The only item which the village had control over was the setting of fees. The reeve said one of the reasons behind this bylaw's passage was to give the village firm legal footing in the event of a challenge to 1 its authority in issuing building permits. Such a challenge may take place in Colborne township. At the May meeting of Coun- ty Council, Huron county planning director Gary Davidson said some legal advisors have said the municipalities can not issue ,permits unless they have passed the necessary bylaws enforcing the building code. Council's concern was that the implementation of the bylaw would force the price . of housing up in Hen- sall. Knight estimated the increased cost could run as much as $1,000 per home. The approval of the building code bylaw by coun- cil was not unanimous with Campbell going on record as opposing the more stringent building regulations.. In passing the bylaw, a fee' of $4 per $1,000 was set as the fee for the construction of new homes and $3 for $1,- 000 for mobile homes. Building renovations will cost $10 forthe first $1,000 and $5 per $1,000 thereafter with a minimum charge of $25, A demolition fee of $10 was set with the same amount owing for an oc- cupancy fee for incompleted housing. Area residents are becom- ing more interested in the heritage of their local and one way of preserving that heritage is to preserve pic- tures of yesteryear, was the message that local photographer Brian Richman brought to council. Richman said there are hundreds of old photographs in the village depicting former residents and old buildings. Richman said he - had begun making -copies of pictures which have been supplied to liim by Mrs. Bob Simpson and Mrs. Minnie Noakes. Richman inquired if some form of government funding Owners of smaller businesses... we provide; • Financial assistance • Management counselling (CASE • .Management training • Information on government programs for business Can we help you?

He said he would be willing to donate his time in helping the student and help finan- cially. Richmand said such a program could cost in the neighborhood of $1,000. Mrs. Oke said the deadline for applications for most government sponsored work programs was April but that she would contact the various ministries to see if any funding for such a pro- ject was available. Reeve Knight reported the new community centre has received final approval with several items still to be completed. In the hall, several ceiling panels will have to be replaced due to a leaking roof while the arena floor is not up to specifications. On brighter note, Knight said construction in the arena appears to be ahead of schedule and some of the items which. were defficent have been fixed. A decision to purchase a new tractor for the arena has been deferred until August with council possibly splitting' the new tractor's cost between the 1978 and 1979 budgets. In other business, council: Learned that the ministry of transportation and com- munications hasallotted$94,- 000 for the construction of a storm sewer. This is down from $110,000 which the ministry had allotted one year ago. The project which would involve stream alteration work on Black creek, was delayed due to an objection from the ministry of natural resources. Received several com- plaints, over the large amounts of water in the village following Monday's heavy rains. Knight said the village could do little about the problem as the ministry of transportation and com- munications determines the .size of storm sewers on' 80 percent of the average rain- fall over five years. Endorsed a resolution 'from the town of Geraldton asking that municipal borrowing not be affected by the debt of the school boards within its jurisdictions. After the resolution was passed, Knight quipped "If you can't tell them what books to read, can you tell them what money to borrow?" Passed a resolution• from the town of Strathroy which called for volunteer fireman to be paid workman's com- pensation benefits on a regular five day work week rather than on seven days as is presently done. Have received ,word that the Wintario grant of $83,000 for the progress payment on the arena has been approved following representations from the two local members of parliament.
