Council will not commit

stated, "Facing reality, someone has
to take the garbage. Our own site
could be closed in 10 years. I'd 'be
more opposed if it was Toronto's
.garbage."
"How do you know we won't get
Toronto's garbage?" was the quick
retort from one of the group.
Elliott was piqued with the group
for not being informed personally
of the May 27 meeting. "You.
come here tonight asking for sup-
port, and I didn't even hear about
the, meeting that Friday until I read
about it in the paper the next
week."
Bev Grierson told council the
meeting had been advertised on
CKNX and was included in . the
Dungannon column in the Sentinel,
and that Hallam knew about it.
Elliott replied that because the
reeve knew about it didn't mean the
whole council did. "It wouldn't
have been hard to call the council-
lors."
ouncil-
lors. "
Grierson tried to placate Elliott by •
saying that the meeting was an
organizational one to find out if a
coalition group would have the
support of the community.
Council , verbally agreed to give '
support to the coalition group
through access to township records,
and assistance with obtaining infor-
mation they may need from county
and provincial bodies. Minutes from
•the meeting read, "No motion of
council to indicate its position on
the question was put forward at this
time."
No commitment was given to the
request for financial support. "We
have -to look at what the long-term
implications could be if we (provide
financial support to this' group,"
said Foster.
The coalition group has desig-
nated specific areas of impact to be
examined by individuals who will
report at the group's next meeting
on June 24, 8 p.m. at St. Augustine
Church.
OMB hearing switched
to pre -conference
by Pat Livingston
KINLOSS TOWNSHIP - What
was supposed to be a full On-
tario Municipal Board (OMB)
hearing on Aug. 3, regarding the
proposed rezoning of property by
Donegan Haulage, will now be a
pre -conference hearing.
Mark Becker, clerk of Kinloss
Township, says the hearing will
discuss the issues and also try to
resolve some of the concerns.
Donegan's 1991 application to
have 15 hectares at Lot 16, Con.
5, rezoned from Al (agriculture)
to M2 (extractive industrial) was
turned down by council:
Subsequent to Donegan's ap-
peal to the OMB, a mediation
meeting was held on Aug. 4,
1993, to see if some resolution
could be arrived at prior to the
expense of a full board meeting.
The appointed mediator recom-
mended to the OMB chair that a
full hearing be scheduled.
• A hearing date set for Dec. 3,
1993 was subsequently
postponed when the applicant,
Donegan Haulage, cited a lack
of time given him. by the OMB
to send out the required notices,
which are to be in the hands of
any effected parties 50 days
prior to the hearing date.
This most recent change in the
hearing comes about at the re-
quest of the township solicitor
and the Ministry of Natural
Resources who want both
Donegan's applications for
rezoning and a pit license dealt
with at the same time. To date,
Becker says the applicant has not
provided all of the reports re-
quested' by the Ministry of
Natural Resources.

Tests proceed
*from page 1
testing have been signed with about
one third of the site awners, most
in the Ashfield locations (which
includes three farms owned by
County Warden Allan J. Gibson).
Testing will proceed on those
properties to see if they have
problems which would eliminate
them from further consideration,
Metzger said.
John Doherty, reeve of Goderich,
asked what happened if other lan-
downers refuse to sign agreements
allowing their properties to be
examined. Metzger said that under
the system set up to meet environ-
mental hearing standards, no
property can be eliminated from
consideration unless it has been
inspected and found to be ineligible
for environmental or other reasons.
"At some point we have to compare
all the properties. It will be up to
council to decide what action to
take (if property owners refuse
access)" At last month's meeting he
had indicated the county can
expropriate access to the properties
if landowners refuse to sign
agreements.
