(Shawn Loughlin photo) Though he doesn’t officially leave until the first week in December, North Huron’s clerk-administrator Kriss Snell said his goodbyes to council at the Nov. 16 meeting. As this would be his final council meeting, Snell, who is leaving to assume the position of clerk- administrator for North Perth, took the opportunity to thank council and staff. He also acknowledged the media. It has been almost four years since Snell joined the North Huron administration. Councillor Archie MacGowan said council had “enjoyed wonderful” years working with Snell. “We are sorry to see you go.” He credited Snell with having achieved many things for the township. “You brought fresh insights and a great deal of vigour to the job.” Reeve Neil Vincent echoed MacGowan’s words and wished Snell and his family the best for the future. *Fridges and freezers must be at least 15 years old, in working condition and between 10 -27 cubic feet.
