St. Amant stressed the inventory is only a proposal and the individual projects must be authorized before any work can begin. "T'd like to see these but it will be strictly a matter of money," said St. Amant. "It may involve fund-raising again." Many of the projects discussed at the meeting were slated to be initiated this year but due to the expenditure of repairing the arena floor, had to be postponed. "We've got lots of plans, but if I get too expensive the mayor will probably oust me and he'll put me on another committee," joked St. Amant. cont'd p. 7 HEAFFER. --_ os na ae, Tiberi pits == ------ =s = >, canes -- = -- > asi on Bae > tienes reg im -- es a = \ = selections from Huronia Office Services Ltd., 259 King St., Midland Town Centre THE FOLLOWING ELMVALE MERCHANTS WILL BE OPEN TILL 9 PM.
