But, Egmondville residents may not actually be receiving their mail there. The Egmondville community is being asked to choose between receiving mail at the Mini Storage building and community mailboxes at Elizabeth Park on Bayfield Street for free delivery. Huron County council is sending a letter to the Ministry of Transportation Ontario that is paved with good intentions. That decision came Thursday morning fol- lowing a presentation from Huron East's deputy mayor, Bernie MacLellan. MacLellan asked council to write a letter in support of Huron East's request to have MTO fix the stretch of Highway 8 from Seaforth and Mitchell as it is in dire need of repair. With the purchase of a $125,000 parcel of land from Evelyn Querengesser, Seaforth may have solved its water problems. Tenders have gone out for the drilling of a production well on the site, which must still be tested for quality and quantity, says Huron East Administrator Jack McLachlan. If tests are favorable on the Querengesser ,site, a second back-up well could also be drilled at the same site, closing down the need for the Welsh St. well which currently -,tea. ��+.r.e7gww•- .� .a^a.•�i-y+ �*!' � A " 119 411141 1416111111111 41t11444/1;14‘ 11IO14IPSON URETHANE SPRAY A: l� IBREG LASS INSULATION Free Estiliiotec, Call Ron At 519-263-2319 1• SCHOONDERWOERD - BROS.

A 20 -acre parcel of industrial land has been purchased by Huron East for $125,000 at the end of Railway Street. Originally owned by Ray Consitt, the parcel was bought by Dan Lambert, of Sun North and sold to Huron East. It wasn't until Carol Leeming began learn- ing about renewable power and wind energy through an agriculture leadership course in Guelph that she, along with her husband Bob, started to seriously consider putting up a wind turbine on their Front Road farm near Seaforth. Now, roughly three months since the 40 - metre high tower was erected, the Leemings couldn't be happier with their decision and hope more farmers across the province will follow their lead. In the wake of two North American school shootings, Central Huron Secondary School (CHSS) held a "code red" drill last week to prepare staff and students for the possibility of an armed intruder. While the code red plan has been part of the Avon Maitland District School Board's stan- dard operating procedures since the Taber, Alta., school shooting in 1999, principal Herb Klassen said the drill was a first for CHSS.
