GODZRICB TWP - A change being propos-
ed by the Town of Goderich to make some of
their industrial zoned land into highway
commercial has raised the ire of the
GOderich Township Council.
The reason for their anger is explained in
a ,motion they passed in their meeting of
September 1. The motion states, "That the
township protest this apparent contradic-
tion of statements - since the town was so
desperately in need of more industrial land
that the township co-operated and assisted
them in annexing some 40 acres of township
land for industrial purposes - and now the
town intends to remove a section from in-
dustrial to hirway commercial."
An application for rezoning was submitted
to council from James Knight. The change
is to allow less set back on his side yard than
the zoning allows. Council accepted the p -
plication and referred it to the County Plan-
ning Department for circulation.
Greg Neilson presented a request for a
loan for shore line erosion control. Council
moved that the application be approved,
subject to availability of funds.
A letter of protest about a water ,problem
arising from surface water runoff was given
to council by Neil Mustard. Council moved,
"That Mr. Mustard be advised to consider
the feasability of initiating a Municipal
Drain."
A bylaw to establish a tile drain debenture
for one owner for a total of $4,900 was passed
by council.
They also passed a bylaw to establish
shore line debentures on five owners for a
total of $21,900.
Four building permits were requested of
council, and all were ordered issued.
Accounts were ordered paid in the amount
of $131,344.17.

GODERICH TWP - During a special coun-
cil meeting held here on August 25, council
decided to veto Dick Peever's proposal to
put a trailer park on a part lot of the
Bayfield Concession.
Following a study of letters of objection,
letters in support and requests for informa-
tion, council passed the motion, "That we
recommend to the Huron County Planning
Department that Harbour Lights (Peever)
application not be approved in its present
form."
Council decided to call tenders for an of-
fice addition to the Goderich Township Com-
munity Centre.

Bruinsma was accepted by council, and will
be referred to the Huron County Planning
Board .for further action.

ing being changed from AG -1, which is
agricultural, to AG -3, which allows a person
to live and operate a business in an
agricultural area.

18, council passed a bylaw which will
designate the Holmesville Ball Park as the
G. G. (Gerry) Ginn Memorial Ball Park.

ing pit run and crushed gravel for the

cil, subject to approval from the Ministry of

tection loans were requested of council, and
