Ina Schedule which had keels co 15'idered >?Y the fi- nance committee and which had been recommended to coun- cil, increases in the amount of insurance carried on were agreed on. The additional prem- ium involved amounts to $543. In the past, total premiums were $1,926.00, and under the new arrangement will be $2,- 469.00. Remuneration of local agents will be continued on :the point system. The enlarged policies will provide protection for the band shell, the sewage treatment plant, and the roundhouse at Agricultural Park, which pre- viously were not covered. It was also suggested that the town provide for the insurance on the Arena in an increased amount. In the past ,the policy had been for $49,500.00, with $5,000.00 on machinery, and council was of the opinion that this was not adequate. "It simply is not realistic," Coun- cillor MacLean, chairman of the finance committee, said. "The Arena is more prone to fire than any other building. There is smoking there, and if the arena commission cannot af- ford additional coverage, then the town should take over the insurance." The matter was re- ferred to the finance committee to discuss with the arena com- mission. Premium payments will fall due in one lump sum each Sep- tember, at• which time it was arranged Ithat the insurance program would be reviewed. Advance Payments Answering a query by . the Department of Municipal Af- fairs concerning the effective- ness of the auditors' statement being published, council indi- cated it felt it was a good idea. In this way taxpayers were giv- en an opportunity of learning the extent of the town's finan cial operations, and had the as- surance through the auditor's comments that the operation was being carried on satisfac- torily. Concern was expressed as a result of a letter from QWRC indicating that a portion of capital charges on the construc• tion program recently complet- ed would fall due in 1963. Councillors recalled that in dis- cussions ' with. the commission, no reference had been made to the first payment falling due this year, and as a result no provision had ,as made for it in estimates. No charges were being levied against pro- perty owners for frontage tax during 1963, and since tax no- tices were already out, the only way this could be done would be through a supplemental levy. Council said that it had understood that payments would not fall due until 1964. Mayor Dinsmore doubt e d there was reason to worry at the moment since, as he said, the OWRC had never been in any particular hurry to answer queries from the municipality. He reiterated that there had never been any indication that payments would be due this year, and Clerk Hammond was instructed to advise the Com- mission that such an item had not been provided for in the budget. Faced with a communication from town solicitor A. W. Sil- lery setting out in detail the involved procedure necessary to change street names, council- lors agreed that for the time being they would forget about it. The request for information had arisen some time ago as a result of confusion which exist- ed through there being three streets in town, each named George. In other correspond- ence, the Ontario Municipal Board advised council that ap- proval for debentures to pro- vide for PUC construction had been rescinded as requested. It had been found that the con- struction could be completed without the necessity of addi- tional borrowing. A letter sign- ed by D'Orlean Sills, chairman of the Grand Valley Municipal Electric Association, expressed appreciation for the assistance which had been rendered the association on the occasion of a recent meeting in Seaforth. The building bylaw was amended on the recommenda- tion of the town solicitor to provide for control of buildings being moved within or into the town. An amendment was also approved to the traffic control' bylaw which had the effect of making Crombie and Isobel Streets through streets. The amendments don't change the existing through streets in those areas. The bylaw does not be- come effective until it has re- ceived approval of the Depart- ment of Transport. - Court of revision will meet on October 28, council agreed, and at that time will consider appeals against assessment. Ap- proval was given the Treasurer to write off certain business taxes of some years ago which had been found'to be uncollect- able. Bell Telephone Co. asked for approval of certain works it proposed to undertake through- out the town, but council with- held consent until representa- tive's had appeared to explain what was proposed. Councillors referred to plans of other works, which had not been r'eeeived, although agreerilent; had been reached two mon* ago. council accepted wit regret the resignation of J. C. Cock, rage from the Library Board because of ill health. Approval was given the pur- chase of a new secretary's desk for the Clerk's office and for repairs to the ceiling in the fire hall. Reporting for the streets committee, Councillor Dalton said sidewalks had been replac- ed on John, West William and James Streets, and drains re- paired. Several drains cut off during road construction on North Main Street had been re- paired. It costs about $4.00 per week to wrap coins taken from park- ing meters, council learned when it considered purchase of a coin -wrapping device. No change is contemplated in the existing arrangement, whereby the town's bank wraps the coins for three cents, a roll. Reporting for the finance committee, Councillor MacLean said committees were under- spent $1,585.00 at the end of September. Collections on bath current taxes and tax arrears are ahead of last year, he said. Police reported 87 occurrenc- es during September, committee chairman William Wilbee re- ported. During the period 50 parking tickets had been is- sued and 22 charges laid. Chief Hulley recommended purchase of a radar controlled speed check, particularly in view of the new pavement be- ing installed, but council took no action pending further infor- mation. Councillor Wilbee said study of stoplights for the main intersection was continuing, in answer to a query from the Mayor. , Building permits in • future will be signed by the building inspector and the chairman of the committee, council agreed. "It's a matter of keeping council informed," Councillor MacLean said, in raising the matter and added, there was no reflection on the building in- spector, who was doing an ex- cellent job. He said by seeing all applications the committee chairman would be able to raise any matters that concern- ed council. "How much do I owe you, doctor?" "Eighty-nine dollars and nine- teen cente, but if you have a relapse I'll give you a discount." HARD AT WORK handling part of the more than 600 tons of cucumbers which were marketed at Dublin this year are Albert Kramer (left), Mr. Brown and Norman Kramer. Mr. Kramer completed construction of a new 66x34 building this summer in readiness for the crop grown between Stratford and Goderich. (Expositor photo by Phillips). Dublin .Provides. Cucumber Market The cucumber harvest is over for this year. Early frosts kill- ed more than half of the area crops, according to Albert Kramer of Dublin. For 18 years Mr. Kramer operated a cucumber market in Dublin, grading [the products of local fields and preparing the cucumbers for use in var- ious pickle factories. This year conditions worked against the grower, he said.. Returns were down—$900 for 11/2 acres, as compared ,to $2;000 an acre in some years. Usually about 250 acres are planted to cucumbers which in turn are handled • in Dublin. The crop this year totalled about 600 tons, Mr. Kramer said, and come frofn growers between Stratford and Gode- rich. This year it was possible to handle the crop mere quickly because of time -swing equip- MURRAY GAUNT'S LEAD INCREASES IN HURON -BRUCE Murray Gaunt increased his lead over Progressive Conserva- tive George McCutcheon to 28 votes, when the official count in Huron -Bruce was completed on Wednesday.
