County has request for Huron heritage reserve fund
Huron County's cultural services
and seniors committee is asking the
county to look to the future by set-
ting aside a little bit of money for
the past.
Council learned April 4, that the
committee is asking for $20,000 to
be dedicated for the county's first-
ever Huron Heritage Reserve Fund.
Museum manager Beth Ross said
the idea behind it is a simple one
•
since $20,000 wouldn't be enough to
do a lot of work.
"The intention is to see if the
whole concept has wings," she said,
noting the initial $20,000 would
assist in cost-sharing measures
with lower -tier municipalities.
By having the fund in place, the
county would also have a firm foot-
ing when applying for provincial
and federal grants on heritage -
related matters.
Ross said soliciting donations to
the fund would also be encouraged.
Warden Deb Shewfelt noted there
was some concern among cultural
services committee members that
council would axe the plan, but so
far it remains in the county's draft
budget.
Ross said the library staff will be
looking at other avenues for fund-
ing to assist with library upgrades
in communities, like Brussels which
require them.
The warden added infrastructure
funding for libraries is mentioned in
the federal budget, "but they're very
vague so I think you have to chase
them."
