In addition to the $50 paid upon
application for land severance in
Huron County, successful ap
plicants will be paying an ad
ditional $50 administrative fee
when the severance is approved,
beginning January 1, 1978.
“Although this will still not
cover the entire costs involved,”
said chairman Roy Westcott in
his report, “it is a step toward the
principle that the person
benefiting from the severance
pays the cost.”
In speaking to the report,
Elmer Hayter, member of the
committee, said there is just as
much expense connected with
those applications that are not
approved as those applications
that are approved.
“But the difficulty seems to be
to collect the extra ad
ministrative fee,” said Hayter
who pointed out that when a land
severance is denied, the party or
parties applying for the
severance are usually angry and
not too co-operative.
To date there have been 222
applications for severance in
1977. The committee is expecting
a reduction in the number of
severance applications during
1978.
The budget for the land division
committee is up slightly for? 1978,
from $41,200 in 1977 to $42,500 in
1978.
The property committee
reported to county council
Thursday that the director of the
Realty Services Branch, Ministry
of Government Services, has
confirmed that the province
would pay for the replacement of
any contents burned at the
Registry Office should a fire
occur there anytime in the future.
Reeve Ed Oddleifson, Bayfield,
wanted to know how the govern
ment would replace the priceless
documents.
“Do they have copies?” asked
Oddleifson.
Oddleifson pointed out this was
a “very sensitive issue” in the
county.
“If we lose this information,
we’ve in effect wiped out a good
deal of our history,” said the
Bayfield reeve. He suggested the
committee check to see if a
micro-filming program is in
progress or is being considered.

The property committee also
reports the county will receive
from the province $81,098 for rent
of the court house during 1978 and
$15,435 for rent of the registry
office during the same period.
Those rates are up slightly over
1977.
The county will again be
paying $16,000 topward the
operating expenses for the
Goderich Airport council lear
ned.
During the report of the
executive committee, an item for
information of council about Bill
98, an act to revise the Municipal
Elections Act of 1972, brought
much discussion. The greatest
concern was over the com
mencement date for councils -
December 1 following an early
November election.
“Why don’t they leave us
alone?” asked Bob Lyons.
“They’ve got us bad enough
confused now.”
Reeve Bill Elston felt the
December 1 takeover date for a
new council could cause much
disruption since- year-end bills
would have to be paid and a new
council would have little un
derstanding of the municipal
dealings. ........
Council agreed to send a Tetter
to the provincial government
protesting the new election date
as well as the new com
mencement date despite the
suggestions by Bill Hanly, county
administrator, that each
municipality should already have
■ voiced its opinion on the changes
’ in the Election Act long before
this.
“This really doesn’t affect
county council too much,”
‘ warned Hanly.
Council did concur with a
' resolution from Collingwood to
reinstate the death penalty for
capital murder; establish ef
fective control on the purchase
and possession of firearms and
abolish the granting of passes
from prison for convicted
criminals.
A new salary scheule for nurses
in Huron County Health Unit was
approved. Registered nurses and
Public Health Nurses start at
$13,120 each now and go to
maximum of $15,620 for
registered nurses after five years
and $16,020 for public health
nurses after five years. A senior
public health nurse gets an ad
ditional $400 per annum as does a
nurse having a Bachelor of
Science degree.
There was an average wage
increase of 9.05 per cent in 1976
for nurses and an average wage
increase of 7.16 per cent for 1977.
Miss Laurie Ginn has been
hired as a full time public health
nurse, the board of health
reported.
Other staff changes include the
retirement of the county’s chief
custodian, Jim Sheardown after
30 years in the county employ.
