HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Lucknow Sentinel, 2014-04-30, Page 4Communities Accept the Invitation It was thrilling to receive so many responses to the invitation for community members to was their news, reports and photos to the Lucknow Sentinel. I have been asked my priorities for inclusion. My vision, and that of Sun Media, is the Luc - know Sentinel is a community newspaper. It will feature news, images and submissions from Lucknow, the Townships of Huron -Kinloss and Ashfield-Colborne-Wawanosh, then broaden out to neighbouring areas, Bruce and Grey Counties and further as it is relevant to our coverage area and as space permits. Here are some guidelines for submissions. Contact infor- mation is appreciated. It is a Sun Media policy that the date appears with photos and print copy. The name and title/ position of the writer and photographer should be clearly stated somewhere to receive credit as the creator, otherwise Val's Views Valerie Gillies it will appear as "submitted': Please keep it brief to avoid having it edited down and possibly los- ing a main point to fit the space. For photos, pro- vide the names of all who appear in order, as well as a brief description of what the picture is about. By law, when taking photos of those deemed as vulnerable populations including minors, seniors and those with developmental challenges, it is important to receive at least ver- bal permission from an adult in a guardianship role for the pictures to appear in print and in the online version of the publication. I will be creating a form with this information to assist Vol- unteer Reporters. It will be available by request at the office and by e-mail at lucknow.editorial@sunmedia.ca. A hearty thank you for rising to the call to make the Luc - know Sentinel by and for the communities and the sur- rounding area it serves. Township of Huron -Kinloss Council Meeting Report Valerie Gillies Lucknow Sentinel Huron -Kinloss Township Council met on April 21, 2014. An exemption to the noise by-law has been passed allowing Music in the Fields to operate for extended hours. The times will be extended from 11:00 p.m. to 2:00 a.m. on both August 23 and 24,2014. The rental fee for the Ripley Community Centre arena floor for the May 10, 2014 Kick - Off Dance was waived by request from the Rip- ley -Huron Reunion Committee. Council voted to support sending the letter prepared by the Multi -Municipal Wind Tur- bine Working Group (MMWTWG) regarding "New research indicates human ear does respond to infrasound from wind turbines." This is the first research that gives support to this concern. The Clerk is authorized to send the letter to the members of the Provincial Cabinet and the local Medical Officer of Health. A resolution was passed that "The Council of the Township of Huron -Kinloss : Requests that the Ontario Ombudsman undertake a broad review of systemic issues related to the current operation of the Renew- able Energy Approval process and, Recommend guidelines and standards for the process going forward to ensure that it operates with an appropriate level of integrity, openness and transparency appropriate for a high profile provincial government initiative." Council requests the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing to reconsider their policy direction regarding development on private roads and un -open road allowances and that policy be developed allowing municipalities more autonomy to regulate their own develop- ment in ways that are appropriate for their spe- cific area.
