Security on undeveloped land may be postponed by ACW council
BY DENNY SCO'T'T
Signal -Star Staff
Ashfield-Colborne-Wawanosh was
faced with a bylaw to temporarily post-
pone the posting of security on undevel-
oped land owned by Reeve Ben Van
Diepenbeek. •
The request was a continuance from a
previous meeting, and the bylaw was
brought forward on Oct. 6.
This will see the development agree-
ment between Reeve Ben Van'.
Diepenbeek and the township amended
to have the current security postponed
until he can develop the lots.
The Reeve has agreed that the securi-
ty must be posted prior to the develop-
ment of the land.
Council deferred the bylaw until more
information about similar situations can
be investigated.
In The Lucknow Sentinel for Sept. 30,
in the article pertaining to Reeve Van
Diepenbeek, he asked council for
release of security deposit, should have
read that security payments would be
postponed, not returned.
Greenhills Cemetery
Ashfield-Colborne-Wawanosh
Township Council received an in -cam-
era report on Greenhills Cemetery in
Lucknow, which was recently placed on
the real estate market.
Council has decided not to commit
themselves to any actions at this time.
In the LucknowSentinel, on Sept. 30,
the headline regarding this issue; "ACW
Twp. council considering cemetery pur-
chase," may have been misleading, as
council. was considering the cemetery's
future, not necessarily considering pur-
chasing it.
Mike McElhone, a cottage -resident of
Ashfield-Colborne-Wawanosh,
addressed ACW council on Oct. 6, and
his message was clear; local river water
isn't safe.
Citing several results in which local
rivers tested over the safe amount of
E.Coli, he indicated that water quality is
continuously dropping, especially after
heavy rains, .and that crude testing
methods are ineffective; they need new
ways of telling if the water is safe.

gests; don't swim in water if you can't
see your feet in three feet of water, isn't
accurate. I found that if people went
swimming in clear water and considered
it safe, they would be wrong 23 per cent
of the time, and if they didn't go swim-
ming due to murky water, they would be
wrong 45 per cent of the time."
McElhone suggests that, for the safe-
ty of the lakefront community, a system
be adopted that some towns use on the
state -side of the Great Lakes.
These systems tests the water and
provide results nearly immediately.
However, costing $20,000 per location
for equipment, it could be a costly
expenditure.
"I'm not suggesting we put one of
these systems at every beach, but maybe
one at Bayfield and one at Goderich,"
he said. "If their tests are bad, that can
be an indicator for other beaches."
Other results McElhone presented
showed that rain -water severely agitates
E. Coli levels, making them raise up to
47 times what they are normally.
Nine Mile Ricer
Tom Orr, a part-time resident of
Ashfield-Colborne-Wawanosli, is con-
cerned with erosion around - the Nine
Mile River, and visited council on Oct.
3 to discuss the problem.
According to Orr, the problem has
plagued the area around the river for 40
years.
"Our problem goes back many years,"
he said. 'In 1979, Maitland :Valley
Conservation Authority did some :stud-
ies on Nile River on erosion problems,
but there were no permanent solutions."
Originally, the river suffered from
flooding problems, ice blockage would
cause backups at the beginning and end
of winter, and it would flood low-lying
cottages.
"We've been trying to solve this prob-
lem for 30 years, and in the late seven-
ties and early eighties, we did find a
way to help it," Orr said. "We created
berms in the lake to provide steady
flow, but it was a temporary solution.
The problem was compounded,
according to Orr, when a new bridge
was installed over the Nine Mile River
near Port Albert.
"[The bridge] causes the river. to .go
south instead of north," Orr said. "And
it has taken out a bank. The river has
eroded 20 feet this year alone."
Orr said that tofind a solution, they
first need . to do a study, and was
requesting assistance from ACW coun-
cil. The tests necessary will cost
approximately $15,000.
ACW Council pledged $5000 to the
cause, and also suggested which groups
they could approach to help them reach
their $15,000 goal.
