Cards from neighboring libraries would be honored, with the patron responsible for returning borrowed material to the original library. Development approved Two acres of agricultural land just south of Lucknow in West Wawanosh Township will be allowed to develop residentially, following council's approval of an amendment to the county's of- ficial plan. There is already one house on the site, which will be subdivided into four lots to allow the erection of three new houses. J. W. Joynt of Lucknow applied for the amendment, saying the small size of the property and its location indicates an urban function. Reeve Ed Oddleifson of Bayfield expressed a concern the development might be annexed by Lucknow, asking for assurance "we won't lose the land". Gary Davidson, county plan- ning director, told him although Lucknow is cooperating by providing water service and snowplowing, there has been no talk of annexation. Reeve Robert Lyons of West Wawanosh Township told council he favors allowing development of the land in question. Agriculture promoted County council also approved a seconaary pian submitted by Goderich Township, outlining the direction of future development in that municipality. Reeve Ginn reported his township is under great pressure from the urban areas of Goderich, Clinton and Bayfield. The intent of the secondary plan, he said, is to remain an agricultural community while allowing development of certain land. He claimed Goderich is the first township to come up with the rural residential designation for land least suited for agriculture. This allows development of a density not to exceed one dwelling per two acres. "I think the plan suits the majority of township residents," Mr. Ginn told council, recom- mending its adoption.

The Huron Board of Education relieved themselves of all con- struction costs either for initial instruction or for any additions at their regular meeting in Clinton on May 2. Since the board was involved in the project, Wintario grants would have been lessened, however with the recreation committee now in charge the tennis court project will be able to receive higher grants and the objective will be reached. Tom Fox, staff advisor for the student's council and history department head at CHSS reported to the board that money has been raised and more is being hoped for. Included in the recomendations suggested, the board will share the cost of upkeep and main- tenance with the rec. committee since students as well as the = nnav s IT'S YOUR DAY mom community will be using the courts. If lights are added the board will pay for the costs of the hydro and the tennis facilities will go to the board if the Town of Clinton wishes to discontinue use. The high school will be out of bounds for the members of the community but the courts will be free of use to the public at designated times. The tennis courts are to be located to the rear of the school in the northwest corner between the parking lot and sports field.
