Council voted to ask engineer R.J. Burnside to send the report to the Ministry of Environment for approval at its Dec. 3 session after holding a closed-to-the-public session with its lawyer, Greg Stewart. During the public question period, The Citizen was told the document relating to the landfill is not available to the public. *** Ten members of the Walkerburn Club want council to know they are not impressed by a recent decision by a local bus company to cut back on bus services between Owen Sound and London. Councillor Marg Anderson suggested sending a letter of support for the club, which submitted a petition to council. *** Central Huron Council is again moving its meeting times. Council will begin scheduling both its council and committee-of- the-whole meetings on Mondays rather than the Tuesday schedule that was used this past year. Sound study could be coming Despite early opposition, Huron East Council is asking for several proposals for a study to measure baseline sound in the municipality in relation to wind turbines. The concept of a baseline sound study, which had been originally proposed by council years ago, has recently been resurrected by Huron East Against Turbines (HEAT) member and Councillor Allison Dekroon. Councillors had initially rejected the idea as wind turbine companies, as part of the Renewable Energy Approval (REA) process, are required to provide baseline studies of their own, both with the turbines operating and with them dormant. Dekroon, however, has maintained that it would be beneficial for Huron East to have its own study. She told councillors it would be “useful” to have the study for the municipality’s records. Mayor Bernie MacLellan, however, said the reason council has stayed out of turbine studies is there are many peer-reviewed studies on both sides of the argument. “Whether you’re for or against [wind turbines],” MacLellan said, “you can find a peer-reviewed study that speaks to your opinion.” MacLellan said because of the multitude of opinions right now, council has no choice but to simply follow the rules and not take a side. And the rules state, he said, that a baseline sound study must be completed by the wind turbine company as part of the REA process according to the provincial government. Councillor Larry McGrath, however, while acknowledging that there are peer-reviewed wind turbine studies to meet every need and opinion, said he’s concerned with what he perceived as the provincial government and its acceptance of peer-reviewed studies for turbines and its rejection of peer-reviewed studies against them. Dekroon also voiced her concerns, saying REA sound studies have to be completed within 12 months of turbine construction, saying that residents could live with wind turbines for up to a year before a sound study has to be completed. Councillor Nathan Marshall said the sound study being submitted to the province as part of the REA would be the document of record, so it didn’t make sense for Huron East to do its own study. “The document is from the province; they’re the one making the rules,” Marshall said. McGrath said he felt the studies should be done sooner and that council should request that they be done within a month of turbine construction. “That’s not an irrational request,” he said. There was some discussion about the potential cost of the study, with some councillors saying it could cost as much as $200,000 or $300,000, but HEAT members from the audience shouted at councillors, saying the study would cost just a few thousands dollars. If money for the study was going to be a concern, Dekroon said, any money gained from the proposed community vibrancy fund could be used to pay for the study. If that wasn’t plausible for council, she said, council could always try to recover costs of the study from the wind turbine company under the municipality’s proposed cost recovery bylaw. MacLellan said that no decisions had been made on what to do with money from the yet-to-be-finalized vibrancy fund, which would be money from a turbine company to the municipality based on the energy produced. However, he said, as a business owner, if a municipality asked him to pay for an independent sound study just before he had to pay for a government-mandated sound study, he wouldn’t agree to it. “I’d have a hard time paying for both of them,” MacLellan said. McGrath, however, didn’t seem too concerned about the redundancy. “So we’re doubling up. We do it all the time, this is nothing new,” he told council. Deputy-Mayor Joe Steffler was concerned about the costs associated with a study and how they had yet to be been finalized. “I would want to know the costs,” Steffler said. “If this is going in the 2014 budget, you know where we are in the 2014 budget and it’s not pretty. You add another $100,000, $200,000, it’s going to be a lot less pretty.” Council then approved a motion requesting more than one cost estimate for a sound study. The motion asked that proposals be returned to council within 30 days of the motion’s passing (Dec. 3).
