He estimated the cost of an 8 foot by 4 foot laminated Oak top table and a small 4 foot by 4 foot table for the chambers at $1,000. The cost of the carpeting, installed by Lawrie Decorating will be approximately $1,100. The entire project will run an estimated $1,000 under budget. -This is a room to be proud of," Reeve Cronin said to the council. Councillor William Howson agreed and said "We're starting from fresh, let's 1nako it look the best." The mysterious odor Now that council has solved the crowded situation at their meetings, they have ambers another problem on their bands - the "'apterous odor that is present in the munielpal building and library. -AecOrding to Reeve Cronin, the smell has caused considerable embarrassment to himself and to the village. Last fall, Reeve Cronin told council that be was embarrassed when the smell of the building was discussed at Huron County il- Councby the county library. The Huron County Library complained that books coming from the Blyth Library had an odor to them. s Council learned that the basement of the building has a history of being wet and in an effort to get rid of the musty odor, they installed a dehumidifier in the library and added a fan in the basement. Those efforts did little to irnproye the situation. Two months ago, Town Foreman Ritchie went into the basement and found_ that the furnace filter was off and iy*g: on the dirt flocir. He immediately rePlacedit with a new filter. Speculation surfaced at the April 2 meeting that sewer gases may be seeping into the basement of the building. The unknown smell haspersisted andhes the council stumped. It was decided at menclay's meeting that the Huron County Health Unit will be called in immediately to find the root of this problem. ;11 d"'Y t•t" Tenders sent out Council has asked for tenders on the job to repair the Memorial Hall ceiling. Plans and specifications were received from Public Engineer Art Clark and a committee was set up by the Recreation Committee and reviewed the plans before they were sent out to Josling Bros. Const., Falconer Const., Brooks Const., Ray Storey Const. and _ Lawrie Decorating. Electrical plans are to be sent to Bromley Electric, Fred Lawrence Electric and Wayne Pletch Electric for tenders. Tenders will close on April 18 and council expects the work to be done b_etween May 14 and May 24.
