Hamiota's Handy Transit Committee met January 14 1988 in the village council chambers. Lorne Dale chaired with Ernie Buhler Vaughn Wilson Ethel Robertson Ken Briggs Lionel Brown and George Vincent in attendance. A $1.00 special rate for a return in town trip was set for Handy Van use by the Card Club of Hamiota. A plan to send Dale and Vincent to a Portage operators course on January 25 1988 was approved. Citizens may use the Handy Van on Wednesdays at the $1.00 in town return rate. The windshield was replaced for 300.00 deductible. An engraved plaque will honor Donald Martin for two years of volunteer driving. The unaudited 1987 year end finances show a substantial loss but depreciation helps reach break even. Audits are to be included in the municipal audit to reduce costs. The 1988 fee schedule remains: one way in town 1.00 return 2.00 district pickups 0.17 km out of district 1.00 plus 0.62 per km mobility other trips 0.22 per km with user supplied driver.
