Huron County Council
agreecj Friday to spend
$63,000 to get meals to
residents of 'Huronview,
the county home 'for the
aged.
Council's committee of
management of
Huronview recom-
mended to council that
the food delivery system
at the institution required
Modernization. That
inodernization basically
meant that the com-
mittee did away with
meals on wheels and
arranged for a new and
more efficient method of
getting meals from the
kitchen to the residents.
Huronview
"ad-
ministrator .Chester
Archibald ,told council
that the decision to_
upgrade the food delivery
system was made out of
necessity. He said the
.meals on wheels unit,
which is basically a large
wheeled unit capable of
holding a large number of
food trays white keeping
the. _food hot, was_at the
end of its road and had to
be replaced. He said the
ministry of community
and social services
refused to sanction
purchased of another
meals on wheels unit the
same as the one now in
use because ,they are no
longer on the market•and
parts for repairs for the
units are very difficult, if
not impossible, to get.
Archibald said the type
of unit§-tho ministry was
pushing the staff of
FrurOnview didn't like and
so had • investigated a
number of systems
available. He said the'one
chosen had the approval
of the ministry and fit
right into the Huronview
system.
Archibald' also told
council that as of
November 1978 the
number of long term
extended care beds • at
Huronview had been'
increased by 15. He said

Donnelly said the

mittee maintained jut-
sidiction over the park
they would have to hire

be too costly for the group

Eileen Palmer, who
attended the meeting, is
member of the finance
committee, said that

jurisdiction of the
grandstand is needed but
the board must he careful
