Secretary Strutt detailed the correspondence and previous minutes. A letter was sent to the Water Inspector with re- gard to the chlorination of local water and reporting regular testing procedures carried out. P. Frederickson had been advised of his acceptance} | for the position of dog catcher commencing July 15. On enquiry, the Reeve was informed he had been: é very active on the job. An order for fire hose was sent out for the Fire | Department. Reeve Heenan reported to Couricil on the investi- gation carried out of traffic conditions at the inter--- section of Hwy 17 with the Mill road. Council felt this most encouraging as it was the first time any action had been taken by the Department. Many basements h ad been flooded, particularly in the commercial section of town, during the cloud- burst experienced the previous week. Sewage con- ditions were discussed and, despite the backup, Councillor Brown felt under normal rainfall, th e sewers were in good condition and could handle it. Councillor Brown had ordered ten new signs, reading maximum speed limit 25 miles, and discussed other changes in signs around town. A report of drop-offs from road embankments was brought in by Councillor Cavanaugh who owas infor- med trucks would soon be available to bring gravel in for necessary repairs: He further reported on the absence of Constable Milkovich who apologized for his failure to notify the Police Commission . Reeve Heenan had been advised another Unit of 'the Army would stop over in Terrace Bay August 17 and the Police Department and Mill would be duly 'notified. The change in seating capacity in the Recreation Lounge Area had been looked into by Councillor Thompson who. advised the menus were being strictly adhered to, thereby avoiding any problem. Councillor Fraser detailed the Fire Department's report on the serious fire which broke out at 462 Princess Avenue at the height of the storm the week before and which was complicated by the scheduled power shut-off. Situated where it had been hard to detect after lightning had struck, the Fire Dept. had the blaze extinguished quite fast and the house protected in good order.
