Brussels, Exeter continue to talk garbage
By Bonnie Gropp
Citizen staff
The topic of garbage continues to
come up at Brussels council as it's
decided what becomes of the waste
when the agreement with Morris
Twp. ends.
On Monday night. Clerk-Treasurer
Donna White said that she had sent a
letter to Morris stating that council
having reviewed the proposed agree
ment outlining a cost of $100 per
tonne felt it was considerably higher
than anticipated. Having reviewed
other options, council decided to
accept an offer from the Town of
Exeter subject for formalizing an
agreement.
However. White wrote, council
would like to continue the current
agreement tor commercial business
with Morris. It was also asked if
Brussels residents could use the site
on Saturdays and pay an appropriate
fee.
White told councillors at their
meeting that Morns had responded
by stating essentially all or nothing.
The Morris clerk also wrote that
council would still consider an
agreement for all the waste.
“It’s a power trip,” said Councillor
Joe Seili. “Typical Morns. Basically
what they were looking cat was to
have us finance Turnberry.”
With the amalgamation of Morris
and Turnberry at the end of the year.
Turnberry will be using the Morris
landfill site.
White also sent a letter to the
county explaining that Brussels was
working on an arrangement with
Exeter. “I am moving it along as
quickly as possible bit I’m afraid
time's running out.”
There is also investigation into
temporary use of the Walton dump.

Wagon load of fun
It was a day of sunshine and sunny smiles as the Wawanosh Nature Centre hosted its annual
fall colour tour. In addition to wagon rides through the nature centre participants this year could
also take in the fly-tying demonstration. Anglers were able to get information from the staff. If
preferred visitors could pick up trail maps and explore the bushes and the river area on their
own. The conservation area and education centre is located on Nature Centre Rd. south west
of Belgrave from London Rd.. (Vicky Bremnerphoto)
