North Huron councillors were
upset to learn that the Aboutown
Northline 1 (NL-1) bus has ceased
operation.
The bus, which travelled from
Owen Sound to London stopping in
local areas like Blyth,
Londesborough, Wingham and
Auburn, provided one of the few
transport options through the area.
At Council’s Nov. 18 meetingDeputy-Reeve David Riach stated hewould like to forward the
information to Huron County
Council as it affects North Huron
communities as well as other
communities in the county. He also
suggested discussing the issue with
the South Western Economic
Alliance (SWEA).
***
North Huron Council learned that
the Blyth post office will see a
reduction in hours. Councillor James Campbell statedthat this was another sign that the
post offices are facing closure, an
issue that council has talked about
for some time.
Councillor Brock Vodden,
however, saw it is a possible boon in
the fight to keep local post offices,
stating that the Blyth post office
being closed on Saturdays may bring
down its costs and thus make it less
of a candidate for closures.
***Councillor Brock Vodden reportedthat the Blyth Arena Advisory Board
is considering installing free
wireless internet at the Blyth
Campground for users of the service.
Councillor Archie MacGowan
questioned whether a cost should be
associated, but Vodden explained
that the group is looking at it as a
service to better accommodate
people at the campground.
He did say, however, that the funds
from such an endeavour could beused to fix the damage caused by“donut-makers” and their ATVs.
Vodden reported that the Leaf
account, which consists of donations
made to the Blyth and District
Community Centre, has a
“considerable amount of money,” in
it and that the committee would look
at using it to fund cameras, to stop
the destruction of property, and the
infrastructure for the wireless
internet.
