WEDNESDAY, JULY 10, 2002. PAGE 7. Lockridge may be sold By Mark Nonkes Wingham Adl'allCe Times A hid to purchase the Lockridge Memorial Arena has been made by Howick Homes. According to George OrioId, one of the owners of Howick Homes, the arena will be used for a bit of pre-fabricated housing for the first little while. "Eventually I'd like to find a better use for it," OnoId said. "The intention is to find the best use for the building," At the North Huron council By Mark Nonkes Wingham Advance Times The Wingham landfill site is hoping to stay right where it is. According to a report by Art Clark presented to North Huron Twp. council July 2, the landfill site will stay open for many years to come. "We're going to keep doing what we've done in that site," Clark said. The Wingham dump was given until the end of 2002 to come up with a plan for waste disposal in accordance with the Ministry of Environment's protection act. In order to get the approval for long-term use of the site North Huron had to create an environmental protection act application. Under the plan council purchased the the land and 100 acres surrounding it. meeting last Tuesday, July 2, councillors discussed giving the arena a temporary zoning change. North Clerk-Administrator John Stewart reported at a public meeting, where the neighbours of the arena and the potential buyers met, concern was expressed about construction noise and a higher volume of traffic. Council discussed granting the company a year-long temporary zoning change for the arena. That way residents would get a chance to see what having the company in the neighbourhood was like. The plan also outlines where the garbage will be placed. Clark said new garbage will be piled on top of existing waste to create a hill. The dump will also plant more trees along its edge. Councillor Jeff Howson asked Clark if the Blyth dump was closed would the Wingham landfill site be able to handle that excess waste. Clark said that the application had been set up to take into account that garbage as it is a North Huron site. "You're just full of good news," said Blyth ward Councillor Murray Nesbitt. Clark responded by saying that he also had some bad news too. The fee for the applications was $22,700. That was set by the ministry and could not be changed. Council then voted and gave unanimous support on sending the application. "This way is kind of a fix that will please both parties," Reeve Doug Layton said. "The residents are looking at the worst possible things," Councillor Murray Nesbitt added. However, COuncillor Jeff Howson said that granting a temporary licence might discourage businesses from opening in Wingham. "There arc other municipalities begging for business." Howson said. Howson said that a temporary licence has no security if it (the council) was able to pull the plug on the company after one year. "If we arc going to sit here as a council and say no...then we're wasting our time," Howson said. Council will vote on the options presented at the next council meeting, July 15. OPP investigate break-in at feed store On July 5 at 8:15 a.m. OPP were called to a break-in at Snell Feed and Supply located on Westfield Road in East Wawanosh Twp. Officers discovered that sometime during the night a door to the structure was forced open to the business and some cash was stolen. Also, Doug Snell Auto Repair, which adjoins the mill, was also entered. This time keys left inside on a desk were taken and a customer's vehicle a 1984 C-l0 pickup truck red/grey in colour having Ontario plates #EY9863 was stolen from the parking lot. Anyone who can solve this crime is asked to call the local OPP or Crime Stoppers.
