"That's ' been. proven.', John Lyndon told the committee .that he was not concerned only with the financial needs of the elderly but also with their need of a central housing facility. He said as a member of the. Goderich Housing Authority .he w,as_concerned with people making $10,000 or less a year that needed subsidized ho.tsing tut as a'member of the housing action committee he was concerned about seniors who could well afford to pay full rent. for th:e,housing unfits but needed the physical ,. benefits of centralized„,senior',. citizen housing. " "There. just isn't any rental acc.omnigdation in Goderich for these people," said Mr. Lyndon. ' Mr..' Breckenridge .told the committee he was- not : sure they • :should be'. sollciting support for .subsidized housing:in Goderich. He said, the committee might be out of ;. line' asking for blanket sups ',port of the housing units and, :` maybe .should be just con- cerning themselves 'with..: people who are in real need of the subsidized housing. 'Reeve Gerry Ginn of. Goderich Township pointed out that the future was what the committee.. should . be planning for. He said that people who are not in any for:seeable , need of .the housing now may be. a victim of circumstance in the future • and may.have`'a need ...for subsidized housing. "They don't know they will never. use it,'*'said the reeve. .• John Lyndon said • he had, encountered people who say they don't see any -personal need. for subsidized'housing or'senior'citizen units and are • hesitant to fill out the' government forms. Mr. Lyndon said he has explained to .the'people.that by applying they are. becoming 'govern- ment statistics in Goderich; - and if they never see , the facility_.they are helping other 'seniors in town who.will use it. The. committee members. organized their .efforts and have prepared a list of the people who expressed a need. • for:housing here. They intend to go over the list together to ensure that•all the -people are 'polled about filling' out the• govern�n_ent__forms in an effort to get as many people as possible to. apply for the housing.
