The Citizen, 1991-02-13, Page 9THE CITIZEN, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 13, 1991. PAGE 9. Man requests engineer accounting of drain repair A. J. Sherwood attended the February 5 meeting of West Wawa- nosh Council to bring forth several issues for council’s consideration. A street light at the corner of Southampton and Joseph Street in Dungannon is in, Mr. Sherwood’s opinion, burned out more frequent­ ly than any other. He sees this is possibly causing problems with other lights and Ontario Hydro should consider replacing it. Mr. Sherwood questioned whether the Joseph St. construc­ tion could be causing water to back up on his land. The Road Superintendent noted the munici­ pal drain has broken tile on the north side of the road. It was decided the drainage superinten­ dent should investigate. He also asked if the township grader would do the necessary work on the road construction he proposes to have done. Council agreed that the work should be done by a private contractor, not by using municipal equipment. Robert Hallam also was present to protest the engineer’s charges on the Andrew-Finnigan Drain, which he deems excessive. Mr. Hallam requested council obtain an itemized accounting of engineering Heritage party In honour of its upcoming 125th anniversary in 1992 and to publi­ cize work on a commemorative history book, the East Wawanosh Historical Committee is holding a Heritage Party on February 17 at East Wawanosh Public School from 2 - 4 p.m. Lori Jamieson of the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food in Guelph is the Publishing Liaison. She says the book is still work in progress; “a big work, with lots of progress to yet be made”. They are, she said, still looking for pictures. “We may not use all the ones that come in, but the more we get the more we can turn over. People are finding more and more recently. They’re digging a little deeper in the attic.” When completed the book will be 450 pages of stories, pictures, and artifacts from weddings, fairs, newspapers, and odds and ends, reliving the township’s past. The committee will be pre-selling copies at a lesser price and it is expected to be ready for Christmas delivery of 1991. The Heritage Party is planned to emphasize that this book is a community project. “It will give people the chance to read their stories and make changes,” said Ms. Jamieson. “If it hadn’t been for the donations this book could not have been done.” Everyone is encouraged to dress in heritage costume. Along with musical entertainment there will be a fashion show of outfits from the past 125 years. There will be games for the children, an old-fashioned spelling bee and free refreshments. A nursery and play area for small ones has been set up for parents to drop their children at so they can visit more freely. Ms. Jamieson said that a great deal is owed to the centennial book committee who compiled a small paperback book in 1967. “A great deal of the original research for this project was completed by them and we owe them a lot for that. History is important. They gathered that information for people so they could have it in their homes.” “One of my jobs,” Ms. Jamieson added, “is to make people see that we need current pictures as wen. Fifty years from now we’ll be old and those stories and photos from today will be important then. Many don’t see that history is also what happened today.” charges. Council voted unanimously that Clerk Joan Armstrong contact engineer J. A. McBride to request the account and should there be engineer charges for a more detail­ ed accounting, Mr. Hallam will be expected to pay these. Reeve Cecil Cranston and Mrs. Armstrong were authorized to apply to the Ministry, of Transpor­ tation for supplementary funding under the Anti-Recession Program in the amount of $150,000 to hard surface part of Concession roads 4/5 and 6/7 this year. West Wawanosh is notifying county engineer Denis Merrall stating they wish to be kept informed of the progress on the county’s study of how to improve County Road 20. The 1990 budget for the Dun­ gannon Recreation board, showing an estimate of $1,650 was approv­ ed. Joe Gibson was appointed as the township weed inspector. Mrs. Armstrong and/or the road superintendent have been directed to investigate the possible pur­ chase of 200 trees from the Ministry of Natural Resources for replanting by the township resi­ dents. Cost per tree, must not be above $10. Council agreed to accept respon­ sibility for the payment of 50 per cent of the cost of the work authorized by Ashfield Township, to repair the municipal drain in Dungannon on Joseph St. The total cost is approximately $500. Mrs. Armstrong was given authorization to advertise for a person to count the dogs and sell tags. A severance application for Bruce and Norma Raynard has been amended to alter the propos­ ed use from a farm residential-rural to commercial-industry. Council recommended that the 300 acre parcel of land, owned by the estate of Edgar Carr remain as one parcel, rather than split it into two lots of 100 and 200 acres. The application to amend land by Ruth, Edward and Judith Hather- ley from residential to agricultural- commercial was approved. This is on the condition that “the use conforms to the township secon­ dary plan. The approval is for the severing of three acres plus a barn and a house occupied by William Shetler. Mrs. Armstrong has been advis­ ed to obtain a survey of salaries, wages and benefits that exist in surrounding municipalities. The general accounts in the amount of $18,375.15 and the road accounts totalling $11,441.68 were approved for payment.
