The Citizen, 2016-08-11, Page 17THE CITIZEN, THURSDAY, AUGUST 11, 2016. PAGE 17. North Huron takes on cemetery shed repairs North Huron Township Council is happy the Blyth Legion Branch 420 wishes to contribute to the upkeep of the Blyth Union Cemetery, however, as the site is municipally owned, the municipality can't allow the Legion to undertake repairs on its own. Crystal Taylor, First Vice - President of the Branch, wrote a letter to council stating that the roof of the work shed at Blyth Union Cemetery is in need of repairs and that the Legion has a trust fund set up for the cemetery. According to the Legion's preferred contractor, Dave Werkema from North Huron Construction, the repairs should cost $2,000. Werkema, according to Taylor's letter, stated the frame of the structure is in good condition, however the chimney needs to be replaced and the facia, soffit and trough should be replaced. Council was happy to have the Legion's support, however they were concerned about setting a precedent. Deputy -Reeve James Campbell said agreeing to repairs might be "setting the township up" to agreeing with future requests. Director of Public Services Jeff Molenhuis stated that, as the structure is a memorial asset, a report should be drafted regarding the issue. Chief Administrative Officer Sharon Chambers agreed, and stated that as the property is a municipal one, the proper policy for procurement of a contractor to affect the repairs would need to be followed. "We have to respond to the letter and say we can accept the money as a donation," she said, "however, we have to follow internal policies and procedures for the work" Councillor Brock Vodden agreed, stating the advantage of using such procedures is to "make sure the job is done correctly for permanence." A report will be brought to council on the status of the structure at a future meeting.
