The beautification of Blyth along
the creek is one step closer to reali-
ty after the Sept. 5 meeting of Blyth
council.
Phil Beard of the Maitland Val-
ley Conservation Authority and
Kevin Coultes of the Ministry of
Natural Resources met with council
to outline a preliminary configura-
tion for the parkland.
The proposed greenway, which
runs for almost 1.5 km. through the
village, will include fisheries habi-
tat improvements, wildlife and
planting areas, recreational and her-
itage sites, walking trails, an
angler's trail and benches along the
way.
With a suggested plan in place,
council agreed to contact the neigh-
bouring landowners regarding the
plan as well as request input from
community groups, organizations
and clubs, who might be willing to
assist in the creation and upkeep of
the parkland.
Council will apply to the Inter-
ministerial Committee-Abandoned
Rail Right-of-Way for a lease.
It was suggested that a steering
committee would be set up, involv-
ing all the keyplayers in the project.

The option he preferred was to
purchase vacant Lot 66, Plan 168,
which is now owned by the village.
Council proceeded to pass a
bylaw which established a proce-
dure for the sale of village proper-
tY.
Lot 166, Plan 168 was declared
surplus and public notice would be
given.

Having received information that
bi-weekly recyclable pickup would
save the village $694.62 annually,
council decided pickup should
remain as a weekly service.
Councillors expressed concern
that bi-weekly pickups would not
collect as much recyclable materi-
als as residents would not save the
items for two weeks.
