It was just an oversight Ross Hastings, in the foreground, casts a perturbed look over the Wyevale Secondary Plan at a public meeting held in that hamlet last Wednesday. Hastings' truck cartage business was designated residential in the plan, but Tiny Township planner Roger Robitaille quickly assured him that it was a mere oversight. Listening to the explanation is Gerry Caston. 1 Staff photo Wyevale residents approve of secondary plan for hamlet "Wyevale cares." That's how Roger Robitaille, planning administrator for Tiny Township reacted to the more than 50 Wyevale residents who turned out August 17 to discuss the community's secondary plan. Wyevale has_ been designated as a rural service centre by the official plan of the Township of Tiny Plan- ning Area. According to planners, the hamlet of Wyevale will increase its population to 416 by the year 1991 if the present growth pattern continues. Phase one plan allows for a population growth of 738. Since the policy of Tiny's Official Plan states that when the population of a rural service centre reaches approximately 600 persons or before any large scale development occurs, a secondary plan would be prepared. Interest level among the residents was high but complaints were few. "The residents were pretty well pleased with the plan," Robitaille admitted. 'They knew what was happening before we presented this to them - there weren't any major changes."' Representations ho- wever were made to extend the amount of area designated for future commercial develop- ment. A suggestion that a residentially designated parcel of land squeezed between a commercial and industrial designation be changed to commercial, thus enlarging the amount of future commercial land by. another two lots is under consideration. The property is located ad- jacent to the Wyevale public school. A slight slip-up in locating one resident's property caused a few chuckles - and a hasty reassurance that Ross Hastings' construction company would be coloured in purple - the colour assigned industrial designations. Arena floor campaign The Penetanguishene arena floor fund now stands at $2,216.51, ac- cording to fund raising campaign chairman Frances St. Amant. St. Amant made the announcement at Monday night's meeting of Penetanguishene Town Council. She said the fastball tournament held a week and a half ago raised $1,271.26, while a snack bar operated at McGuire Park has turned a profit of $403.45. So far the teen dances, which have been held at the Legion, have raised $336.80, and private donations have accounted for a further $205.00. Coming up in the campaign are a car wash, to be held all day Saturday at the Dock Lunch on the Penetanguishene town dock, and the car elimination draw, being held at 8:30 Saturday evening at the Curling Club. Tickets for that event are $10.00 each, and 'p.m., reaks $2,000 mark will admit one couple to the draw and dance, as well as providing one chance at the car. On September 3 at 8:00 p.m., a cruise will be held on the M.S. David Richard, at a cost of $5.00 a person, and on Sep- tember 13, between the hours of 6:30 and 8:30 a door to door canvass will be con- ducted. St. Amant told council, "Tt's a must that we get the rink in operation as soon as possible." THE BODY SHOP BOUTIQUE 19th.

A major complaint of residents at the public meeting and on questionnaire forms which had been earlier mailed , to Wyevale residents concerned a need for a separate post- office building. Robitaille and mem- bers of the planning board again emphasized that location of a post office was out of the township's jurisdiction and residents would have to make overtures to the federal government. CLEAR OUT Special Recreation facility would include more than rink cont'd from p.1 Most committee members are inclined however' to believe that an arena would be the first priority in the next two or three years. Optimistic committee members however are also looking to the day when tennis courts, a curling rink, gymnasium, swimming complex and even race track and fairgrounds could be part of the recreation facility. Mrs. Sibthorpe em- phasizes that the recreation forum is not, at this point in time, asking the individual municipalities for a commitment to build even an arena, much less the complex itself. "We only want to tell everyone what we are doing, and if they are interested to give everyone the opportunity to participate in a preliminary study," she said. Any municipality will be able to drop out of the picture at the end of the needs study. "The concept is one of looking to the future needs of the people of the Tiny-Tay peninsula area," explains David Walker, Tay represen- tative on the recreation forum. "How far this thing goes is anyone's guess at this time. "We could be looking for a large parcel of land to develop the complex one, or the study could suggest that we develop PGH births Mr. and Mrs. Brian Marchand, of 35 Maria Street, Penetanguishene, announce the birth on August 21, of a girl.

Consultants will be called in to present their preliminary proposals and cost estimates, after which members of the recreation committee will decide who will proceed with the feasibility study. The launching of this newest recreation ven- ture has meant an end to Victoria Harbour and Port MeNicoll's plans to build a joint arena this fall. Ralph Gray, Victoria Harbour representative on the committee and a Harbour councillor ad- mitted on Monday that "'it was doubtful that the two municipalities could have afforded to go it alone." Tay Township had been a member of the original joint arena committee but withdrew because it felt there had not been suf- ficient study on the arena proposal. The new recreation forum consisting of the four North Simcoe municipalities was for- Terrarium care to be discussed The design and care of terrariums will be the topic of discussion at the Penetanguishene Public Library on Thursday, September 15. The lecture and demonstration, which will take place at 7:30 p.m., are being put on by the library, the Royal Botanical Gardens, the Georgian Bay Regional Library System and the Outreach Ontario program of the Ministry of Culture and Recreation. Admission is free and everyone is welcome to attend. Fred Prescod of the Royal Botanical Gardens will be giving the lecture and demonstration. In addition to his talk, he will be showing slides on various types of terrariums and also demonstrating how to put the different bottle gardens together. med in early July at the invitation of Tiny Township. Since then the members have met twice. "There's a very en- couraging feeling there," enthused Mrs. Sibthorpe.

Douglas Gardener of West St. in Brampton was found guilty of possession of stolen goods over $200 after being apprehended with a stolen van in his home town. The vehicle was reported stolen from Downer's Yacht Haven. Gardener admitted changing the ignition switch when he "lost the key," but testified; 'I'm charged with possession -- I didn't steal it." Sentencing was remanded to September 21 in Alliston. Mischief "T had been drinking," testified Brenda Cadeau while facing a charge of mischief in Midland court. Cadeau, of 4 Cambridge St. in Penetanguishene, was found guilty of breaking the plate glass window at Maurice Dress Shop July 30. Estimated cost of the window is $50. Cadeau was fined $100 and put on probation for six months. enthusiastic, we're working together very well." Members of the com- mittee are investigating the possibility of a provincial grant to assist in paying for the study. A Community Recreation Centres' grant could meet 25 per cent of the costs, while a Wintario grant could offset up to one third of the costs. This possibility will be further investigated by the consultants preparing the recreation complex feasibility report.
