"Over the last couple of years, we've worked hard to improve the healthcare situation in Huron East and with discussion- with our community partners, this is the next step for- ward in ensuring good healthcare in Huron East," he told council before the motion was read. MacLellan said Huron East planned to build or take over the operation where the family health team is located. "The clinic belongs to the community and we would have a hard time justifying buying back a building the community already owns," he said in response to a question of whether or not the town is considering buying the clinic building. MacLellan said the town and the communi- ty trust may form a corporation to run the FHT building and will be meeting soon to look over architect's drawings within the week. "The family health team is very much in favour of this.

MacLellan said Huron East is putting the issue of a facility for the family health team "on the front burner." "We want to make sure we do what we can for the doctors and we don't want to miss another doctor passing by. The process is underway as of right now," he said. Mayor Joe Seili, who is also vice -chair of the Huron Family Health Team's board, said while it's not yet been determined how much a facility will cost for the FHT, the funding will come from the municipality and the trust since with FHTs, the province pays for oper- ating expenses, not for bricks and mortar. He added that because the province will pay to lease space, the municipality and the trust will earn rental income on any facility they build. Seili pointed out that the Seaforth trust has experience as a landlord with the Seaforth post office and the Community Care Access Centre building. "Rural areas have always been involved in doctor recruitment and healthcare. It's a big issue for rural people and we have to be involved in it," said Seili. MTO plans to reconstruct Highway 8 between Mitchell and Seaforth by 2009 or 2010, says deputy -mayor Susan H u n d e r t m a r k While the Ministry of Transportation does not plan to fix the current patch job on Highway 8 between Seaforth and Mitchell, that section of road will be reconstructed by 2009 or 2010, Huron East council was told at its Jan. 9 meeting. Deputy -Mayor Bernie MacLellan, who rode with MTO officials and West Perth Mayor John Van Bakel as they toured the highway recent- ly, said the MTO officials were not concerned about the current condi- tion of the road. "Their statement is there isn't a safety hazard," MacLellan told council. He added, however, that he thought that if council wanted to "put up a huge stink,," the MTO would come back and repatch the highway. "But, they said the $100,000 to do that was a waste of money in their opinion," he said. Seaforth Coun. Joe Steffler dis- agreed that the road is safe. "Talk to the people who drive it every day," he said, adding he'd like to see the reconstruction project started sooner. MacLellan responded that the project has begun since an environ- mental study has started and pre- liminary designs have been made. "It takes at least two years to get the work started," said MacLellan. Proposed improvements in a let- ter to council included reconstruct- ing the existing driving surface and widening the width from 6.7 metres to 7.5 metres with 2.5 metre shoul- ders. The road work will include the section through St. Columban and the rehabilitation of Silver Creek bridge. MacLellan said the MTO is con- cerned about snow drifting across the highway west of St. Columban and may try to change the contour of the land or put up trees or hedges in that section. The MTO sent Huron East four sets of -preliminary drawings and asked for a response by Jan. 24.
