A petition with 2.500 names of school children opposed to the moving of the museum, currently in Godgrich, to Vanastra was presented to Warden Harold Robinson by Heather Larson. 11. of Goderich, The well composed 11-year:old, along with a spokes- man for concerned citizens of Goderich, Dr. Tom Jasper. spoke to county council at its Oct. 28 session. There were about 15 people from Goderich in attendance at the session. For its part. county council approved two more studies regarding the museum. One. a structural study of the present museum, will he done by B.M. Ross and Associates of Goderich. The Town of Goderich will pay S2.000 for this study, an expenditure the town has approved. The second additional study. to be done by Museum Collaborative, a museum and art gallery consulting firm, will carry out a preliminary investigation of the suitability of the former Telecommunications School in Vanstra to house a museum. A report to county council by the special committec•made up of property and develop- ment -states, "the cost of 52,000 would reduce the cost of a full scale feasibility study if carried out in the future." STUDIES County council initially authorized two studies, a structural engineering and an operational cost study. The engineering study indicated the building in Vanastra is structurally sound. At its September session, council decided to wait for the operational cost study before any final decision is made regarding the purchase of the building. Now that study will wait until the MPC completes its study of the Vanastra building. Several county councillors agreed suggest• ions received from Goderich oitizens were "interesting". One such suggestion is for the county' to purchase three historic homes adjacent to the museum for expansion purposes. "I'm not sure it is economically wise," commented Reeve Fred Haherer of the suggestion, but added, "it's something to look at." Goderich Reeve Don Wheeler said he is "pleased" with the steps the county\has taken on the museum He believes county councillors should have all information before them before a decision is made, DECISION "When it (final decision) comes out in the final wash. cvcryhco\ will have had their say." noted Reeve Wheeler and he couldn't resist adding, "we'll prnhably still hast thc museum in Goderich " Dr.Jasper said the main reason he was speaking at counts cnunl11 was "to make counts council as arc of the increasing public support" to keep thr museum in Goderich. He suggested there arc three stages of the issue and they arc to mak: the public ass are of thc situation and pubis involvement which he says leads to thc third step, public hind raising.
