North Huron council briefs North Huron approves hiring of treasury assistant Getting better North Huron council at its April 15 meeting approved the hiring of a a full-time treasury assistant. Clerk-Administrator John Stewart told council that the consultant during amalgamation had advised council could hire one more part-time or full-time person in treasury. At the time it was felt that Transition Director Winona Thompson could fill in where needed. Thompson, however, will soon be retiring, Stewart said. 'Also, water billing, which originally was not going to be done from the office but is, takes up about three-quarters of one person's time, hesaid. *** Council awarded the contracts for the construction work on the Blyth and District Community Centre to the bidders recommended by project manager, Paul Jackson. *** Another letter received from the Blyth Legion Ladies Auxiliary expressing opposition to the•replacement of seats at Blyth Memorial Hall was, after some discussion, filed. Council had made a unanimous decision at a previous meeting to allow Blyth Festival to install the new seats. Having received.a phone call from the Legion president after that motion was made, Councillor Murray Nesbitt went and tried out the new seats and said he "doesn't see anything wrong with them." Councillor Jeff Howson said he too had spoken to various Legion people and felt that the majority really were not opposed to the change. "We made a motion. I thought all has been said and done." *** Despite the decision to maintain the Wingham police force for that ward, while contracting with the OPP for Blyth and East Wawanosh, council felt it was important they have a representative at a meeting to discuss a county- wide police contract. "I feel strongly that we have representation. I think we want to be part of the whole information process," said Howson. Reeve Doug Layton and Councillor Jim Campbell are attending the meeting, which is to he held April 25 in Clinton. *** While Central Huron has opted out of the Blyth and District Community Centre agreement, the municipality has said it would contribute $15,000 to the operating costs, said Stewart. This however, does not match what the municipality would pay if it was based on a usage percentage, he added. Thus while Morris-Turnberry is still committed to the arena, Stewart said there will have to be a discussion on how costs will be shared. "I'm not sure how they can pay by percentage if Central Huron isn't. It works out to about the same amount, but Central Huron has about twice as many kids using the facility as Morris-Turnberry," he explained. *4* Stewart, Deputy Clerk Kathy Adams and Thompson will attend the AMCTO Zone 2 meeting, May 16 at a cost of $25 per person. *** Stewart and Adams will attend the AMO new Municipal Act training May 29 in London at a cost of $187.25 per person. *4* Council endorsed a resolution from the Twp. of Otonabee-South Monaghan to petition the Minister of the Solicitor General to remove any response time criteria in reference to rural Ontario. *** Council allocated $500 to Road Watch. *** A donation in the amount of $250 will be given to the Belgrave, Blyth, Brussels School Fair board. *** Council authorized a donation of $500 to the Wingham firefighters July 1 fireworks display. *** Council was informed that judging for Communities in Bloom will be done July 29 in Blyth and July 30 Wingham. *** Following an in-camera session, council accepted the offer to purchase the Lockridge Memorial Arena.
