Brussels village councillors have got themselves in the middle of a neighbourhood squabble that they would just as soon have not been involved in. When a complaint was levelled against a dog owned by George Jutzi, Mr. Jutzi was asked to come tothelastmeeting of council to discuss the situation. He took the opportunity to argue that a fence on the property of Councillor Gordon Workman was on the road allow­ ance and prevented him from being able to get rid of snow from his property. As a result of this complaint, Councillor Malcolm Jacobs was sent to investigate the positioning of the fence and said from the best of his ability to measure, without having a complete survey done, the offending fence was about 4.5 feet on the road allowance. However, he said, using the same measur­ ing, if the fence was in the street allowance then a fuel pump and tanks on Mr. Jutzi’s property were also on the road allowance. Councillor Workman, angered because he had been under the rules of conflict of interest and unable to defend himself at the earlier meeting said he was not sure the stake used in the measurements was even in the right place.
