He has lived on the road forc34 years and has never known it to be fully gravelled. The road has bean built up with sand in several places, however, these have a tendancy to become muddy in the spring and after a rain in summer. Council is quite sympathetic to the request and will consider the matter in future. Mr. Siegfried Blondeel meets with Council to request permission to harvest trees on the lot line of the municipal garage. He had planted Colorado spruce several years ago as nursery stock. The properties that he owned and that of the municipality have both changed ownership since the planting, and Council believed the trees to have been planted to mark the lot line. Mr. Blondeel will replace the spruce trees with cedar. Council informs Mr. Blondeel that they are not willing to have the spruce trees removed at this time. 1664 Messrs. K. Emerson, R. Thurston and D. Brackenbury meet with Council to discuss the possibility of the fire agreement being negotiated to be put on a mill rate basis whereby the Village and Township pay the same mill rate. The necessity of purchasing a new truck in the near future is mentioned. It is decided that the rates as discussed at the meeting held March 18th. should be ratified. As the agreement is to be for three years, the possibility of a mill rate agreemnt will be discussed at that time. Mr. Gene Schmeltz meets with Council to request permission to erect a sign to direct patronsto the Big Bend Raceway. It is to be at the south east corner of the intersection of the road between Lots 5 and 6, N. Gore and the road between North Gore and Conc. 8. The sign will be about 2�' by 8' and placed in a position not to interfere with trafic vision. Council agrees that a sign can be placed to the satisfaction of the road superintendent. The Clerk is intructed to write to Mr. L Dujardin informing him that a culvert is to be installed on the road between Lots 2& & 2j, Conc. 1, to allow water presently ponding at Lot 2f to find an outlet. If this is not satisfactory, it will be necessary to have a municipal draft installed with the assistance of an engineer. Councillor G. Nelles reports that a drain has been installed on the Matthews property with outlet in a barrel on Township property at Lot 126, N.T.R. This will have to be remedied should any future development take place at this property. Moved by: J. Volkaert and Seconded by: G.

This is for removing snow from a catchbasin in March when there was considerable water franthe spring thaw. While Council is sympathetic to Mr. Burwell's request for payment, this is a type of maintenance carried out by many people to protect their properties at such times and to make payment for this type of work would be setting a precedent that would be very difficult to maintain in the future. Mr. Jos. Barzo meets with Council to request calcium on the road between Concession 9 & 10, west of No. 19 Hwy. He is also interested in knowing if any construction will be done this year. Council informs Mr. Barzo that he can expect the road to be calciumed very shortly and that some construction is expected on the road this year. 1666 Mr. James Gibbons meets with Council to review road matters. It is expected thst the new pick-up truck will be delivered very shortly. The roads are now very dry and dusty and calcium should be applied as soon as practical. Mr. Tony Donck meets with Council to request some action be taken to have no parking signs erected along Hwy. No. 3, on the south westerly side at North Hall. It is very difficult to see oncoming trafic at this point when coming from County Road 44, if there are vehicles parked on the highway. Council will request the Ministry of Transportation & Communications to lokk into this matter. Mr. William Underhill meets with Council to review building matters. He has a quotation of $4,500. to clean and paintthe community centre roof, with Butler providing the materials. As this is a specialzed type of work he has not been able to get a second quoatation. Also, the roof over the library should be replaced and quotations of $ 2400. and $ 3550. depending on whether insulation is applied under the roof. Council advises him to proceed with the work without applying the insulation. Mr. Clayton Jackson meets with Council to express his view that it is not necessary to open the road between Concessions 3 & 4, past his property at Lot 19, Conc. 4. However, if the road is opened Mr. Jackson requests that his entrance be left as is. The entrance is level and as there are trucks using it to remove timber a good entrance is required. Council assures Mr. Jackson that if the road is opened his entrance will be left to his satisfaction. Messrs. John Szakal and Luc Dujardin meet with Council to discuss a drainage problem. Mr. Szakal has a problem with water ponding at the township road between Lots 20 & 21, Conc. 1. This has been caused by the removal of a culvert under the road when the Nevill Drain was constructed. The problem cd h be solved by repladng the culvert or constructing a new branch to the Nevill Drain to accomodate the water accumulating on Mr. Szakal's property. Mr. Dujardin is not in favour of a new branch to the drain but would have no objections to the installation of a culvert. Coundl will have a culvert installed under the road during the summer and it is expressed that if there is a further problem it will have to be remedied by a branch to the existing drain. Miss. Kelly Everitt meets with Council to request consideration of her services as leader at the day camp this summer. Miss. Everitt has had this position in the past. As this is a function of the Parks, Recreation & Community Centres Board, Miss Everitt is to be invited to the next meeting of the Board to make application as a day camp leader. Moved by: J.
