Elizabeth St. gets stop signs
Be careful what you ask for you
just might get it.
That's what happened at Brussels
council on Monday night following
complaints from three Frederick St.
residents about trucks not stopping
at the Elizabeth St. intersection of
Huronlea. Clerk Donna White told
councillors that the complaints had
come from people after they had
nearly been hit by vehicles coming
from the construction zone.
Councillors were at first divided
on where they felt the signs should
go. In the beginning Councillor
Dave Hastings and Councillor Greg
Wilson said it would be most
appropriate to have the sign placed
coming from the construction site
onto Elizabeth St.
Councillor Bruce Hahn, however,
said that legally the person coming
to a T-intersection should be the
one to yield to traffic so the sign
should be on Frederick St. Reeve
Gord Workman said if that was the
case then there should be a sign at
Smith's Lane, which comes from
the east onto Elizabeth St.
Councillors decided that if the
signs are to be placed the only way
is the legal way. Mrs. White was
given authorization to order two
stop signs, one going east from
Frederick St. and one going west

ished at Huronlea by mid
September and by October or
November at Huronview. She said
she'd never worked with a contrac
tor who was ahead of schedule
before.
What's more, County Treasurer
Bill Alcock said, the project looks
like it will be under budget. So far
only $85,390 of the $918,362 con
tingency funds has been used, most
of that for the costs of an on-site
supervisor. In addition, the Min
istry of Community and Social Ser
vices portion of the costs had
arrived earlier than had been pro
jected and the cost of interest for
the project will therefore be consid
erably lower than in the budget.
One problem on the horizon is
that the county may have to operate
part of the old home, even after the
move to the new sites, because
there are too many residents for the
capacity of the new home. The
county had imposed a freeze on

admissions two years ago in order
to bring the Huronview population
down to the capacity of the new
homes, but there are still 219 resi
dents at Huronview. Capacity of
the new homes is 180. A move is
scheduled for early in 1993.
The Transitional Committee
wrestled with the problem, looking
at four alternatives: keeping the
current building and the new
Huronlea site, but not opening the
new Clinton building until the pop
ulation had dropped to the right
capacity; not moving into either
new building until the numbers
were right; using the apartments at
the central site for overflow
instead of apartment use until the
numbers match the capacity; and
using the existing Huronview's
Park Place wing (built in 1967) for
any additional residents to the
capacity of the new homes. Council
approved the recommendation that
Park Place be used to handle the
overflow if needed.

Saturday morning, and bought
some items to take home to their
family at the flea market.
They had a ride through and
around Brussels and found it a
friendly place. They were
surprised to see cars slowing down
for them to cross safely as this
would never happen in their
country.
They also enjoyed a family
reunion which was held in Durham
on Sunday at the home of one of
Mrs. Devries' daughters. Several
family members entertained with
lively music, after which a
delicious potluck supper was
served.
