The popular bandshell concerts in Palmer Park this summer were a success in more ways than one. Not only did a 'ot of people attend the open air concerts, a start-up grant from Scugog Township was returned to the municipality Mon- day afternoon. Concert chairman Bill Barr was able to return the $3200 grant money which the municipality provided for the concerts. He also turned a cash surplus from the concerts of nearly $240. Members of council were pleased that the grant money was returned to the municipal coffers, but Mr. Barr warned that the money and more would be needed for the con- cert series next summer.

The problem with traffic at that intersection is further complicated by a proposed large commercial development on the west side of the highway, immediately across from the plaza.

Some members of council want the development on the west side of the highway to include a Township- owned road that would hook up to a road allowance exiting onto Water Street. The council may have a better idea of how to pursue the installation of traffic lights at the intersection after meeting with the developer of the proposed plaza on the west side of the highway. That meeting is scheduled for ear- ly in October.
