Seaforth firefighters battle spot fires where a St. Columban house fire flared up a second time on Friday afternoon after fight-
ing the fire from 2 to 9 a.m. the first time.
Vacant St. Columban house gutted by fire
Aaron Jack 1 i n
Fire crews were called to a vacant house in St.
Columban at 2 a.m. last Friday.
"There were visible flames shooting out the back win-
dows," said Marty Bedard, Huron East fire chief and
CEMC.
Neighbour John Kroonen was getting home from
work when he saw the fire.
"I thought it was kids setting off
fire crackers at first," said Kroonen,
who lives nearby.
When he looked closer and real-
ized it was a fire, he called it in.
"I'd barely said `fire' when they
asked where I was," he said.

He answered and was told that someone had already
called and crews were on their way.
Crews left around 9 a.m., only to be called back that
afternoon when a hot spot flared up again.
"The fire got up underneath the soffit and fascia
boards and asphalt shingles," said Bedard at the scene,
explaining that it's difficult to get the fire completely
out when that happens.
Firefighters were there for just under two hours the
second time.
The house is gutted by fire.
Bedard said the fire started in the kitchen in the back
of the house, but that it will be difficult to determine
the cause.
"The back end is all burnt," Bedard said. "Being a
vacant house, nobody was in there so we've got nobody
to tell us what happened."
Egmondville residents asked to
commit to further study of sewers

system? I was told by a councillor that it
(installing sewers) wouldn't be in my life-
time," she said.
Seili pointed out that some councillors are
not in favour of sewers in Egmondville and
added the municipality will not be buying
back septic tanks.
"I don't know how they're going to deal with
it," he said, adding that it will be at least five
years before the payment will be required.
Another resident expressed the frustration
that residents looking at replacing their sep-
tic system won't know whether to do so or
wait for the sewers.
"If the government is serious about the
environment, why aren't they subsidizing get-
ting rid of the septic systems," he said.
One resident asked how the commuppity will
know whether faulty septic systetris are
impacting the community's health if the
municipality chooses not to go ahead with the
environmental assessment.
Deputy -Mayor Bernie MacLellan said
Egmondville has to look at the issue as a com-
munity.
"If you can't get your neighbour to fix his
septic system, you might be in favour (of sew-
ers)," he said.
"We have anecdotal evidence that it's not
the case that everyone has perfectly -working
systems," added Potter.
Seili said council will decide on what direc-
tion to go based on the majority opinion of
surveys returned to town hall by May 1, coun-
cil's next meeting.
