But, the decision to go ahead with the pipeline must still be weighed by South Huron ratepayers. South Huron council didn't formally decide Nov. 3 to opt for the water pipeline - which is expected to solve the ward's water problems for the next 40 years - but favored it and taking Exeter's wells out of commission. A portion of Exeter is also served by a lake -water pipeline. The public is expected to give their opinions of the proposal at a meeting set for Dec. 10 at 7:30 p.m. in the large meeting room of the Olde Town Hall in Exeter. All summer, one of the possible solutions for Hensall has been linked to a decision for Exeter while South Huron council waited for an engineer's report which was received Nov. 3. If South Huron opted for a lake -water pipeline, Hensall could pay for an extension from Exeter to Hensall at an estimated cost of $3.6 million. At a public meeting in early May, Hensall citizens opted to delay their decision until the South Huron decision is known. Bluewater Mayor Bill Dowson said Monday the municipality won't make any decisions until South Huron's public meeting. "I think it's likely a good idea to go with a pipeline. We can't do much until they have a public meeting. If they do (decide to go with a pipeline), we'd have to decide what's justified. Hensall people will decide," he said. Engineer Steve Burns of B. M. Ross and Associates of Goderich told South Huron council of two options: expand and upgrade the current groundwater and water pipeline combination by expanding the Stephen supply and consolidating groundwater supplies in the Moody/Hicks area at a cost of $6.9 million, or build a 24 - inch water pipeline from Lake Huron for $11.6 million. Upgrading the system would ensure water supply for 18 years. Burns cited reasons for securing long-term water supply for Exeter being a provincial government mandate to upgrade the current water system and future growth. He broke down the estimated cost of the pipeline: $8.8 million for transmission mains; $805,000 for a booster pumping station, $1.9 million for a reservoir and $50,000 for well decommissioning. Upgrading the current groundwater system at an estimated cost of $6.9 million is broken down into $2.5 million to build two wells, pipelines, watermains and monitoring systems; $2.9 million to upgrade the Crediton booster station and pipelines and $150,000 for property, improvements and wellhead protection. Burns told council how either option would impact individual property owners, based on his estimation the municipality may be able to get a $1.8 million provincial grant and 20 -year loan. Individuals must share the capital costs of construction plus maintenance and water. For the upgrading option; individual residential costs could increase to $270 annually from the $185 currently charged. For the lake water pipeline option, costs could increase to $340 annually from $185. Commercial property owners could pay between $500 and $625 for either option respectively from the current $340 per year. Large industrial properties may be required to pay up to $208,000 to $260,000 from the current $142,000 annually. In related water news, South Huron Council passed a motion Nov. 3 to accept funding of $400,000 from the Exeter Community Development Fund Committee for capital outlay for installation of water metering in Exeter. County council has inaugural meeting Huron County council held its inaugural session on Tuesday, swearing in new councillors for the 2004-06 term, including Warden Bill Dowson. Dowson (South Huron) was acclaimed to the warden position after former warden Dave Urlin (Bluewater) pulled his name out of running for the upcoming term. "I feel pretty good about it," Dowson said. "I didn't want it (the warden's position) to be a two-year term. It's a position that no one can walk off the street and get." Urlin announced his decision not to continue in the vote for warden at county council's Nov. 26 meeting after he discovered there may be a tie in support between himself and Dowson. Urlin also reminded council of their accomplishments in their last term, which included forest conservation, smoking and nutrient management bylaws. Six new council members were sworn in yesterday including Central Huron Deputy Reeve John Bezaire, Howick Reeve Rosemary Rognvaldson, Morris- Turnberry Mayor Dorothy Kelly, Huron East Mayor Joseph Seili and a councillor'at large for South Huron. Council said goodbye to Diane Denomme (Bluewater), Joe Hogan (South Huron), Norman Fairies (Howick), Carol Mitchell (Central Huron), Keith Johnston (Morris- Turnberry) and Lin Steffler (Huron East), who attended their final meeting last week. Ben Van Diepenbeek (Ashfield-Colborne-Wawanosh), Neil Rintoul (Ashfield-Colborne-Wawanosh), Dowson, Paul Klopp (Bluewater), Bert Dykstra (Central Huron), Deb Shewfelt (Goderich), Ellen Connelly (Goderich), Bernie MacLellan (Huron East), Doug Layton (North Huron), Murray Scott (North Huron), Rob Morley (South Huron) and Urlin will be returning to council for another term.
