AfTIhG MAYOR
COunoillor Mint nd Daly was,
named. Acting'Mayor at the regn•
lar July meeting of Seaforth
Connell on Monday night owing,
to the illness of Mayor B, Is
Christie,
A representative from the De.
pertinent. of Transport told conn-
ed
that speed limit signs at the
eastern edge of Seatorth had been
wrongly placed inside the town
limits, contrary to the rules, and
would be changed immediately.
Council decided that the town
finances are such that council
cannot lay a sewer Line for the
new Separate School, and recom-
mend that the Separate School
Board proceed with their original
plan for connecting to the sewer.
The town solicitor will be in-
structed to proceed immediately
with arrangement far a tax gale
this year.
Trailers will be charged a
monthly license in Seaforth of
$10 for under 20 feet long, and
510 aver 25 feet,
Third reading was given to by-
law 621 for the sewer in the north-
west portion et Seaforth, cost
$105,000, to bo financed by the
Ontario Water Resources Commis-
sion.
Monday, August lst, was pro-
claimed Civic Holiday in Sea -
forth,
In discussion about appointing
an acting mayor, Town Clerk D.
H, Wilson said it was not neces-
sary to grant leave of absence to
the Mayor at this time, The pro-
cedure would be to appoint an
acting mayor for this meeting,
and he would automatically be
mayor until next regular meeting.
Cohmcillor Daly suggested Reeve
Ball, who replied "Nor"
Councillor Brady moved that
Councillor Daly bo acting mayor,
seconded by Reeve Bali.
John G. Saunders, of .the De-
partment of Transport, said he
had not been able to determine
how an error had been made in
ereeting 40 mile per hour signs
within the town limits on the east
side of Seafortit. It was the policy
of the Department not to come in-
side town limits without first con-
sulting the local council and if a
speed limit change was found acs.
vlsable, the council was asked to
pass a -bylaw before signs were
erected, Ile said in this case he
would recommend that the 30
mile per hour signs be extended
about 200 feet east of the town
limits, and the 45 nr.p-h, signs
would be easterly about 1800 feet,
well up on the hill. The 45 mph
signs are intended merely as a
buffer zone, between the highway
speed of 60 and town speed of 30.
The motorist begins to reduce
speed as he enters the zone, or
gathers speed as he leaves town.
While an error had been made,
tests showed that the presence of
the sign does not seem to have in-
creased speeds.
Councillor Brady mentioned
that a •hospital entrance will open
on the highway within a year or
two, inereasing the hazard at the
town limit. He agreed that motor-
ists regulate their speed to condi-
tions, pointing out that a car
which struck a boy recently at the
bridge was slowed down to 25
mph at the bridge..
Councillor Daly said he had to
go at 5 mph recently due to the
number of bicycles coning out of
the Lions park, 400 children are
receiving swimming lessons daily
at the pool and about the same
number visit the pool every after-
noon, At weekends hundreds of
Persons visit the park,
Councillor Cardno said these
conditions exist only for a couple
of months while the pool is open,
and he realized the speed limits
had to be set for the whole year.
;AM'r. Saunders agreed and said if
an unreasonably low speed limit
is set anywhere, no one pays any
attention to it. Traffic adjusts its
speed to many 'factors, and speed
limit signs actually don't have
too 11111011 effect if they are out of
line with conditions,
He said a fieldman had macre a
traffic profile last Wednesday af-
ternoon, anti a sample al 200 ob-
serva,Lions showed that traffic is
proceeding very much slower than
the signs,
,Councillor Brady agreed, and
said that the Old signs brought
the 50 mile speed right up' to the
town limits, this buffer zone
should certainly be a .help,
Councillor Cardno said it would
ue ideas to have a sidewalk built
on the south side of Goderich St.
from Coleman street to the Lions
Park, Councillor Turnbull said
the bicycles would still have to
cross the bridge and go to the
road entrance, Councillor Brady
thought a bicycle park should be
established at the west end,
Aeting Mayor Daly said She dis-
tance had been roughly measu'ed
out at 1000 feet and the cost esti-
mated at $441, If the distance is
1500 feet cost would be around
5700, but it was still worth white,
Councillor Turnbull said bicycles
are net allowed on sidewalks and
it should he made a bicycle path,
Councillor Daly asked 1Nr.
