Continued from page 1
but wanted it to go even further, he
said, in the wake of rising policing
costs dictated by the Ontario
Provincial Police.
“It doesn’t hurt to look,” he said,
“but why stop at one? I think we
should look at policing because if
we keep going at the same rate, we
won’t be able to afford it.”
Shewfelt said there are county
models for policing for Huron to
look to.
“I don’t think looking just at fire
cuts it,” Shewfelt said. “We have to
look at it like eating the elephant,
one little bite at a time.”
Bluewater’s Bill Dowson said the
only fair way to evaluate fire costs is
to determine how much fire
coverage costs per $1,000 of
assessment throughout the county.
“I think ours is reasonable,”
Dowson said of Bluewater, “but we
need those numbers.”
North Huron Reeve Neil Vincent,
however, defended his fire service,
saying that he and his staff have
spent hundreds of hours working on
a fully compliant fire service to
protect the people of North Huron
and that he stands by it.
Vincent said in North Huron staff
went to great lengths to make their
fire service compliant, but that he
wouldn’t comment on other fire
services throughout the county
because he doesn’t know enough
about them.
Warden Bernie MacLellan cut
Vincent off, however, saying that he
was getting off-topic and that the
discussion should surround
investigating a possible county-wide
fire service, not the compliance of
fire services throughout the county.
Councillor Paul Klopp said he was
in favour of hearing more
information, but had a feeling that
would be about as far as it would go.
“I have a feeling this is going to
cost too much, but I’m open-
minded,” Klopp said.
Shewfelt, however, warned
councillors against scaring away the
volunteers who protect Huron
County residents by getting too
greedy.
“We receive great protection and
we get it from volunteers,’ Shewfelt
said. “I think if this goes forward,
you better involve them and we
should be thankful for all we
get.”
At its April 3 meeting, Morris-
Turnberry Council voted to ask for
more information about the site
selection process for Canada’s Deep
Geological Repository for Used
Nuclear Fuel.
Mayor Paul Gowing noted
selection of a site is a long process.
“Down the road, even if we decide
we aren’t interested, maybe our
neighbours might be involved. I’m
whole-heatedly in favour of learning
more. Nothing is going to happen
without great consultation.”
