The Goderich Signal-Star, 1974-11-14, Page 16L PAGE 16- QODERICH SIGNAL -STAR, THURSDAY. NOVEMBER 1.1. v1()74 Residence planned for adult retarded. The Goderich and District Association for the Mentally Retarded is drawing up plans to eeablish a residence in Goderich, for six to eight men- tally entally retarded people, 18 years of age and older. The residents would board at the house and work at the Adult Training Centre. The association feels there are many' mentally retarded people who would be capable' of moving from an institution into life at a residence. "The idea is to take them away from the institution where they may be just a num- ber, into a residence where they may he a somebody,„ said workshop ,'hairman Rill Mcl�eeN��r• (continued from page 11 representation becomes an illusion. ' "The people must be kept in- formed, have available to them through the press and other media, the debate and-' decisions reached at Board meetings,” he said. Mr. McKee pointed out to the taxpayers that it would not be easy maintaining Huron's high standard of education without putting an increasing bilydeh on the taxpayer but felt that wiser spending could relieve the problem. He conten- • dedthat the School Board had been u.nduly influenced by their admiriistrative officers in the past and that more money should • be directed towards education services and less to administrative costs: The former teacher told the gathering that he had given a great deal of energy and dedication in the classiAoom, to many generations of Colborne and 'Goderich Township students and would, continue to strive for quality education at reasonable cost, if he were elec- ted. •The board member represen- ' ting the two rural townships does so for population pur- poses. The total population of the two communities merits one member on the board and Mr. McKee pointed out .that -a resident of Colborne. has never held the position. • John Westbrook, the incum- bent, did not °react to the suggestions made by Mr. McKee and told a Signal -Star reporter that he would answer these charges at theqcolborne Township ratepayers' meeting on November 26.

The final choice though. will he left to the per- son himself. "There's no trouble to fill the residence", said Mr. Cameron "It's more a matter of getting money"' The association is hopeful of getting assistance from the Community -and Social Services branch of the Ontario govern- ment. Two officials from that branch are coming to Goderich .to determine if -grants are ap- plicable. If' approved, federal - provincial. cost sharing arrangements would cover ap- 'proximately 80 percent of' the cost 'of construction of the facilities.

A fulitime mayor would be an asset to Goderich according to Mr. Bosnell and he plans to make himself available as often as he can. He pointed out that Mayor Worsell averaged 35 hours a week in his elected position and Mr. Gosnell feels that as the town grows more and more time must be devoted to the may-r's tasks. He is con- cerned that Deb S_hewfelt's business may not allow hirn-fhe time needed for the tiwn if he becomes rrrayor.
