The contractor whom the the public works department found to col- lect the extra garbage is behind schedule. He started on the west side of town a week ago Monday. More garbage than ex- pected was put out for col- lection last week in the town. Not all of the material discarded will have to be trucked to a dump north of Toronto. Scavengers have cruised the town's streets looking for salvagable items. They have carried away the items that caught their eye. Correction-- Rourke was the model A photo on page 3 of the July 8 Huronia Weekend incorrectly identified a woman modelling a dress for the Huronia Museum 300 Years of Fashion show. The correct name is Laura Rourke. shortage in part of Port McNicoll one weekend earlier in the month that left a section of the municipality without the ability to combat fire. Reeve John Moreau said it was an "error of judge- ment' that led to almost zero water pressure in a section of town. Apparent- ly the water level was not checked as usual on the weekend. "It should never happen again," he said. The deputy reeve, Ross Cameron, took the matter quite seriously. 'In actual fact, we could not get a drop of water out of a fire hydrant," he said during a council meeting last Wednesday night. "It was a very real thing. We could not fight a fire." The situation was made worse by the fact that a pump broke down, said the clerk, Ted Walker. During the meeting, it was suggested that a new $14,000 pump would make a similar breakdown less likely. With their budget already tight because of waste management costs, some councillors were hesitant to consider that expenditure. But the bylaw officer said: "It's worth $14,000 to save my family's life if there's a fire." Meanwhile, Port coun- cillors wondered how well their municipal water system was holding out during the drought period earlier this summer. The reeve said he checked with his public utilities manager at the height of the drought and was told Port McNicoll was fine. Councillor Reg Quesnelle said that with all the new homes being built in recent years, "We're get- ting in a very dire strait as far as summer or winter." ' Quesnelie -- Matiff Mr. and Mrs. Donald Quesnelle of Port McNicoll are pleased to announce the upcoming marriage of their daughter, Wendy Lee, to Kevin Evan, son of Mr. and Mrs. Howard Matiff of Port McNicoll. The wedding will take place September 10, 1988 at Bonar Presbyterian Church in Port McNicoll. Photo by Rolfoto The University that comes to you.
