News Council questions need for new $5,768 postage machine Su8an Hundertmark The need to buy a new dig- ital $5,768.14 postage machine when $1,500 is still owing on a rental agreement for the present postage meter is almost enough to make Huron East council "go postal." "Can we send the bill to Canada Post?" asked Tuckersmith Coun. Larry McGrath at council's Nov. 7 meeting. "What kind of assurance do we have from Canada Post that we're not going to have to buy another new machine?" asked Deputy- Mayor Bernie MacLellan. Clerk -Administrator Jack McLachlan told council the municipality has known since spring that Canada Post will no longer accept postage meters after Dec. 31 that are not fully compliant with new high security, digital indicia and product capture require- ments. Because of the timing, Huron East will have to also pay $1,500 for the six-month balance of the present postage meter's rental agree- ment. McLachlan said the present machine was "state of the art" when Huron East began leas- ing it four and a half years ago. Seaforth Coun. Joe Steffler asked what would happen if Huron East didn't go by Canada Post's rules. "Would they not process your letter?" he asked. "They're saying no," said McLachlan. MacLellan said Canada Post should have let the pre- sent machine's agreement expire before demanding a new machine and suggested getting Huron -Bruce MPP Paul Steckle involved in the issue. "But, if we don't order it in two weeks, we won't have it in time," said MacLachlan. Mayor Joe Seili said the $45.95 monthly meter rental of the new postage machine will more than cover the labour costs that would be necessary if administration had to apply stamps to all of the correspondence. "I'm not sure you want to come in here and lick all those stamps," he said. • McLachlan said Huron East mails out approximately 16,000 letters a year.
