Mr. Webster presently has 215 animal units and plans to expand this to 260 units. He agreed to move his liquid manure tank 200 feet to the north of the proposal in lieu of placing a lid on it. Comments were received from Blyth and the Huron County Health Unit and the Huron County Plann­ ing Dept, made recommendations. The neighbours who attended the meeting were in support of Mr. Webster’s application. Following a discussion, Council- lor Bert Elliott made a motion that they approve the variance on the condition that the number of ani­ mal units not exceed 260, that the manure tank be moved and that completion of the minor variance be done two years after the date of final approval. The reasons for the approval were because no objections raised by neighbours and agencies and to allow the update of a 1947 milking system to meet today’s standards. In regular business it was brought to Council’s attention that Morris Township finished the 1989 year with a surplus of $15,982.

A request was received from the Brussels Agricultural Society ask­ ing for a share of funds to cover the costs of survey for the land located south of the Brussels, Morris and Grey Community Centre, which the Ag. Society proposed to purchase. It was the feeling of Council that they should not be responsible for the costs as they were under the impression that they were only asked to offset the purchase price of the land and the additional costs should be the responsibility of the Ag. Society, since they are the purchasers. A representative from the Mini­ stry of Transport advised Council that East Wawanosh had requested that Morris. Township improve the Johnston Drain located at Lot 1 Cone. 1 to adequately drain the surface water from East Wawanosh at the location. The Ministry wanted to know if this work would proceed prior to the Highway 4 reconstruction. Council decided to advise the Ministry that they will not proceed with the improvements until an official request has been received from East Wawanosh since Morris Council does not feel they have the right to initiate a project to benefit East Wawanosh ratepayers. The road accounts in the amount of $17,310.09 were authorized for payment. The general accounts totalling $51,845.14 were also authorized to be paid.
