Brussels man fined for ATV possession Brandon Stone of Brussels pled guilty to two charges stemming from May of 2012 when he was found to be in the possession of a stolen all-terrain vehicle (ATV). Stone was charged with possession of stolen property and breach of probation. He pled guilty to both charges. Crown Attorney Laura Grant said that on May 29 Stone approached a man operating an ATV in Huron East and asked if he could take the machine for a ride. His request, however, was turned down. The next day, however, the man in possession of the ATV came to Stone’s house and told him he could take it for a ride. The man taught Stone how to start the ATV without a key and then Stone took the ATV for a ride. Judge R.G.E. Hunter asked Stone if he just didn’t plan on returning the ATV and Stone said yes. Later that day Huron OPP attended Stone’s home on an unrelated matter and found him to be in possession of the ATV. After further investigation, police found that the ATV was stolen. With the charge, Stone was also found to be in violation of a probation order that had been made in Stratford youth court. Hunter found Stone guilty and Grant made a joint submission for a $500 fine and a 12-month probation period. Duty Counsel John O’Donnell said Stone is 19 years old, maintains his own residence and has a full- time job and he felt the joint submission was an appropriate one. Hunter ordered Stone to pay a $400 fine on the possession of stolen property charge and $100 on the breach of probation charge and gave him a 12-month period of probation. Stone has six months to pay the fine. Christine O’Reilly was at the Central Huron Council meeting on Nov. 5 giving councillors an introductory course on the sport of equestrian drill. While the sport is relatively new, O’Reilly said, it is growing in popularity and the Regional Equine and Agricultural Centre of Huron (REACH) is a perfect venue to host a premier competition event. O’Reilly said the sport of equestrian drill is essentially what has been popularized by the RCMP Musical Ride show, which is horses moving gracefully and synchronized to music. While the majority of the events will be able to be held in REACH’s traditional facilities, O’Reilly said for the parade competition, it would be an honour to have an actual parade down Clinton’s main street that will be judged and the winners will then be awarded. This would be the first show of its kind in Ontario, O’Reilly said, and it would bring a really family-friendly event to Central Huron as a real economic driver of a weekend. The event would be a full day, she said, on Aug. 17, 2013 and the parade would take place mid- morning. She said the parade would likely last between 20 and 30 minutes as it would be at a walking pace. “There would be opportunities for sponsorships from local businesses,” O’Reilly said, “and it will stimulate the local economy.” O’Reilly said that participants will be coming from across the province and they will need a place to stay, a place to eat and places to shop. “This is a great marketing opportunity for local businesses,” she said. She also said it would generate interest in REACH. Councillor Burk Metzger said he hoped the event would become an annual one and asked why it was only province-wide when a greater number of riders would be attracted if perhaps it was a national event. O’Reilly said it was for insurance reasons and that every member of the Ontario Equestrian Association is covered under its provincial insurance and the same couldn’t be said for riders from other provinces. O’Reilly said that at the time of the presentation she had heard from six groups who were interested in the event, which she felt was a good start for an event in its first year. A motion to approve the parade was then carried by council. Continued from page 12 Brussels area. Our sympathies to all.

The other method of sharing the costs would be to divide the costs by the number of risk management plans what will be needed. Currently there are 572 identified risks across the area and 57 of those are in Morris-Turnberry. Under that method of calculation, Morris- Turnberry’s cost would be $20,000. As the process moves forward and more information is uncovered, some of the properties identified as posing a risk to the water system will likely be eliminated, she said. Allain said that presentations were being made to the nine councils during November and she had no indication yet which would be interested in delegating enforcement to ABCA. In North Perth, for instance, there was a much higher proportion of municipal water users to properties identified as posing a risk, so the municipality might not favour dividing costs based on the number of water connections. Mayor Paul Gowing liked the idea of the municipality purchasing the service from the conservation authority. “MVCA and ABCA have handled all this stuff [source water protection] at length,” he said. “Why reinvent the wheel. It seems to fall in place in my mind that they be left to do the enforcement.” Allain pointed out that with 57 identified threats, Morris-Turnberry might have too much work for existing staff to take on the job, but not enough to justify hiring an employee. But Councillor John Smuck said the difference between Morris- Turnberry’s two possible costs, $1,673 at the low end versus $20,000 at the high end, made it impossible for him to make any sort of commitment at this point. In the end council voted to receive the information and keep discussions open with ABCA as most information comes from other municipalities. Hungry?
