Morris Council sets date for first installment
A meeting of Morris Township
Council will be held on May 10 to
review the mill rates for the
township and the mill rate by-law.
Council reviewed the mill rates on
file at its meeting on May 1, but
were unable to process the final
mill rate or budget as the Huron
County Board of Education budget
has not been finalized.
Council did set the first instal
ment date as June 22.
Council discussed the Ministry of
Energy Grant for the Belgrave W.I.
Hall and instructed Clerk Nancy
Michie to notify the Belgrave
Women’s Institute to get estimates
for the furnace approved by the
grant.
It was decided that the two free
tickets for the Politicians’ Night at
Blyth Festival on June 19, will be
used and 10 additional tickets will
be purchased at a charge of $8
each.
Since that is a regular council
night they have rescheduled the
meeting to Monday, June 18.
Road Superintendent Lloyd
Michie was present to discuss
several items with Council.
He informed Council of a request
from Gary Carswell for additional
Higgins-bottom catch basins be
installed at Mr. Carswell’s lot in
Bluevale to drain his surface water.
Council decided that if Mr. Cars
well needs additional drains he will
have to install them at his own
expense.
Mr. Michie also informed Coun
cil that Mr. Henry Rouw of Lot 6,
Cone. 8 has requested that the
roadside be seeded and re habili
tated and the CSP that crossed the
concession road at that location be
repaired.
Council inspected the site and
advised that the roadside is not
washing at this time and they feel it
may cause eroding problems if
work is done there, therefore the
site will remain as is.
Crushed gravel spreading by
George Radford Construction will
begin on May 7.
The letter from Wingham Golf
and Curling Club concerning the
placing of guard rails at their
entrance was also discussed by
Council.
After looking into the matter
with the insurance company and
checking the area, they agreed to
advise the Wingham Golf and
Curling Club that the township
would not install guard rails,
however, they would install a sign
of warning near the entrance way.
A motion was passed for Mrs.
Michie to send letters to Mr. Rouw,
Mr. Carswell and the Wingham
Golf and Curling Club advising
them of Council’s position.
Council then reviewed tenders
for a cab and chassis for a new
dump truck and instructed Mr.
Michie to finalize the tender as set
out and invite tenders for May 22
with or without trade of two used
vehicles.
Tenders for the box, plow, and
wing will be discussed at a later
time.
Following recommendations
from Chief Building Inspector Leo
Sanders demolition permits were
issued to: Sarah Anderson, Lot 8,
Cone. 5, shed; and Evert Stryker,
Lot 6, Cone. 5, old school house.
Building permits were approved
for: John Eleman, Lot 1, Cone. 3,
two-car garage; Doug Chapman,
Lot 56, 57, Cone. 1, shed; Evert
Stryker, Lot 6, Cone. 5, double car
detached garage; Sarah Anderson,
Lot 8, Cone. 5, shed; Herbert
Palmer, Lot 30, Cone. 3, addition to
value of residence permit issued in
1989; and Hugh Ives and Jane
Smith Spt. Lot 18, Cone. 6, drive
shed.
Reeve Doug Fraser declared a
pecuniary interest concerning the
next matter as he is the proposed
purchaser of the lot in question. A
motion was made that Councillor
Clem McLellan assume the chair.
The subject of George Blake
severance, Lot 30, Cone. 9, was
discussed and the conditions which
the County of Huron Planning and
Development committee place on
the decision.
The structure of the lot had been
inspected by Mr. Sanders.
The motion was passed that
further to the condition of the
planning department which states
the residence on the property must
be occupied for a reasonable length
of time before a demolition permit
can be issued, Council decided that
it must be occupied for at least two
months.
Mr. Sanders will inspect the
structure again before issuing a
letter stating that the walls, roof
and windows are in a state of
repair.
A grant of $150 is being given to
the Brussels Agricultural Society.
Council approved a tile drain
application for Wayne Hopper for
Lot 21, Cone. 3, subject to avail
ability of funds.
Wayne Riley was appointed com
missioner of the Johnston Drainage
project for the township at Lot 1,
Cone. 1.
Council had no objections to the
amendment of the County of Huron
for Brussels, which affects Part of
Park Lot 2 RP in the village to
establish the lots for residential
use.
A grant of $60 is to be given to
the Huron County Roads Superin
tendents Association.
Blyth family
A 17-year-old Blyth girl was the
driver of a car that was involved in
a single vehicle accident on May 1,
at 8:17 a.m. on Highway 4 next to
the Ministry of Natural Resources,
just south of Wingham.

Jennifer Allan, was northbound on
highway 4 at a speed of 80
kilometres an hour, when she
swerved to miss debris and the left
front tire of the 1981 Mercury

the caregivers support group,
“Kids Are Us’’, council felt a grant
was not justified at this time.
Council authorized Mrs. Michie
to attend the Clerks, Treasurers
meeting in Kincardine.
A Waste Management meeting
will be held in Wingham for Clerks
and Council on May 23.
A request has been received for a

of $47,359.46 and road accounts in
the amount of $23,910.68 were

road. The car spun around and
rolled onto its roof into the east
ditch.

only minimal injuries as a result of
the crash and was taken by

SHOP EARLY FOR MOM
A couple of weeks ago we ran an
advertisement concerning our lost
dog. Missing since April 12, we
advertised extensively with no
response. We finally found her
dead with a bullet wound in her side
and her collar missing, laying
innocently on the outskirts of a
nearby bush.
A part of our family for four years
shewasalways friendly and seldom
strayed from home. She certainly
didn't deserve to be shot and it
would be highly unlikely for her to
be mistaken as a groundhog or any
other wildlife.
Whoever took her collar could
have found out who the owners
were, but we were never notified.
It upsets us to know that a thing
like this can happen to any pet,
especially ours who was expecting
puppies.
If perhaps you accidentally shot
our dog, admit to your mistake. It
would ease your conscience and
ours too.
Thank you
Tim and Donna Prior.
