THE CITIZEN, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 26, 2006. Blustery weather doesn't keep McKillop ratepayers home By Shawn Loughlin stuff The people of McKillop ward seem to really care about their municipality. They would have to, in order to make it out to Cavan Church on Oct. 23 for McKillop's all- candidates meeting in the cold, slushy weather. Chair Bernie MacLellan, and Huron East councillors lined the back row of the seats chatting and exchanges pleasantries before the candidates stood up to say their respective piece. Nearly all of Huron East council was in attendence, as well as retiring councillor Sharon McClure (who was given a round of applause) as well as current councillor candidate in Morris-Tumberry Mark Beaven. It was a night of socializing and some not-so-hard questions, because as many of the candidates stated, McKillop ward is in pretty good shape. The current council was applauded for its work on the ward and there was no finger-pointing to be seen. Mayor Joe Seili drew top billing to speak and made the best of it by listing all of the acheivements that council has made under his watch. Seili also ensured the ratepayers that he would make no promises that he couldn't keep. Seili cited some firsts for the municipality, being that Huron East was the first in Canada to pass a child pornography bylaw and the first to complete the zoning bylaw that council is so proud of. Seili also said that none of the other municipalities are even close. Seili listed some specific goals should he be re-elected, these included building some affordable housing in Seaforth, making the Brussels library more accessible and one that is particularly close to his heart, moving the proposal of the beef-packing plant in Brussels along. Seili said that the status of the beef-packing plant in Brussels is moving along and that the study that was done has attracted interest from a group in Toronto and in January, council will be sending the study to China for hopeful market interest as well as investment interest. Mayoral candidate Lou Maloney spoke next, saying that he had spent enough time on council that he thought he should move up to mayor. The roads in McKillop are in pretty good shape Maloney said. He is interested in maintenence should he get elected and continuing the strong work that council has been doing. Councillor candidate Andrew Flowers told those in attendence that he is there for them. His main point for the people was accountability, saying that with him there won't be any running or ducking. Flowers stressed that it's not about his ideas, it's about the ratepayers' ideas and that he would act as a medium for those ideas between the citizens of McKillop and council. Candidate Jim Floyd also said that McKillop didn't have any major problems and that should he be elected he will have walked into a pretty reasonable situation. Final councillor candidate Bill Siemon asked for the support of the people on election day. N etwork Classifieds •. Advertise Across Ontario or Across the Country!
