Vol. 4, No. 27, Folio 54 Friday, July 4, 1980 Penetanguishene, Ontario Midland's bus wars could be settled soon Midland council, according to Mayor Moreland Lynn, will recommend to the town's parking authority that no vehicles (aside from buses) be allowed to park on the south side of Bay Street West between First Street and the west service lane. It was also recommended that a sign be erected with the wording 'Gray Coach Parking Only' so as to accommodate the bus company which recently opened a new depot next to Huronia Travel on Bay Street West. Gray Coach would rent at least three spaces from Return of the fisherkids Penetang's Children's Fishing Derby is off to a fine start this year. After the first two days, more than 75 fisherkids are registered in the summer derby. The supervised contest runs every day from the town dock between 10 a.m. and noon. There are Carnival tim The boys were setting up the rides in Penetang's waterfront park this week for the carnival. Rides started yesterday and they're on until Saturday. the town on an annual basis similar to the arrangements worked out between the parking authority and taxi companies in Midland. The recommendations were made during an in- camera meeting Wednesday night following a special session of council the same night with representatives from Gray Coach and Penetang- Midland Coach Lines. At an earlier council meeting PMCL official Brian Dubeau cited safety factors which would make parking of buses along Bay Street West un- desirable. weekly prizes, special prizes, daily winners, trophies, sun, fun, and of course, huge fish. Here Keri and Lori Watt, Jules Vallée, Shelley Smith, Mike McGendie and Robbie Smith try their luck. This ride is driven by electricity, folks -- the three men don't actually spin it around fast by hand. Councillors this week heard from John Scott, Gray Coach ticket agent and from both Doug Anton and Brian Stewart of Gray Coach. Anton, vice-president ot operations and Stewart, director of traffic for Gray Coach reviewed meetings, telephone calls and letters ex- changed between the bus company and the town before Gray Coach moved trom the PMCL terminal to its new location last month. Meanwhile Brian Dubeau said he hadn't changed his feelings about the safety factor, when asked if he had the same concerns as ex- pressed at the earlier meeting. Dubeau said the town couldn't afford to have two terminals and that PMCL would follow Gray Coach around 'so that we can both serve the public best.' Later in the meeting it was pointed out by Anton that Gray Coach's certificate to operate didn't mean Gray Coach had to accomodate other carriers. 'If PMCL wants to make an_ alternate arrangement then it is a business arrangement,' he said. Alderman Richard Platt, echoed the fears of Commissioner of Works Percy Ehler that there was a 'sight problem' if buses were to park out in front of the 'new' Gray Coach terminal. Platt also agreed with Police Chief Ernie Bates that there would be problems for cars approaching Bay from First if a bus or buses were parked near that intersection. It was suggested late in the meeting that Gray Coach arrange for a bus to locate at various sites during an 'eye ball session' so members of council could see for themselves what hazards if any the bus or buses would create. Dubeau offered the use of PMCL buses for this purpose. However following the regular part of the meeting and after adjournment, council met in-camera and eventually recommended the above solution.

Annual barbecue a success: Meridis Midland Rotarian Jim Meridis who chaired Saturday's giant barbeque at the foot of King Street (town docks) felt the annual "do" was a success '"'even though it rained for much of the day. He said he was pleased with the turnout especially with the number of families who supported the club's annual project. "It is our biggest event each year and I'm pleased with the results when you consider the weather was against us for most of the day. However it did clear up late in the af- ternoon and I think everybody had a good time," Meridis said this week when com- menting on the club's annual barbeque.
