The Plan had been ap- proved by the minister of housing on Novel nber 18th 1976. This was before Heritage Conservation policies were in- corporated into all of- ficial plans as a result of the passing, in the Provincial House, of the Ontario Heritage Act in 1974 6amended in 1975). Sin e Bayfield's Plan had come_ first in this course of events, an amendment • was: necessary to update the village plan in conformity with Duron County's Official Plan. As the village Plan cannot be amended without a public meeting, the procedure had to be carried out, although Council already knew the sentiment of the villagers. Reeve Oddliefson recalled that two and a half years ago Bayfield Ratepayers had indicated their concern by a petition calling on the council to preserve the nature of the village. With this endorsation, the Village Council had already passed two by- laws, 104 and 105, designating the Main Street of Bayfield as a Heritage District and setting up a Local Architectural Con- servancy Advisory Committee. The public meeting was in effect therefore, merely a formality and it was unanimous in approval of a motion to support the council's action in passing the amendment which must now be ap- proved by the minister of housing. Gary Davidson, Huron County Planner and Chairman of the Goderich LACAC, an- swered questions which had arisen in the minds of property owners about the designation of their properties. "Who proposes designation?" LACAC proposes to Council, which if it ap- proves must publish notice in a newspaper and notify . the owner by registered mail within two weeks of intention to designate, whereupon the owner has the right to object. Mr. Davidson emphasized that LACAC's only function is to recommend - that it has no power.. He said that Ontario's Heritage Act is the weakest in Canada in protection of Heritage property. Trinity Guild plan events The November meeting of Trinity Church Guild was held at the home of the treasurer, Mrs. Vera Turner, on Tuesday af- ternoon, November 15 with 11 members present.

Anglican Church baptisms 1979 is the International Year of the Child and the Canadian Theme is Mankind owes to the child the best that it has to give. Trinity Church therefore gave a special welcome into Christian Family Sunday when James Andrew and Brian Llewellyn sons of Clarence" and Lynne (Alliston) Ferguson of Kingston were baptized. th e on Pastor Rev. Les. Shiel used 1st Peter chapter 2 for his text and reminded those present that God is building His house in Eternity, with Christ as the cornerstone and all born-again Christians are the building stones. We are being prepared here on earth for His heavenly kingdom. This work must be done here and now, assuffering and death will not save anyone, each must accept Christ as Saviour before death. The evening service was a con- tinuation of the indepth study of the book of Ephesians, being in the 6th chapter now. This service began with two lovely surprises, the first being .the choir, which has just started and only had a few practices, sang that beautiful hymn, "How Great Thou Art". Also a surprise for Mr. and Mrs. Norm Talbot, when Bruce Nicholson, on behalf of the Church presented them with a beautiful wall plaque of Bible verses. They ex- pressed their ap- preciation for the gift and the thoughtfulness in honor of their 40th wedding anniversary and also saying how much the church here has meant to them. The flowers in the church were in memory of Mr. Elzar Mousseau who passed away last week and -were placed in the church by his family. The church sends its sympathy to his family as he will be greatly missed by everyone who knew him. He was a great friend and neighbour and a steady witness for his Lord, even though suf- fering and blind he helped many to find their way to Salvation.

Van Egmond roof repaired Phase one of a master plan that will restore the historic Van Egmond home in Egmondville will get underway this winter following the awarding of tenders for recon- struction of the roof and parapet walls. Moffatt and White of Stratford have been awarded the contract at $14,720. Second lowest bidders, the firm offered the best financial guarantee, according to Paul Carroll, vice chairman of the Van Egmond Foundation. Cedar shingles will be installed on the roof, existing chimneys will be removed and the original chimneys, gables and parapet walls will be replaced. To tell local people about plans for the house the Van Egmond Foundation has a slide show and talk that they will offer to present to area clubs. The Van Egmond House master plan, prepared by Nick Hill has been reviewed by government agencies and has gotten final approval "in the last six weeks," Mr. Carroll said. "All the red tape is cut." The foundation is hoping to qualify for Wintario and Ontario Heritage grants to continue the restoration. A • local fund raising campaign is also •plan- ned, starting after Christmas. $40,000 raised locally will guarantee the renovation program's eligibility for grants, Mr. Carroll said. Next the group hopes to tackle a revamping of the house's heating system'. Other tenders on the roof and brick work were JAM Construction Ltd. Goderich $13,035 and Wayne and Harold Smith Construction Limited $18,716. , GUARANTEED INVESTMENTS o 5 YEAR 5/8 �o ANNUAL PAYMENTS John Wise General Insurance Guaranteed Investments 5 Rattenbury St., Clinton, Ont.
