TOWN COUNCIL HOLD JANUARY MEETING' The Seaforth town Council held its first business meeting of the Year in the council chamber on Monday evening. Irnpertant business included the, granting of a building permit to John L. Rice for a $12,000 gas station and showroom on Goderich Street, apd _making arrangements to register a new street plan for the de- velopment of the former Tucker - smith Agricultural property as build- ing lots. All members of council were pre- sent, Mayor Keating presiding. The council had met in the morning for the official organization meeting. A request from Mr. Rice to build a gas station and auto display room on property he had bought from the McColl Frontenac Co. on .the north side of Goderich street between Main Street and West William street was considered. Mr. Rice was present and explained his plans to council, He said the building would be about 14 feet high, built of cement blocks with a crystalline covering. Councillor Scoins asked if Council had passed a notion giving' half the proceeds from outside fire calls to the firemen. The town has received $50 from Tuckersmith for a fire call last summer, A motion was passed giving the firemen half the money from outside fire calls, and retroac- tive for the ,year 1949. It was report- ed that 'Clinton had been paid $75 for the fire call here on Nov. 21; the airport had made no charge for the fire call the sante night. The mayor read a letter from Watson & Reid dealing with compen- sation insurance coverage for the town's clerical employees, tine Volun- teer firemen and all other town em- ployees. It was reported that. due to chang- es in the act governing compensa- tion for volunteer firemen that all claims for compensation would now be awarded by the workmen's com- pensation board and the awards paid by the insurance company, previous- ly the awards had been made by the insurance company. An application for purchase of a lot 60 x 132 feet between Mr. Din- woodie's house and the Shell station to George H. Miller, was accepted by council subject to registration of the new survey and other conditions to be arranged at time of sale. It was said that Mr. Miller was making ar- rangements for building a house on this property. This application led to an exten- sive discussion of the new plan for the former. Tuckersmith Agricultur- al property on the West side of the town. The new survey is all done and has been sent to Toronto for approv- al and will be registered at Goderich, It will be necessary for the council to pass a notion cancelling the old Tuckersmith Agricultural survey. Councillor McMaster said they were busy planning the drains. Reeve Sills said that it would be necessary to, have an award drain through the Reynolds and Beattie properties, or council could go to the people and make arrangements. iReeve Sills said the surveyor had made levels through the property. He figured they had a 13 -foot fall to where dram would cross highway. The drain would- cost about 35,000. Total cost of the development will be about $10,000, The municipal board will be asked for permission for the town to draw on reserves 'to finance the project. Council plans to hold a special meeting to consider the plan and drain awards in detail. The Mayor said that the electric power line would be placed at the back of the lots in the new survey. Councillor Close reported that a Bell Telephone underground cable had been cut on Louisa Street. A man working•for Mr. T. Smith had cut it, be said. Council appointed' Mr. E. Larone as the town's representative on the hospital board. Councillor Close reporting for the street committee said he had a re- quest from the Supertest station to connect their ear wash rack to the drain on iGoderich,street. At present it is connected to another drain, which has plugged up frequently. Council decided to advise the install- ation of a grease and gravel trap, and see ifi,that would helpmatters. Mr. Close said there had been com- plaints about drains, and that some of the towns warning lanterns had disappeared. He said the stone crush- er had been dismantled for the sea- son, and it was only possible to get gravel for East William Street, which was in bad shape, It would be hard for residents to get in coal, etc. Councillor Christie reported that the alley behind Main Street needed gravel.
