R.R. :.1.-WALtant, ONTARIO M4RCH, 1978 GOb SAVE THE QUEEN MRS: JANE BADLEY RETURNING OFFICER 16— THE BRUSSELS POST, MARCH 8, 1978 MVCA budgig. up ..20% for 78 Members of the Maitland Valley Coniervation Authdrity meeting in Wroxeter gave their approval, without discussion or opposition, to a proposed three quarter million dollar budget for the authority in 1978. The budge, at $765,818, is 20 per cent higher than last year's budget of $640,200, but the portion to be raised by general levy is up only about six per cent. Approximately half the increasers accounted for by a -higher budget figure for down- stream improvements to the Listowel conduit. The authority has set aside $263,618 for the job this year, with approximately $50,000 of the total to come from Listowel,as special benefit ing municipaty. Last year $200,000 was budgeted for that project but most oftheninney reverted to the government when the work was postponed. Other areas which have gone up include administration, up $8,000 to $116,000; general maintenance, upfo $65,000 from $50,000 to more accurately reflect last year's actual expenditures of $64,668; and water and related land management, up almost $30,000 to about $247,000.,:, Of the total budget.$110,395 is to be raised by a general levy on municipalities in the water, shed; that is upfrom $104,150 last year. A further $74,524 is to come from special levies assessed against municipalities benefit ing from particular projects; $40,000 from gate receipts at the Falls Reserve conservation, area; $5,000 from sundry revenues and the remainder, some $536,000, from provincial government grants. Conduit in Doubt Although planned repairs to the ddwnstream section of the Listowei conduit make up more. than one third of the budget, there is still some doubt the work will go ahead this year. Doug Trench, the new repre- sentative from- Listowel on the authority taking the place of Vince Judge, who resigned, said the town is not sure it will be able to afford its share of the job since it might be_ facing a hefty bill for bridge replacement. The MTC conducted a study on the bridges in Listowel last year and , while the town hasn't received the report from that study yet it is.bracing itself for the worst, he said. "If the bridges are turned down it's a whole new ballgame," he told the other members. "If both bridges must be replaced Listowel might " not be able to afford anything else." He pointed out that the portion of the conduit in the town is "mostly bridge". The bridges were built in 1912 when "I don't know if Ford even had a one ton truck", he said. "Now we have 80 ton trucks with air brakes." The conservation authority also plans to approach the ministry of natural resources this year for money to complete a detailed engineering study on the down- town section of the conduit'. This would consist of preparing tender documents for the next phase of construction, the conduit ' itself, but 'doesn't mean construction would start next year, MVCA Resources Manager Ian Deslauriers told the meeting. Since the Listowel conduit is considered a special project much of the money budgeted for it would again revert to the province if the job does not go ahead this year and could not be used for other projects, R. D. Hunter, a representative from the regional conservation authorities branch in London told the members. Mr. Deslauriers said yesterday as far as the authority is concerned work on. the down- stream improvements will start this year. All necessary approvals, including that of Listowel, have been given and unless the reports on the bridges are very bad there should be no holdup, he said. Gorrie Dam Another project the authority had hoped to get underway this year, the replacement of the washed-out Gorrie Dam, appears to be back on the shelf for lack of ministry funding. At its general meeting in December the authority singled out the dam as a priority project but last Friday afternoon Chairman Lorne Murray told Howick Reeve Harold Robinson: "We spent all morning talking on the Gorrie Dam but I've nothing concrete to-tell you yet." The budget for this year contains only $3,000 for detailed design work on the dam. Authority members approved raising the. $200,000 spending limit on another major project,. the acquisition of land in the Turnberry Mr, Deslauriers explained the MVCA is approaching the $200,000 limit already and a bad flood this year could put it over. He said the assessed value of the remaining "priority one" properties, those which are liable to the worst flooding, is around $85-$86,000, with the cost of demolition and landscaping pushing the total still to be spent to about $130,000. Turnberry Township must give its approval to any new spending inthe floodplain and the revised limit will be set in consultation with that council, Mr. Deslauriers added. The authority is also working toward a water basin study on the watershed, of the Nine Mile River around Lucknow, he said. It plans to approach the natural resources ministry for cooperation in an inter-ministerial study. Conservation authorities try to get the ministry involved in studies on large water basins, he explained later, "because they have the staff". Fill Line Mapping Following some heated discussion the members gaVe 'their approval to a motion that completed fill line mapping be registered with the province. The mapping, which warns of development hazards in rural areas, must be approved by the IN THE MUNICIPALITY OF: affected municipal council and the local MPP before it can be registered. ' Mr. Deslauriers, described the mapping as basically permissive rather than restrictive. It is intended to encourage safe development, not to stop develop- ment he said. He told the ,members less than 10 per cent of applications for building permits would fall into areas designated as potentially hazardous on the maps and that of these probably nine out of 10 could be approved anyway. ' The maps warn of floodplain and unstable soils to protect present and future property owners from unsafe development, he said, and the authority can, once a map is registered, prevent building in a location it can prove is likely to be unsafe. Some municipal councillors on the authority were unhappy with the idea, suggesting it restricts the ability of the township councils to make their own decisions. Mr. Deslauriers said seven councils have already accepted the fill line mapping and "we're working on an eighth", but he noted no Perth County minicipali- ties have 'yet accepted it. They have been cautioned' by their county planner it takes away local autonomy, he said. Lorne Murray of Maryborough • Township was again acclaimed 'to the position of chairman of the authority for 1978. The vice chairman's spot, vacated by the ,resignation' of Mr. Judge, was filled by Dave Gower of Goderich who also ran unopposed. Mr. Gower wd's formerly chairman the water management advisory board. Bill Crump of Lucknow was elected as the new chairman of that board in a close race with Jack Alexander of Wingham. The vote was tied after the first ballot forcing Mr. Murray to break the tie. He gave the , nod to Mr. Crump, explaining Mr. Alexander had formerly chaired that advisory board and the authority prefers to have members move around 'onto different boards. Ross Taylor of East Wawanosh . was elected chairman of the reforestation, land use and wild- life advisory board over George Bridge of Palmerston. Mr. Robinson of Howick Township was 'elected over Russell Kernighan of Colborne Township and Mr. Alexander to finish Allan Ross' uncompleted term as chairman of the. conser- vation areas advisory board. Garnet W:r.ight- of Goderich Township is in the second year of, his term as chairman of 'the information and 'education advisory board. Last Call For J.E.T.
