Mrs. Winnie Dignan returned Delegates to the annual fall conference of district 7 of the Ontario Municipal Electrical Association at the Exeter Legion Hall, Wednesday heard that the impending regional government system is not expected to have any immediate effect on local Public Utilities Commissions. R.J. Boyer, vice-chairman of the Hydro Electric Power Commission said, "In specific proposals for regional governments made thus far, municipal hydro utilities have been left out. In fact, Mr. McKeough the Minister responsible for implementing regional government policy has stated the government is not yet prepared to make any recommendations as to the form Hydro should take." Continuing Mr. Boyer said, "in regional government review for the Muskoka district, for example, it was recommended that existing PUC's be continued until the most desirable future arrangement for the services they now perform has been determined through discussions between PUC's Ontario Hydro and the proposed Regional Council." Following are further comments made by Mr. Boyer during his Exeter address: The OMEA has already been invited by the government to study electrical distribution under a regional administration. At its annual meeting earlier this year the association announced that, in concert with the local utility commissions in affected areas, it would work to reach an accord with Ontario Hydro so to London after spending the past three weeks with her sister, Miss Bernie Madden. USA family visits at Thames Road By MRS. WILLIAM ROHDE Seventeen ladies of the UCW were guests of Cromarty ladies last Tuesday evening. Miss Kathy Ferguson of Hensall spent the weekend with Miss Darlene Passmore. Mr. & Mrs. Oren Grace, Gerald and Ross of Gibraltar, Michigan, spent the weekend with Mrs. Myrtle Passmore and family, Saturday, Mr. & Mrs. Grace and Mrs. Passmore were guests at the Jones-Hodgins wedding in Lucan. Scot Morgan spent Sunday With Calvin Rohde. Mr. & Mrs. Edwin Miller, Barry and Barbara spent Sunday at Kingsville. Quite a number from this community attended anniversary service at Elimville United Church, Sunday. that the OMEA could' recommend to the Minister of Municipal Affairs what it considers to be a workable plan for the distribution* of electric service within a regional form of government. . On it part, Ontario Hydro has established a task group to undertake a comprehensive study of all aspects of the distribution of electricity in the province. For the past several months this group has been engaged in detailed study of government proposals for regional government with the purpose of determining how the utilities and Ontario Hydro might best fit into the plans. Of vital interest on the local basis is the possible re-location of staff in larger organizational units. What provisions will be made to preserve seniority, status, and other job considerations? By excluding Hydro from regional government proposals to this point, the government has made it quite clear that it recognizes that answers are needed to these and other questions before any definitive policy can be formulated. It has also made it clear that it looks to people actively involved with the present Hydro system to provide the answers. A similar pattern was evident in legislation creating the new. Niagara Regional Government in the Lincoln-Welland area. This legislation — which will come into effect January 1, 1970 — calls for PUC's to continue in the same form through 1970. All commissioners and ex-officio members of commissions will continue to hold office until January 1, 1971. In other words, no substantive change is contemplated for Hydro, at least for an interim period while the best arrangement for the region is being determined. This does not mean, of course, that municipal utilities will be totally excluded from the regional government program. It is inevitable that we will see some changes in the municipal distribution system. It does mean, however, that the government recognizes the special characteristics of the municipal utility enterprise and is prepared to deal with it apart from other boards and commissions. H.F.uring the morning session, . Baldwin president of the OMEA made long service award presentations of 15 years each to R.E. Pooley-of Exeter and M.M. Pennington of Parkhill.
