Crawford enjoys Co-op tour
Century House opens in Ethel
There was a gala occasion in Ethel Sunday as Huron-Middlesex MP Murray Cardiff and Grey Township
Reeve Leona Armstrong, centre, shared the honour of cutting a bright red ribbon to officially declare the
hamlet’s Century House Rest Home open, flanked by the new facility’s owner-operators, Cindy and Cliff
Robinson. A large crowd braved blustery weather to come in to tour the home, and to share tea in the
renovated hotel’s dining room. It was the first time in his political career that Mr. Cardiff has officiated at
the opening of a new business in his own home town, and he made much of the occasion, never losing his
aplomb as people crowded past him to share in the festivities.
The Sacrament of Holy Com
munion will be observed in Knox
Presbyterian Church on Sunday,
April 3, at 9:45 a.m.

Townships to go to user-cards for dump
Continued from page 1
figures which represent each
township’s use of the site.
Landfill site users will be asked
to sort their trash before taking it to
the dump, so that paper, glass and
recyclable cans may be deposited
in their proper compartments of
the huge bin. Mr. Knight says the
township may have to hire a third
caretaker for the site to ensure the
refuse is properly sorted before
being deposited.
“The (companies) that buy
recyclabl e material are very parti
cular abotit what they will accept, ’ ’
said Brian Leyser. “They’ll reject a
whole truckload of stuff if even one
item does not meet their specifica
tions.”
Mr. Leyser’s company will pick
up the collected material whenever
the bin at the dump is full, paying
the municipality a flat $25 per ton
for all material less trucking
charges. The company in turn sells
the stored refuse to recycling
conglomerates, which pay up to
$1,500 per ton for clean aluminum
cans. He added that his company
collects about 10 tons of aluminum
from Stratford each year, a figure
which will rise dramatically once
more beverage cans are converted
from tin.
Grey Twp. Reeve Leona Arm
strong said it was obvious that the
township would never get rich
selling recyclable trash, but
agreed with Morris Reeve Doug
Fraser who said “This is the way
we’ll all have to go in the future, or
we’ll all be buried in our own
garbage.
“I think we (Morris Twp.)
should have a bin at our own site,”
said councillor Howie Morton. “If
we can get Brussels on a recycling
kick, we could save a lot of dump
space.”
The village of Brussels uses the
Morris Twp. site located on the
Centre Sideroad just north of
Gounty Road 16, as do the
residents of the parts of Belgrave,
Bluevale and Jamestown that lie
within the township boundaries.
Morris council indicated it would
likely set up a meeting with
Brussels in the near future to
discuss the plan.
Following the Leysers depar
ture, the councils involved discuss
ed the feasibility of going to a
user-card system of admitting
persons to dump trash at the Grey
Twp. landfill site. They are still
angry and disgusted about one or
more incidents which took place in
late February, when several live
stockcarcasses were dumped in
the “clean burnable material” pit
at the site.
Although Grey landfill site
attendantTom Williamson said
that although he has “a rough idea
where one of the carcasses came
from,” he admits that there is
almost no way the perpetrator
could be charged. But both he and
the councils want to make sure the
incident is not repeated.
In the end, the three councils
agreed to adopt a user-card
system, with the details of the
procedure to be worked out later.
Mr. Knight said that he hoped the
cards will be ready to go out to
every dumpsite user with the
municipalities’interim tax notices,
which are sent out in June.
All three councils agreed that
policingthe user-cards must be
strict: if a dumpsite user tries to
come in without his card, or
without the site supervisors’ per
sonal knowledge of where he pays
his taxes, he can and will be turned
away unless he can prove his
identity by some other method,
such as showing his driver’s
licence, which gives the holder’s
lot and concession number.
“The use and abuse of landfill
sites is becoming critical all across
the country,” said Reeve Arm
strong. “Unless we are all prepar
ed to really crack down, we are all
going to be in big trouble a few
years down the road.’’
