At that time the Health Unit found several things 4 wrong and informed the Vil- lage that it must provide the following for both male and female washrooms: --Self closing doors; -- An adequate supply of soap in a suitable container or dispenser. -- Individual cleantowels for use of each person using the washroom facilities; -- A suitable receptacle for used towels and waste mater- other down and put a padlock on the washrooms themselves. Councillor Phil Orde said he was under the impression that the Health Unit was mak- ing the Village its favorite tar- get for inspections and that perhaps "they should inspect places besides Port Perry." Earlier this summer the Health Unit ordered the clos- ing of the Birdseye Swimming Pool because of inadequate chlorination and filtering. Since then, conditions at the pool have improved and it was reopened on the Aug. 15 weekend. | Sunday. John remained for: Mr. and Mrs. Cecil Fralick spent Monday in Oshawa.

Councillor Joe Podres, who is in charge of parks, told council last Wednesday he had visited the washrooms 8 on "upteen" occasions and could see nothing seriously wrong. He admitted, however, that there were times when there should have been soap and towels on hand. : » Council is reluctant to spend a great deal of money repairing the washrooms since it is considering building new washrooms in the future to take advantage of the sewers. Deputy-reeve Bruce Beare said the Village should keep the. washrooms as clean as possible but if the Health Unit wanted to lock them up to let 14 Reeve nenny said he would like to discuss this with the Ontario Water Resources Commission and the Vil- lage's consultant firm before making a decision. However, council members generally felt it would be poor business to make the lump sum payment. They reasoned that inter- est that could be.accrued on $200 over 40 years and the inflationary trend of money would result in actually pay- ing more than at $14.14 year- ly for the same period. Reeve Kenny said he would like to discuss this with the Ontario Water Resources Commission and the Vil- lage's consultant firm before making a decision. Hires Inspector Continued been carried out because he maintained it wasn't part of his job, said Mr. Crawford. The foreman went on to say that normally it would be the Village's job to enforce the 'v order but he had told Mr. Hull he would be away on holidays and couldn't check on it. Councillor Phil Orde said council should find out just who is responsible for the job since it is essentially an Ont- ario Water Resources Com- Dredging Continued oting the new ball field further south is that it will virtually eliminate damage to cars and boats from flying balls. At the last meeting, coun- cil. received two complaints about foul balls; one that Jproke a car windshield and another that smashed wind- ows in a houseboat at the yacht club. One problem still remain- ing it was to name the new ball park. It was suggested at the #last meeting that it be named Van Egmond Ball Park in memory of the young Smith- sville man who was killed earlier this summer in a cave-in on North Street. But no decision was made nd the matter is still under onsideration. mission project. (Since then the OWRC has been contacted and has in- formed the Village that it is their (Port Perry's) responsi- bility to inspect the trenches.) During discussion ot the matter council decided it should go ahead and hire an inspector. 3 They considered~ bylaw enforcement tg Don Los- combe for the task figuring that with the easing of parking duties at the lake he would be able to fit the inspecting job into his work schedule. Consideration to hiring a full time helper was given when - Mr. Crawford pointed out that the work load had now increased to make it almost an eight hour day. Bylaw Officer [] Quits Position The Village is on the look out for another bylaw enforce- men officer. Don Loscombe, who has held the post since early this year, has resigned. Last Wednesday council received a letter from Mr, Loscombe requesting an $80 a month increase in pay to "cover the extra duties of parking meters and school guard." But council's consensus was that they would pay Mr. Loscombe the extra money if he took on added duties of trench inspecting. The Thomas picnic was held on Sunday at Mr. and Mrs. H. Thomas at Pine Point. Relatives were present from Oshawa, Greenbank, Sunder- land and Cannington. Mrs. Bertha Valentine of Winnipeg has returned home Water Cutoff Irks Hospital The hospital administrator has warned council that if the water supply to the hospital is cut off without notice it could result in the death of a)' patient. He said the water had been cut off recently and in future would like to know about it in advance. Clerk John Raines said he explained to the administrat- or that if the Village had known about the cutoff the hospital would have been in- formed. He said the Village doesn't always know in ad- vance. Reeve Robert Kenny said when the water is stopped to make repairs, the supply is restored as quickly as poss- ible. Home Gets Two Refuse Pickups The Community Nursing Home will now get two gar- bage pickups a week. Before last Wednesday garbage' at the Home was only being picked up once weekly but council decided a biweekly collection would be in order since most of the businesses in the Vill age get that service. Cottages Wanted © REALESTATE LTD REALION 985 - 7373 Council said it was sure the duties of crossing guard and meter enforcement had been . included in Mr. Los- combe's original terms of employment. They also mentioned that the bylaw enforcement offic- er's salary would be coming up for adjustment in the near future. Service at Grace at 9:45 a.m. You are invited to attend.
