At its July 2 council meeting, council brought forth a motion that will see a letter drafted and sent to Linda Jeffrey, the Minister of Municipal Affairs, as well as to the portfolio critics for the opposition parties, that states Central Huron wants to maintain its currentconfiguration, which includes theformer townships of Goderich and Hullett, along with the former town of Clinton. Specifically the wording states: “Council confirms that it is in favour of maintaining the Municipality of Central Huron in its current status.” The move comes on the heels of a recent grassroots campaign, led by Councillor Brian Barnim, whichseeks the de-amalgamation ofGoderich Township from the Municipality of Central Huron for reasons that include tax bills. During a recorded vote, requested by Mayor Jim Ginn, council voted unanimously in favour of the resolution to maintain the status quo, though Councillor Brian Barnim refrained from voting as he had earlier declared a conflict of intereston the issue as he is seeking the de-amalgamation through a legal process involving a private bill. At meeting’s end, the mayor told The Citizen the motion was crafted in response to Barnim’s de- amalgamation campaign, which includes a petition and an online blog. Asked whether Councillor Barnim’s project could lead to a code of conduct complaint, Ginn replied: “Ithink we need to seek legal advice on that.” Business Directory Affordable CAR AND TRUCK RENTALS Large & Small Trucks fridge carts - piano dollys- moving blankets Complete Selection of Cars Our rates qualify for insurance replacement Passenger Vans full size or mini GODERICH TOYOTA 344 Huron Rd. 519-524-9381 GODERICH 1-800-338-1134 NEW CONSTRUCTION AGRICULTURAL RENOVATIONS RESIDENTIAL Call 519-527-1538 Tarion Home Warranty Builders THE ZAHND TEAM P.O.
