clarifies 3 call responses
Brussels Fire Chief Murray
McArter responded to questions
from Morris council regarding fire
call billings, at the July II meeting
of Brussels council.
Morris council had forwarded a
letter to Brussels stating that three
calls from May 8 and 15 did not
conform to the terms of the
agreement with regards to contacting
other departments.
Brussels was only to be first
response for Huronlea and a grass
fire at Neil Gowing’s.
The call to Huronlea was reported

Here are the answers to last week’s
question, “Who you gonna call?’.’
a) Dawn Dolmage can show you
all the latest Avon products.
b) If you have a dog or cat in need
of a clip and/or shampoo, you might
call Marie Caldwell. With two dogs
of her own to care for and
recognizing that veterinarians don’t
necessarily have time to provide this
type of care, Marie decided to try her
hand at pet grooming. Although
recognizing that there are pet
groomers who are self taught, Marie
went to school to learn.
During two months of classes in
London, she learned how to clip the
various breeds, skin and hair care,
proper equipment and handling.
Through her classes Marie met other
groomers from around the province
as a kitchen tire, but was actually an
overheated dishwasher, said
McArter, so the Blyth department
was not needed.
McArter admitted to being a “little
bit guilty" on a grass fire call though
said the Brussels department had it
under control.
With the Higgins’ barn fire,
McArter said Wingham was called
and Brussels was told to go and use
up their water. Morris council had
asked why Brussels responded as the
property is not in the Brussels fire
area.
Councillor Joe Seili said he would
Council to repair sidewalks

The village water system has had ***
its annual inspection, White told
council and it was suggested more
sampling be done along with
chlorination at well 2.
The PUC is trying to determine
how to chlorinate as the 15-minute
contact time is not possible with no
reservoir.
Chlorination of the water supply
has continued since May 26.***
After complaints about transport
trucks using engine brakes in the
village, White said the OPP had
been contacted, both to ask Brussels
Livestock to post a request not to use
the brakes and to watch for others.
Consideration will be given to
posting ‘no engine brakes’ signs at
the edge of the village.***
White was authorized to contact a
company about cleaning out
catchbasins in the village. A request
will be made to have them done,
along with the county’s, next spring
as well.***
Accounts payable totalling
$12,761.33 were approved for
payment.***
Support was given to Windsor
regarding protection of water and
Ashfield Twp. for a moratorium on
liquid manure facility construction
or expansion.***
There were no objections for a
special occasions permit for the
Brussels Tigers’ ball tournament
with whom she makes contact if she
needs help with a client.
c) Through her regular nursing
shifts at the Clinton Public Hospital,
Rev. Riley realized that many
persons, particularly older patients
are no longer able to care for their
feet adequately. Now Bev offers foot
care in your home or hers. A friendly
visit with Bev will definitely help get
you going on the right foot.
d) If cutting your own lawn has
lost its appeal or you need lawn
maintenance while on vacation,
either Don Greidanus or Adam Wilts
may be able to help you out. These
teenagers each have a lawn tractor
and will travel.
The purpose of this little mental
exercise was to help you learn more
about your neighbours so, if you
have any questions about the people
mentioned, ask a neighbour.
Mike and Tanya Memer came to
the village in the latter.half of June
having purchased the former home
of Don and Catherine Allen. Mike
and Tanya have an 11-month-old
daughter, Alexis. Mike works in
Stratford at the Steelcraft plant while
Tanya is employed at The Clinton
News-Record.
' Welcome to Londesboro!
stay at the fire hall to ensure all
necessary calls were made.
McArter believed Morris Twp.
only wanted a clarification of the
calls and would be satisfied with a
letter of explanation.
In other fire department matters,
McArter requested a fax machine
be purchased for the fire hall
as Seaforth dispatch wanted
a written back-up of call instruc
tions when 9-1-I goes into
operation.
Brussels will also pay their portion
of a $13,000 upgrade of system
equipment for Seaforth dispatch.
