God called your name so gently, That only you could hear, No one heard the footsteps, Of the angel drawing near.

TRY CLASSIFIED Food Charter to be launched at special event in Clinton Continued from page 15 often the first step in planning for change as it visualizes what a positive food future could look like. It outlines the goals and objectives of the community and becomes a tool to affect and inform policy. The Huron County’s Food Charter development process, a year in length, involved engaging community members and seeking their input into what values were important when considering food in Huron County. The resulting feedback was gathered and a draft charter was produced. The draft charter was then brought back to the community for refinement and approval. The final Huron County Food Charter will be launched and meeting attendees will be asked to sign on or endorse the vision to help make it a reality in Huron County. The meeting is open to the public and anyone who has an interest in the vision, mission and strategic direction of the HFAN may join as a member, participate in a working group or receive HFAN mailings. For more information on the initiative or any further events, contact HFAN Vice President Joan Brady at 519- 237-3108 or by e-mail at jbrady@hay.net County to withdraw $350,000 from fund, discussed at session Continued from page 11 guarantees expire. • Rising group benefit costs are not an insurance problem to which there is an insurance solution. • Rising group benefits costs are a Human Resources Management problem to which there is a Human Resources best practices management solution – a 20-year and proven track record for success model. Group benefit costs accounted for 10 per cent of the county’s payroll in 2009 – the year before DMASL was brought on – and was projected to rise to between 22 and 25 per cent by 2019. Due to the changes implemented, however, by the end of the year, group benefit costs are projected to be around eight per cent of the county payroll. Huron East Mayor Bernie MacLellan, in an effort to “compare apples to apples” asked what the projections, under the new model, are for 2019. Donnelly said that while he didn’t have those exact figures in front of him, the estimation is that benefits costs will be between six and eight per cent of the county’s payroll in 2019. Donnelly then told council that approximately $350,000 of the $570,000 in the county’s account could now be drawn down and brought into the county’s general accounts to be used as councillors see fit. Ashfield-Colborne-Wawanosh Reeve Ben Van Diepenbeek asked why the entire amount could not be withdrawn, to which Donnelly responded by saying that the county could theoretically do that, but it would be unwise. Donnelly explained that some money should always be in the account, as a bit of a “float”. Chief Administrative Officer Brenda Orchard called the surplus a good news story, saying that the newly-found $350,000 will be discussed at the county’s upcoming strategic planning session next month. Donnelly agreed, saying that the money is now back in the hands of the county, where it can be put to use, rather than in the bottom line of a big insurance company.
