THE CITIZEN, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 1993. Morris proceeds with CN rail line purchase Road Superintendent Lloyd Michie advised council at the Aug 24 meeting, that CN had called concerning the removal of rails and ties from the line. CN had given the road dept. per- mission to remove the rails and ties that they unhooked. The road crew was to place them along the CN right-of way. Since then, the rails and ties have disappeared but, the township is not aware of who removed them. Council passed a bylaw to pro- ceed with the transaction to pur- chase the CN rail line which is located within the township bound- aries. They will also request that the bridge at Lot 27, Conc. 1 remain intact. Andy McBride of Maitland Engi- neering Service was present at the meeting to discuss several drain issues. Improvements and repairs were proposed for the Nichol Drain, however, after discussion and on the advice of Mr. McBride, council decided only necessary repairs be done at present. Council appointed Mr. McBride to prepare a report on the drain for further improvements next year. The results of the survey will be presented at a meeting scheduled for Sept. 9, at BMG Community Centre. The public meeting for affected landowners will begin at 8:30 p.m., to discuss all proposed changes. Council informed Mr. McBride of a landowner at Lot 9,Conc. 7, who had tile drained his land into the Spivey Drain. His land should not be in the drain's watershed. Mr. McBride will look into the problem. Council accepted the drainage petitions for the following drains: Bird Drain, Lot 11, Conc. 7; Coultes Drain, Lot 5 and 6, Conc. 5; Wells Drain, Lot 10, 11 and 12, Conc. 9 and Fease Drain, Lot 12, Conc. 8. A petition from the Ministry of Transportation for the Arbuckle Drain was also accepted. A bylaw was passed by council to authorize the Warwick-Johnston Mutual Agreement Drain for Lots 15 and 16, Conc. 2. Maitland Engineering Services presented a bill to council for the installation of wells and testing at the landfill site. The bill to date is $5,186.64. Mr. Lloyd Michie gave council a report on the state of construction on the Pletch storm sewer. He said the sewer had been straightened in the Lyle Campbell lot as he had requested. Council was advised the Beth Proctor lot could not be connected to the Pletch sewer because the house drains were lower than the storm sewer. The water from her lot would have to be drained north and east down the road sewer. Mr. Michie said the George Carter lot had been connected to the storm sewer and this should help the Proctor lot. Council authorized Mr. Michie to begin digging along Brandon Street so the Proctor lot would have an outlet. Kenneth Shortreecl of South Part Lot 19, Conc. 9 received no objec- tions from council for a way side pit permit for the 1993 gravel appli- cation. This was allowed because there is no other accessible gravel in the area but, the gravel must still meet MTO standards. Craig Metzger of the Huron County Planning Department attended the meeting to explain an application for re-zoning by James McCallum of Queen Street, Bel- grave. Grey Twp. council held its regular meeting on Aug. 30, and passed a bylaw authorizing the purchase of all lands presently under the ownership of Canadian National Railways within Grey. A resolution was passed authorizing the Brussels, Morris and Grey Board of Recreational Management to purchase a dish- washer for use by the B. M. & G. Catering group. Council accepted the offer of A Grey Twp. woman was taken to Listowel Hospital with major injuries following a two vehicle crash in Grey last Friday.
