Tuckersmith Township
council, at a meeting
Tuesday, appointed clerk
Jack McLachlan and road
superintendent Allen
Nicholson to study the
situation. They will count the
number of vacant lots in the
hamlet to estimate the future
need for a new well, decide
on possible location for the
well and the costs.
The question of water
supply came up when Albert
Price of Egmondville, a
contractor, spoke to council
Tuesday on his proposal to
construct a subdivision on
property he owns. He is
drawing up plans to build six
homes in a cul-de-sac. He
asked council if the township
would consider putting in a
third well which would
supply his subdivision and
any other new homes which
might be built in the coming
years, or if he should dig his
own well.
All members of council
agreed the system was in
need of upgrading as the two
wells presently supplying the
residents have reached
capacity.
At the present time,
residents get their water
from the wells, have their
own private well or, as 17
taxpayers do purchase their
water needs from the Town
of Seaforth.
It was learned that the
present system does not
have a proper shut-off unit in
the event of burst pipes.
Mr. Price was advised to
check with ministry of
transportation and com
munications on the stan
dards for the road needed to
service his lot, Council told
him, too, that snow removal
might be a problem with the
cul-de-sac he is proposing,
Council approved an ap
plication to sever an area of
25 acres of the David Brock
farm to be used as a gravel
pit by Allan and Gerry Reid
of Hensall. In a development
agreement for the property,
council will ask the Reid
brothers to deposit $1,000
before working the pit for the
first two acres and pay $500
for each acre of gravel
removed after that to be put
in a rehabilitation fun to
restore the pit.
When the pit is
rehabilitated on completion
of the removal of the sand,
then the money will be
restored to the property
owners, according to the
provincial Pits and Quarries
Act
Road superintendent
Nicholson told council that
many smaller municipalities
blame the new rehabilitation
regulations in the Pits and
Quarries Act for driving up
the price of gravel.
Ih other business an ap
plication for a building
permit was approved for
Martin Heynsbergen of RR
4, Seaforth for a barn and
Peter Swinkels, RR 4,
Seaforth, for a driving shed.
Approved for payment was
a tile drainage loan for
$5,600.
