Brussels joins
fight against
road rebate
reduction
Brussels council voted, Monday
night, to join in a petition by other
urban municipalities in the county
to reverse county's decision to
reduce the urban road rebate.
At the February meeting of coun
ty council, councillors voted to
reduce the rebate to urban munici
palities on the road levy from 45
per cent to 40 per cent. County
Engineer Denis Merrall had
explained to county council that if
the road rebate that goes to urban
municipalities because they don't
get as much service from county
highways, remained at 45 per cent,
the county levy would have to be
increased by two per cent to every
taxpayer in the county. If the rebate
was decreased, however, most
urban municipalities would still get
about what they had last year, he
said. Brussels received $12,240
last year and with assessment
changes, will still get $12,706 this
year even with the 40 per cent rate.
If the 45 per cent rate had been
retained, however, Brussels would
receive $14,294.
The campaign to change the
county's decision has been led by
the town of Goderich which claims
urban municipalities have already
been hit hard by the reassessment
this year and the urban rebate
change will hit them again.
Goderich is to present a brief to
county council Thursday asking
that the decision be reversed. Brus
sels councillors voted to support
the brief and asked Reeve Gordon
Workman to vote in favour of rein
stating the rebate to the 45 per cent
rale.
Blyth Council
protests new
conflict law
Unhappy with a resolution from
the Township of Hay they felt was
n't strong enough in its opposition
to new provincial conflict of inter
est legislation, Blyth councillors
voted Feb. 25 to prepare a strongly-
worded resolution of their own for
their next meeting.
Councillor John Elliott called the
Hay resolution not nearly strong
enough. "I think it (the provincial
legislation) is completely uncalled
for," he said. He said the new legis
lation would make it very difficult
for people to run for elected office
at the municipal level and would
burden municipalities with horren
dous costs.
Councillor Steven Sparling said
current conflict of interest legisla
tion is working at the municipal
level because it is virtually self
policing. Councillors know each
other well enough that they know
when someone is likely to be in a
conflict of interest, he said. He
worried what David Cook, Minister
of Municipal Affairs had in mind
with the legislation, knowing as he
did it met heavy opposition from
the municipalities. Perhaps, he sug
gested, Mr. Cook feels he could
propose a outrageous bill, then
compromise to a position that's half
way to what he had proposed but
still too far.
Councillor Sparling suggested
council should make its own
response to the bill. Councillor
Elliott moved that a resolution be
prepared which said the current
conflict of interest legislation was
adequate and that the legislation is
a case of a higher level of govern
ment imposing its will on a lower
level with the municipalities having
to pay the cost. Once the resolution
has been passed it is to be circulat
ed to Huron county, other munici
palities, Paul Klopp, M.P.P. for
Huron and Mr. Cook.
Brussels 4Hers
close-knit
group
BY BARB PEHLKE
Thirteen members of the
Brussels 14H club met at the home
of Gabriele McLaughlin at 7 p.m.
The president Sherry Baan
opened the meeting by saying the
4H pledge. Then the members
answered the roll call after which
they started working on samplers.
Some members learned how to
purl. Then everyone was taught
knit two, purl two, rib three.
The president then closed the
meeting by saying “learn to do by
doing”.
The next meeting was held at
Kathy Bridge's house at 7 p.m.
Members looked through maga
zines to find different clothing
made from different wools.
The first samplers were finished
and most of then turned out well.
Now the members are working
on the second sampler which
involves increasing and decreasing
stitches.
A name was chosen for the title
page. It will be called the knit wits.
