He then went on to present a summary of the important issues that were identified. He said that water quality and quantity had been the most prominent issues raised by the public and municipalities. However, later, when asked whether the issue of - water -taking could be given direc- tion in a revi.ed official plan, Ken- nedy suggested it was doubtful. "The issue remains to be clarified and I'm not sure how it can be addressed," said Kennedy. "Groundwater transcends county boundaries." Kennedy added that he was not sure whether an issue of the zoning of water -taking, similar to the situation in Culross Township, can be addressed in the final plan. He said he expected that in future public meetings, in Formosa to discuss the plan, he will become more informed. Culross Township council had voted last month against a zoning amendment which would allow commercial water -taking by the Vancouver based bottling company Clearly Canadian. Kennedy said that the report will be sent out to all members of coun- ty council who will deal with it next Tuesday in Walkerton. However, there was some confusion as to whether the report is to remain confidential. Although numerous copies were handed out during the public meeting, after the meeting a Sun Times correspondent was told he would have to wait until council dealt with it on Tues- day before he could have a copy. Simple majority is required •from .page 1 to what some described as the ine- quality of electing members of the highways committee while all other committees have their members determined by appointment. The new by-law also sets a simple majority as the requirement for adoption of a motion or report of a committee. Previously, committee reports and recorded votes needed a 66 per cent majority to pass. The by-law also gives the warden's final say .in what delegations will be allowed to appear at council. Walkerton reeve Dale • Wilson asked whether that move • was prompted by what he called the embarrassing episode last year when a Port Elgin delegation was first denied, then allowed, the op- portunity to speak. "It might have been embarrassing for you but it wasn't for me," said then -Warden Weir Sheane. "Somebody has to have control and I think the warden is the person to do that." Later:Sheane said it has been 11 years since the procedural bylaw was last updated.

Mrs. McGrath said an order in council could be made which would allow the 1994 election to take place and when the amalgamation date became effective, the newly elected council would take over. In regards to concerns raised at the open houses, Mrs. McGrath said they are all valid and not unreason- able. She said, "there will always be a fear of change and something unknown." "I think we can take these issues and deal with them one at a time," she said, adding none of them were insurmountable. Among the concerns raised was whether or not residents in what would be the former Huron Town- ship would have to pay if Ripley needed a new hydro substation.

Council learned Tuesday, Oct. 12 that the Community Facilities Improvement grant program no longer exists, and the county will have to apply through JobsOntario if it wants financial help with the building project. . Library director Marzio Apolloni said that programs looks at "the broader impact" of various projects, with the result that "there's more people fighting for fewer dollars". In the meantime, the library board wants an architect •to do cost and design estimates for the proposed headquarters.
