As every Roman knows, a good slave is hard to find and at Ecole Secondaire Penetanguishene Secondary School, Friday, that was just the case. It was initiation day at thegschool and the slaves (Grade 9's) were to do the bidding of their masters (the senior students). Tasks dreamed up by the masters ranged from being a four- legged chariot, left photo, to rolling peanuts down the hallway with their nose. And for those disobedient slaves, it was the pit of a thousand snakes, right photo. Licenses going up The towns of Penetanguishene and Midland are having to make a quick reassessment of their budgets, following a move by the provincial government to make it mandatory for municipally owned vehicles to be licensed under the standard fees of the Highway Traffic Act. That system will be replacing the preferential fees usually paid by municipalities and represents a drastic increase in licensing fees due in March of 1982. In Penetanguishene, there are eight vehicles in the public works department that fall under the new regulations and another two vehicles in the parks depart- ment. Assessment of licensing charges are determined at half the registered gross weight of the vehicle. Under the preferential fee system, a total of $20 would have been paid for the 10 vehicles in Penetanguishene but the new system jumps that total $2,412 for public works and an additional $400 for parks. That total breaks down as $446 for a large GMC truck, $380 for a 4 X 4 vehicle, two other vehicles at $274 each, one vehicle at $320 and two pickup trucks at $60 and $78. Midland officials haven't had a chance to sit down and figure out how much the increase will cost them but it is estimated the total cost will be between $4,000 and $5,000 as compared to the usual $35 range. Percy Ehler, commissioner of Midland Public Works admits, "It's a considerable amount of money. We'll just have to in- clude it in our 1982 budget."' Midland has about 15 units that fall under the new licensing. Exemptions There are some exemptions from the new licensing fees and those are "a commercial motor vehicle having a machine or apparatus mounted upon the chassis thereof that is not designed or used primarily for the transportation of persons No more deals for municipalities or property and only incidentally operated or moved over the highways."' That means vehicles fitting both those conditions would only be charged one-half the amount payable on registered gross weight. Fire department pumper trucks fall into thal category because they are fitted with a pump used for fighting fires but the pump is only useful at the fire. Therefore, il is of no use travelling on the highway. A garbage truck, however, is_ not suitable because it moves property from one point to another but the hydraulic equipment used for loading and unloading is incidental to its primary purpose. Both town councils will be looking at their 1982 budgets to accomodate for such an increase. New licenses must be bought by March of 1982 but both Midland and Penetanguishene have usually done the required licensing in Jan. of the new year. PGH births Mr. and Mrs. Doug Bidan of 50 Peel St., Penetanguishene, _ce- lebrated the arrival of a baby girl, Sept. 22, weighing seven pounds, 10 ounces. Council opens door for new dental lab block larger industries from locating in that Marine accident A Friday night boating mishap in the main channel at Honey Harbour near the east end of Bide-a-Wee Channel is still under investigation this week by members of the Midland detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police. OPP say a 20-foot inboard / outboard being operated by 24-year-old Ralph Douglas Rank of Aurora, Ont., slammed into a small island injuring both Rank and a passenger in his boat John C. Arbuckle, 20, of RR 1, Lefroy, Ont. The boat sustained an estimated $2,200 damage while both men were taken by ambulance to Huronia District Hospital for treatment and later released. The mishap reportedly occurred at 9 p.m. Sept. 23, Mr. and Mrs. Steven Ladouceur of RR 2, Penetanguishene also had a new arrival, a baby boy weighing seven pounds, eight ounces. Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Wagar of 40 Queen St. Elmvale added a baby girl to their family, Sept. 23. The new arrival weighs six pounds, three ounces. Born to Marilyn Banks of 207 Church St., Penetanguishene, Sept. 24, was a baby boy weighing five pounds. 10 ounces. A baby girl was born to Mr. and Mrs. Tim Columbus of 25 Simcoe St., Elmvale, Sept. 25. The new arrival weighs in at five pounds, two . ounces. Don Lawrence The biggest stumbling block has been removed for a proposed dental clinic in Penetanguishene after Penetangiishene town council voted unanimously to allow a rezoning of "land at' 164 Cambridge St., Penetanguishene. There is, at this time, a warehouse at that location which Gunter Stuewe of Rexdale, Ont. wishes to use to relocate his dental laboratory now operating out of Rexdale. Town council voted Monday night to allow a rezoning of the property from Holding to Industrial Services. The rezoning will not affect the residence on the property. Stuewe will be installing a tile bed for sewage purposes which will replace the holding tank now at that location, the changes in the septic system already having been approved by the Simcoe County District Health Unit. Al first, some of the council members were worried about allowing a smaller industry into the area for fear that the M1 zoning would area. , It has been agreed, however, the light in- dustry in the area of the dental laboratory would serve as a transition zone between the residential and heavy industrial areas. The dental laboratory, if built, would be accessible from a Cambridge Street entrance and the existing cement block walls would muffle the minimum amount of noise made by the small grinders used in such a business. The total operation would mean em- ployment for seven people, including Stuewe and his son with the other five positions being filled by local people. When asked about future growth, Stuewe had stated the business could employ as many as 15 people, depending on how his son per- ceived the business and its possibilities. The business is an environmentally safe venture as well, using no acids or chemicals. All wastes would be in a solid form that would be taken away with the ordinary refuse in the area. Whether the laboratory is built in Penetanguishene is now up to Stuewe who must make the final decision. ened Wednesday. September ,30.,.1981, Page 3
