David Lew, manager of ambulance operations, was recently presented with a Governor General's Award for Exemplary Service. County Warden Rob Morley paid tribute to Lew for achieving the distinction Thursday morning at council's monthly . session in Goderich. Morley noted when the responsibility for ambulance service was first downloaded onto the county, operations were running in a manner that raised the hackles of the province. Since Lew came on board, said Morley, Huron County has become known as one of the top ambulance - service managers in the province. "He put us on the map," said Morley, adding Lew deserves the lion's share of the credit for turning things around. • "It's a real honour," said Lew, adding the bulk of the praise on a job well done must be shared with staff and peers in the county. "I really appreciate all of your support over the last five years," he said to council. Lew was originally presented with the award at the Sept. 21 Association of Municipalities Emergency Medical Services of Ontario (AMEMSO) conference in Windsor. Relief approved Royal Canadian Legion branches within Huron County are being 1 1 0_ given another four years of relief on education and property taxes.
