At a committee of counci9 meeting, Mon- day, council members recommended that the operation and main- tenance of Agriculture Park be under the jurisdiction of the 'recreation board and that appropriate amounts of money be budgeted for its upkeep in 1979 and subsequent years. Members of the recreation board ap- proached council and asked them to deal with the. matter before committee and board budgets were finalized. Board chairman, Mary Donnelly, said the upkeep of the grandstand and the park has . beenin limbo for several years and -the costs were not reflected in any group's budget. " Town, council must take a look at the situation and decide whose budget these costs will be contained in," she said.

The -Goderich Sports Committee iscommitted to paying for the gran- dstand and all profits from the canteen have been pledged towards• retiring the debt. But with the recommendation the board would be responsible for the staff and the cleaning of the grandstand. Donnelly told council that the arena canteen is now generating excellent profits and that a properly run canteen in the grandstand could pay for upkeep of the'park. • The board now has, jurisdiction of the park and the responsibilities will likely be left with the new recreation director, Jim Moore. Briefs Winter control in Goderich has cost $19,228 to date, according to Stan Meriam, town foreman who reported to council's committee Monday evening. Meriam said that during January, snow from the core area was hauled away twice as was the snow' from some busy intersections on Huron Road and Bayfield Road. Andy Boutilier, building inspector, issued only one permit during January - $1,795 for a com- mercial project. But that doesn't mean Boutilier isn't busy.The building inspector told council much time , is spenton inspections of buildings under con- struction, to .make certain the building . code standards are being'met. Dog tags are going more slowly this year than last year, according to bylaw officer Dick Eisler. Eisler told council's committee Monday evening that 209 dog• tags were sold by this time last year, against 145 this year. During January, though, six dogs were taken to the pound, and six dogs wete redeemed from the pound. That resulted in six charges being laid against owners who allowed their dogs to run free.... whether knowingly or unknowingly. +++ The meter on the turbo fuel pump has been repaired at Sky Harbor, says airport co- ordinator Ed Scruton, and things there are getting back to normal. Last month, Scruton reported over 1,000 gallons of fuel unaccounted for while the pump was out of order, but revised figures show the loss more in the order of 100 gallons... and much more acceptable figure -to Esso who will stand -the loss. Turbo fuel sales are up this year over last year by nearly 300 gallons, but other fuel sales are down slightly from January 1978. • What is the colourful history behind Wedding day White ? • How do you choose the "right" wedding band? • Planned your budget for two? • Ever heard of a "Shower of Hours"?

GEDC member Bruce Sully reminded the committee that there were three entranceways to the Park. Other expenses in the committee's budget for 1979 include $100 for advertising, $500 for association fees and conferences, $1,050 for committee honorariums, $3,000 for legal and survey expenses to put a legal plan on the Park, and $700 sundry. Chairman Gower said he felt the budget was quite realistic. It is the same as last year's budget. The committee spent $28,113.58 of the budget in 19.7.8.. with_. $23,621.32 of this going toward maintenance of the Industrial Park in- cluding the extension of Huckins Street by 250 feet. Secretary Ken Hunter told the committee he felt it was important to get a plan registered for the Park and then con- centrate on a servicing plan. He said that Huckins Street in the Park would be assumed under the town's normal maintenance budget . The GEDC budget must still be approved by town council. After discussing the budget, the committee went on to discuss its subcommittee, structure. It was unable to pass any motions because it lacked a quorum. Gower, Sully and Haydon were the only voting members who attended the meeting and the committee needs at least four members for a quorum. Haydon said members should have the common courtesy to notify the chairman if- they are unable to attend meetings. She said she felt "put out" by the lack of this courtesy. She brought up the subject of the time of the meetings again, stating that she disliked meeting at noon Gordon McManus ; hours in a restaurant. tourism -Stan Profit; Haydon also asked if harbor -Elsa Haydon; and the agendas to the planning -Dave Gower. meetings could be sent out in advance to the members.