Saunders if the Department is
aware how dangerous the steep
grade is at the east side of Sem
forth, the view being very short,
Iio thought the bad hill should be
levelled off,
Councillors were agreeable to
accepting the proposed location
or the signs, and Mr, Saunders
said they would be changed with.
,Councillor Edmund Daly, who
was named Acting Mayor of Sea -
forth in the absence of Mayor
Christie at the July meeting of
town council. Mr. Daly was in the
RCAF during World War II and
since had served on the town
council for several years, when he
was chairman at the Streets Com-
mittee, He returned to Council
this year.
in 10 days,
The town treasurer's financial
report showed that 513,649 tax
arrears had been collected 111 the
first six months this year, an in-
crease of $5000 over collections in
the same period last year, 50% of
current taxes hacl been paid to
date.
Finance committee chairma
Brady said the bank had sugges
ed the council Pursue a taxi sal
with all vigor. Also they suggeste
that some inducement be Orme
to those who might pay their tax
es in full at July 1st, and that to
penalties be increased, Mr. Wi
son said the Act sets a penult
limit of. 6 per cent Per annum
but had said it the bank solicitor
could show the town any nietho
of increasing the penalty, counci
would be glace to do so. The bans
had also asked for assurance tha
110 sewer work be done out of cul
rent revenue.
Councillor Thorpe Rivers
streets chairman, said four tree
had been cut down, culvert re
paired, grass and weeds cut, brae
top wrork done at the Lions park
A couple of streets had been miss
e(, with the calcium,
Property committee chairma
E. Daly said roof leaks at the po
lice station had been repaired
also on the town garage and fir
hall. Eavestrough and down pipe
needed replacing on the tow
hall, allowing water to pour clow
ou the roofs causing leaks.
A request from Topnotch Feed
for renewal of monthly lease o
the aid shoe factory was granted
Eleven building permits had
been issued for a total of $11,780
The building bylaw had not bee
finalized owing to technical de
lays, some specifications in the
old bylaw being obsolete.
He asked if council wants to
dispose of two lots beside the re-
creation grounds, as there had
been an inquiry. On suggestion of
Reeve Ball council will advertise
the lots for sale by tender. Prices
mentioned ranged from the offer
of $10 to $25, to $40 paid for an-
other lot, to $000 being' asked and
obtained for lots north of Sea -
forth to $1000 asking price on
lots 'bordering town.
Councillor Daly was hopeful a
50 per cent grant might be obtain-
ed from the Dept. of Highways
Ola a sidewalk to the Lions Park.
He asked that council set license
for howling alley in lime with bil-
liard room license, as the old $17,-
00 bowling they rate had never
been adjusted, In regard to month-
ly fee for trailers, .most towns
around charge $'10 per month. The
legal limit is $20. He thought if
a person had an $8,000 trailer the
tee should be $20 to bring it in
line with an $8,000 house, When
a fee is charged children from the
trailer are entitled to school pit.

Gooihilock Street Extension, a
Safe Approach to Lions Park
Listening to the discussion at
JSeaeorth eauncil meeting 1louday
night about the menace to cl)Lttl-
ren of traffic Hazards en the high-
way at the eastern side of Sea -
forth, brought to mind a sugges-
tion made to this Newspaper a0me
time (Igo,
This :plan may not he feasible,
but assuredly it offers a new and
interesting approach to a problem
which has greatly increased dur-
ing the 33 years since the early
days of the swimming pool. High-
way travel has grown tremendous-
ly, likewise use of the park and
pool, And the trend will continue.
The suggestion Was to extend
Goululock street east, from its
present blind 0(111 behind the
Wright. & Leyburn property, ac-
ross the Wilson farm, to (110 kions
Paa'k. The distance is aboili one
block.
1f all highway entrances to the
park were closed off, tl'affie to
and Grim the pari( would lie using
EL quiet back street, safe from the
juggernauts of the main highway.
Possible? Ahty be not, There
may be too Many -far-tors involved,
IL would appear, however, that
the only real solution to the
danger that now exists is to ('onr-
pletely separate Park traffic from
tiro highway. And a one block ex-
tension of Gatitnlock street would
appear to he all nttew•er,
