Central Huron covers ACW fires Central Huron Council passed a bylaw at its May 10 meeting that would enter the municipality into an automatic aid agreement with Ashfield-Colborne-Wawanosh (ACW). Central Huron operates fire protection services and manages assets suitable to meet municipal responsibilities as required by the Fire Protection and Prevention Act, through a fire department located in Central Huron. Central Huron is prepared to make available its fire protection services to ACW, which is agreeable and requests Central Huron to provide fire protection to a defined area. The area is bounded by the Maitland River on the west, the centre line of Donnybrook Line on the east, the boundary of Central Huron on the south and on a line extending along the northern limit of Lot 27, Concession 1 and including Plan 291 and 293 of the former Township of West Wawanosh from the Maitland River to Donnybrook Line on the north. Council also approved its clean yard bylaw. Under the general standards of the bylaw, every owner shall ensure that his or her land is kept clear of any weeds or grass that is more than 20 centimetres in height, hay, wheat and the such but not limited to refuse garbage, rubbish, salvage or other debris; ice box, refrigerator or freezer that is not located within a building; wrecked, dismantled, abandoned or inoperable appliance, machinery, shopping carts, vehicles or trailers, or any portion thereof; motor vehicle or trailer that does not display a valid licence plate and corresponding current validation sticker; hedge, tree or branch located on private property that is likely to hinder pedestrian traffic on a public sidewalk and canine excrement. Every owner of land shall ensure that all steps, pedestrian walkways, driveways, parking spaces or similar areas on their land must be maintained so that to afford clear, unobstructed and safe passage by pedestrians and vehicles and any naturalized area on their land must not encroach above or onto and adjacent property. Central Huron also supported a resolution from the city of Ottawa asking the province to establish a task force regarding tax ratios. By Jim Brown The Citizen
