Morris passes 2 zoning changes Obituaries Morris Council passed two re­ zoning by-laws after a public meeting held during regular ses­ sion on September 4. Reeve Doug Fraser declared a pecuniary inter­ est as he is the proposed purchaser of one of the lots. Joanne Richter of the Huron County Planning Department was in attendance as were landowners George and Marie Blake and Sid and Melody White, the proposed purchasers of the second property. Reeve Fraser asked Mrs. Richter to review the application and the proposed amendment for Trans- maris Farms Lot 15, Cone. 6. A letter was read from the Health Unit stating that they had no objections to the amendment and the Huron County Planning De­ partment recommended approval of the application. There were no objections from council or from any landowners in attendance. Clem McLellan was appointed chairman for the zoning amend­ ment meeting for Lot 30, Cone. 9. The application was reviewed and there were no comments or objections to the proposal. The Planning Department again recom­ mended approval. A motion was made stating that the residence on the Blake property at Lot 30, Cone. 9 has been occupied for a reason­ able length of time. Reeve Fraser resumed the posi­ tion of chairman after the zoning amendment passed. In regular business Bruce Mc- *Lennan of Harris Computer Sys­ tems made a presentation to Coun­ cil of a final quote for a computer system. Council accepted the pro­ posal for a Microcomputer with two video display terminals and one 250 Character per second printer. Also included is software for tax billing, Accounts Payable, and uniplex- word processing for the quoted price of $20,000. The resolution from the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters concerning the threat of the zebra mussel in the water systems was supported by Council. The resolu­ tion requests that the federal and provincial governments create massive research and control initia­ tives for the zebra mussels. A letter was read from a Walton landowner’s lawyer advising Coun­ cil that his client objects to the use of the service station, as he feels it does not conform with the by-law. It is presently being used as an auto-repair shop. Roger Brown, Brian Marks and one other Walton resident attended the meeting to discuss the concern. After discussion about the nature of the complaint of the building’s use the owner was given re-zoning forms and told any additional information would be forwarded to him. Clarification is being sought from the County Planning Depart­ ment as well. Council designated September 23-29 as “Build Safe, Build Smart Week’’; October 15 - 20 as “Local Government Week’’ and November 19 - 25 as. “Recycling Week” in Morris. The information sheet for the recycling program was approved and will be distributed to residents with the blue boxes. It was decided that the township should enter into an agreement with Bluewater Recycling in Grand Bend and ship the materials to their plant. A letter will be for­ warded to Bluewater requesting the necessary contract forms. The Huron County Health Unit has requested that Council attach a form to building permits explaining that plumbing permits are requir­ ed. A copy of Bill 229 was presented to the Council for review. It outlines that at the next municipal election the head of council will be named Mayor. Council authorized Clerk Nancy Michie to attend a Freedom of Information workshop at Conestoga College on October 16, with the $90 registration paid. A request was received from a landowner on the Centre Sideroad in Bluevale concerning the timing of pavement on the road. Council asked Mrs. Michie to forward a letter to the resident advising that Council plan the project in the near future when MTO funding is available. Council also asked that suggestions to help the speed limit problem be included in the letter, as they are aware that when the road is paved the speeding of vehicles will be increased causing a safety problem. A motion was made that the township proceed to register the by-law and deed for the acquisition of the road allowance on Part 7, Cone. 1 from Bridge Motors and forward necessary costs to them.
