four years to approve Plympton Township's plan. "We're happy there won't be a lot of debate but they do seem to be getting longer," said Howard. Grand Bend has a little bit of work still to do on its plan and dep- uty -mayor Cam Ivey said currently, there arc a couple of groups which have some concerns which is delaying the process somewhat. "We were looking at the re-classification of some areas. It con- cerns some property down at the lake," said Ivey. The last official plan for Grand Bend waft drawn up and -approved- - in 1980. The village has gone through a lot of changes since then in- cluding expanding its boundaries to take in portions of Stephen and Bosanquet Townships. "Our old official plan was somewhat dated. There have been a number of people talk to us," said Ivey. "This council would like to see it get done. it's a process that goes to Toronto." The county's planning department along with the village send of official plan to the Ministry of Municipal Affairs who in turn make their changes and send it hack. The process can be repeated several times. Got a news tip? 235-1331 MP Paul Steckle pointed out that the infrastructure program came out of the Liberal Party's platform in last fall's election. He said the promise was to find a way to put $6 Killion towards rebuilding the coun- try's hard services, and leaving the decision for that spending up to the municipalities has proved a good one. He compared the project to ren- ovate Exeter's Old Town Hall into a "civic corner" to Stanley Town- ship's Community Centre Complex, built under a similar program in the early I980s. "That has since become the focal point of our municipality," said Steckle. "If you were to take it away you'd have a war on your hands. "Although at the time, there was a small war over getting it done," he said, suggesting the current con- troversy over Exeter's Town Hall. MPP Paul Klopp said he really liked the way the program first al- located the amount of funds each municipality could spend. Huron County's allocated amounts were announced January 24. Giving each municipality and school board a "budget" rather than asking for applications for a pool of money proved a good decision. "I hope we can do more of that, as we progress," he said. Mayor • Bruce Shaw said past complaints from towns and villages about upper levels of government are "going away", now that coop- erative programs like this one are allowing municipalities a share in the decision-making process. Shaw explained that the town held a public meeting to explore ways of making use of the grant funds and ended up with "a nice balance with what's going on". Although grant program often are spent "underground", like the three sewer upgrades, Shaw said the Town Hall project means town res- idents will "see a physical man- ifestation of your generosity, and the taxpayer's money". The mayor invited Steckle, Klopp and Philip back to see the finished Town Hall reno✓ations when com- plete. He also pointed out that the town's $263,339 share of the pro- jects was accommodated in the town's budget over two years, with- out any increase in taxes.
