Trespassing charges filed at NH meeting Two individuals have been arrested for trespassing after they refused to follow bylaws set out by North Huron Township Council. On Aug. 22, council's regular meeting started the same way its previous two had, with members of the gallery refusing to put away recording devices, specifically cameras. The individuals had attended meetings in the past and had been escorted out by police for refusing to follow the township's procedural bylaw which prohibits the use of recording devices. At the Aug. 22 meeting, however, the men refused to put away their cameras as was requested by Reeve Neil Vincent. They were informed by a Wingham police officer that by failing to follow the bylaw, they were considered to be trespassing. While all three individuals left, two were arrested under the Trespass to Property Act for engaging in a prohibited activity according to Wingham Police. The individuals were arrested, given offense notices, and immediately released. After the individuals were escorted from the meeting, Vincent explained that council meetings are intended for councillors and staff and that others are invited for transparency's sake. "Unless an individual is a deputation or recognized by the chair, they are not allowed to partake in the discussion of the meeting," he said prior to reconvening the meeting. During two previous council meetings, the same situation had played out with individuals attending with recording devices in contravention of the above bylaw. It was explained that, as the township had found a suitable means to broadcast council meetings, recording devices were no longer allowed in the chambers. The recordings of the meetings are uploaded and made available through YouTube. While police officers have attended previous meetings to deal with the situation, arrests have not been made until this most recent event.
