The Citizen, 2015-05-07, Page 28Continued from page 25 inform the Health Unit of any immunizations. Healthcare pro- viders do not automatically share that information with the Health Unit. “Immunizations are a key part of public health,” says Taylor. “Ensuring students are immunized keeps our schools and communities safe and healthy.” The Health Unit annually reviews immunization records for students attending school. Under the Immunization of School Pupils Act (ISPA) Ontario students are required to be vaccinated against several infectious diseases in order to attend school. Ontario students must be vaccinated against diphtheria, tetanus, polio, measles, mumps and rubella. Last year vaccines for meningitis and pertussis (whooping cough) were added to the list, as well as varicella (chickenpox) vaccine for students born in 2010 or later. Parents can contact the Huron County Health Unit at 519-482- 3416 or 1-877-837-6143 ext. 2025, or at immunize@huron county.ca Continued from page 24 supporting the continuance of the business. Mayor Jim Ginn, however, attempted to keep councillors on topic, saying that while it is tempting to discuss the future of the business existing in the municipality forever, a one-year temporary bylaw is what was before council that night, and a decision on that allowance is what needed to be made – not a debate on the future of the business. Ginn said he felt that the extension should be granted. To close the business without giving Pate and Oke the opportunity to further explore a potential agreement with the Planning Department or their neighbours would be a rash move, he said. “We always talk about economic development – at some point you have to put your money where your mouth is,” Ginn said. Pate, Oke and Pate’s parents (the owners of the property) will now have one year to craft an agreement with the Huron County Planning Department and various neighbouring farms that all parties hope will leave everyone happy, able to co-exist and expand.

Email submissions to: reporter@northhuron.on.ca The Citizen What a gorgeous day for all who ventured out onto the streets of Auburn this past Saturday morning for the annual village-wide yard sale. I began the morning with a great Lions Club breakfast at the community hall. Pancakes piled high with real maple syrup, eggs, sausage and toast, all for $7. You can’t beat that. The only thing better was being able to visit with the people who filled the hall to eat breakfast with me. When I finished there I hit the streets going from yard to yard looking for deals. I wasn’t alone. There were many people out deal hunting with me, some were walking and others were driving. Once I think I even saw what looked like traffic congestion right here in Auburn. Who would have thought? With the yard sale behind us, we are looking forward to another rite of passage for springtime, the Auburn Horticultural Society’s annual plant auction sale. This year it is being held at 7 p.m. on Monday, May 11 at the Auburn Community Hall. Horticultural Society president Karen Redmond says they are now accepting donations of garden accessories such as, garden hooks, decorative stones, birdhouses, etc. Donations may be dropped off any time after 12 p.m. on the day of the sale at the Auburn Hall. Cash only will be accepted and there will be door prizes and a light snack. If you have any questions you may contact Karen at 519-526-7633.
