• County tryingto
close roads while
under construction
Cheryl Heath
Huron County council is
giving the thumbs up to a
motion that will see coun-
ty roads close when con-
struction is under way
with an important two-
word caveat: when possi-
ble.
Councillors approved a
motion put forth by the
Planning, Agriculture and
Public Works Committee
that will see roads that
are under construction
closed to traffic.
The committee is stress-
ing the "when possible"
clause, said chairman
Bert Dykstra (Central
Huron).
Warden Rob Morley
said the change will both
save the county money
and protect construction
workers.
Coun. Joe Seili (Huron
East) said the current
practice is not working
because projects are not
getting completed in a
timely fashion.
"What we're doing now
is ridiculous," he says.
"The work doesn't get
done."
Meanwhile, the county
engineer reported provid-
ing a safe work environ-
ment and quality service,
along with saving money,
are the keys to good man-
agement.
Don Pletch reported the
move will save the county
up to $200,000 a year and
it will allow work to get
done faster.
Trees count
While hearing a
Planning, Agriculture and
Public Works committee
report on the county's
plans for tree harvesting
on the Stevenson tract,
Coun. Deb Shewfelt
(Goderich) asked whether
the county is planting
trees.
Coun. Ben Van
Diepenbeek (ACW)
reports the Maitland
Valley Conservation Area
reforests 100 acres every
year.
"There's a lot of refor-
estation going on," he
said, adding the harvest-
ing is only aimed at thin-
ning out the bush.
