Chief Building Official Paul
Josling informed council that the
county proposes hiring a student
through Grey Twp., to review the
MDS formula and intensive live-
stock operations,
The review would also look at
manure bylaws to determine if a
more universal system could be
achieved. It was noted by Clerk-
Treasurer Nancy Michie, that Mor-
ris has their own MDS formulas,
while Josling said he felt each

done if the application for a stu-
dent, through Environmental Youth
Corp, was not approved.

to all residents with their interim
tax billings. Tenants will receive a
separate mailing.
Josling also reported on a meet-

fire co-ordinator, regarding a
request by Brussels council for an

nance of the Brussels Fire Depart-
ment instead of purchasing fire
protection at $100 per month, as is
the case at present.
Mutual Aid will service Morris
Twp., under the agreement, as a
fire service instead of only 'first
response'.

fire hydrants.
Approval of a draft schedule for
