Strategic meeting OrPOINV
CONTINUED from page 1
the Administration. Finance
laid Personale! Committee rec-
ommended the best way for
the county tar be proactive
wout:d-bet to bold a Strategic
Planning:Day next weak to
discuss a one -tier option:for
county restructuring.
But not alt the councillors
agreed- They did .agree that
restructuring needs to be dis-
e:ustted. but disagreed- with the
timing of the meeting and said
it should not be limited to the
26 members of the council.
• Coon. Brian McBurney of
Turnberry Twp. and Zoon.
Carol Mitchell of Clinton. in
particular. said they wanted
the meeting open to all munic-
ipal Council members.
•Mc$urney said all conneils
need to -be involved in a meet-
ing of such "magnitude" and
suggested it be delayed until
the store than ;1.50 municipal
council members are available
itzatisitld-.
Loan. ,Bill Vanstone of
Colborne Twp. presented the
recommendation to council
and admitted the timing •for
the meeting was -'quick," but
added it was only intended as
an information session to
establish a terms of referetwe
for future, bigger meetings
which would include all coun-
cils.
"There was no intention to
sneak something through."
said Vanstone. .
Cuun. Bruce _Machan of
Wingham agreed with the idea
an initial meeting should only
include the county council-
lors. He .said the county
' should have its "house in
order" before talking to the
municipal councillors and
asked how a. consensus could
possibly be - reachetd between
more than F50 politicians if
the 26 county councillors
e-oultdn't reach one first.
Coon. Pat Down of Usbtmie
Twp.. said trying to conte to a
consensus with:more than 150
people without first sdefining
where the dibiussion Should
gar would be an "horrendous"
task.
MitcI e1I and 'Mt:B.urney
continued their cry to have the
initial meeting open to all
councils .andquestioned the
need for the meeting in light
of an earlier decision -by the
county to stay out of -munici-
pal amalgamation talks.
Vanstonc said any discus-
sion around a one -tier option
would merely be a fact-find-
ing study which in turn will
give the municipalities the
information they need for
their own restructuring discus-
sions.
- 'Eventually a majority -of the
councillors agreed a strategic
planning meeting of county
council will be held on June
19 to determine a specific
agenda for a larger, all-euuncil
meeting to be held later.
Other restructuring • issues
such as policing and ambu-
lant:e services will also be dis-
cussed at the meeting.
