Christmas Lamb & Goat Sale
Following the suggestion of a
ratepayer, Morris-Turnberry council
has adopted a resolution asking the
province to offer a rebate for people
turning in their old tires.
The issue had arisen following
the appearance at the Oct. 2 meeting
of a delegation from the northern
part of Turnberry ward, complaining
about tires being thrown along a
quiet roadside in their area.
Brent Bowyer, a spokesperson
for the group, proposed the idea of a
deposit charge on tires that you
would pay when you bought them,
then get off when you brought them
back to get new tires.
Councillors liked the idea
and promised to create a resolu-
tion.
At their Nov. 6 meeting,
councillors approved the resolution
that calls on the provincial
government to develop a program to
provide a rebate for tire disposal,
either through a new program or
enhancement of the Stewardship
Ontario program.
The resolution will be sent to the
premier and minister of environment
and circulated to other
municipalities through the
Association of Municipalities of
Ontario.
