Central Huron Council wants to
keep it together.
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.”
