Brussels council briefs
No conflict of interest for appointee
The already crowded council
chamber at Brussels Municipal
office Monday night was packed
even tighter when 21 members of
the Brussels Cub Scout Pack
attended the first part of village
council. Along with several other
spectators the Cubs made for a
standingroom only audience. The
Cubs left after about 15 minutes.*****
After concerns expressed at last
month’s council meeting about a
possible conflict of interest on the
part of local insurance and real
estate agent Keith Mulvey in
servingonthe Brussels, Morris
andGrey industrial committee,
council learned that there is no
reason for concern.
Clerk-Treasurer Hugh Hanly
reported talking to the Ministry of
Municipal Affairs and learning
that since Mr. Mulvey would not be
going out seeking business for
himself, he was not in any conflict
ofinterest. If ithappenedthata
business being lured by the
industrial committee wanted to
buy land he was trying to sell, he
should declare conflict of interest
and not take part in any discussion.*****
Following up on a query about no
parking signs near main-street
intersections that arose at the
ratepayers meeting last month,
councillors decided that signs were
too expensive to install so mark
ings will be painted on the street to
indicate there should be no parking
near intersections.
Council has asked for a second
opinion on repairs to the chimney
on the village library. Councillors
had been given one quote for
repairs and repointing of the brick
but wondered if the chimney would
be taken apart down to a point
where it is crooked and rebuilt.
They will decide which course of
action to follow after getting more
information.*****
Donations for $250 to the Town
and Country Homemakers and
$125 to the Wingham and District
Association for the Mentally Re
tarded, and $100 to the Salvation
Army were approved by council.
Council also agreed to donate $200
to the Brussels Fire Department to
help purchase pins that will be sold
for Homecoming.*****
Council will set up a meeting
with Tom Hanrahan to discuss an
emergency planning by-law to
make sure lines of authority and
other necessary information is in
place in case of an emergency. Mr.
Hanrahan, county co-ordinator of

Cathy McGavin
Continued from page 14
program. Some of McMasters
former placements are the Crippl
ed Children’s Centre in St. Cathar
ines, St. Joseph’s Hospital in
Hamilton, Wingham District Hos
pital and St. Joseph’s hospital in
London.
When faced with a need for
another placement, Cathy McGav
in realized that the Community
Psychiatric Service in Goderich
was under the direction of an
occupational therapist, Joy Day-
mond. McGavin’s insight and
research in finding this clinical
placement opens the doors for
future students.
McGavin discussed occupation
al therapy and the misconceptions
about this field before she returned
to her in-class studies. She reveal
ed the OT is often confused with
physiotherapy which deals with
the physical dysfunctions of a
patient. OT looks at how the
disability affects everything the
persondoesanddealswith both
the mind and the body. The goal of
OT, the 21 year old McGavin said is
“to maintain, promote and im
prove a person’s overall function
which has been disrupted because
of a health or life crisis.”
OT is a “very interesting career
for people who are interested in
working with people and enjoy a
challenge” McGavin concluded.
