Wet weather
causes mud
Wet weather is causing
problems for residents of Huron
St. East during the construction
of sanitary sewers.
The street has been turned into
a quagmire at times and one bill
was received this week from a
resident who required a tow truck
to get him out of the mud.
The bill will be turned over to
the contractor.
Noting there appeared to be
more complaints than usual,
Councillor Ted Wright asked if
the contractor was making a
reasonable attempt to co-operate
with people.
"What can they do in wet
weather?" asked Councillor Bob
Simpson.
"They're trying to co-operate,"
works superintendent Glenn
Hells stated,
Deputy-Reeve Tom MacMillan
noted that "as usual" the town
was experiencing unusually wet
weather during a construction
project.
At the end of the meeting, Kells
presented several situations that
had arisen regarding the sewer
work and several of these were
turned over to the drains and
roads committee for action or
recommendations,
It was decided that where home
owners request two laterals, that
the one be charged at the $135
rate and the other at the full cost
incurred by the town.
In another situation where one
person owns three homes, one of
them on a rear lot, it was decided
that a connection would be
required for each h'orne.
