A BLOOD DONO,,
Will hold special meeting on Monday c
to discuss changes in water system
Nick Hill, architect from
the Firm of Hill and 13orgal in
Goderich and Ray Alarie
Planning Engineer of
Conestoga -Rovers Associ-
ates were at the regular
meeting of Hensall council
Monday night to ask coun-
cil's permission to proceed
with a study of Hensall's
water system. -
. The study is to see if there
would be enough water
pressure for the village and
the proposed Reid sub-
division. .
The planners wanted
cctttncil to pay 75 percent of
the cost of such a study
which they estimated would
probably cost around $4,000.
Mr. 11111 said they had
•atteady done a study on the
water supply and storage
system for storm and
sanitary sewers. He said the
present water system could
handle 2,060 people but they
didn't know what would
happen to the water pressure
-it tire should break out at the
other end of the village.
Therrien also said that the
Ontario' Municipal Board
(OMB) has to know how
much 'pressure the water
System can handle before the
planners go ahead with their
subdivision plans.
"I think one of the
frustrations we've had is
what capacity we can handle
in the water systems of the -
village. 1 would have thought
that having invested in this
system that somewhere
along the line you'd want to
know what the system's good
tor'.'"- Mr. Hill said.
"The OAiB • and • the
Ministry of the Environment
are going to want this in -
L
tormation and I d like to 'ask
some councillors if they
think this is reasonable on a
cost sharing basis," he
added.
"What's going to happen if
they find out- there's not
enough water if there .is a
fire," councillor Bevan
ponthron asked.
Mr, Alarie said that it
could be that a few fiuks of
pipes connected to the
present water system could
he all that's necessary.
Councillor.Harry Klungels
said. "1 was just wondering
if maybe a larger pipe would
be less expensive -than a
study.
Mr. Alarie replied that
they knew how much water
they could get from the
wells but they didn't know
how • much pressure they
could get from where the
water started out to the
subdivision. lie said that the
engineers Burns -Ross
agreed that `jt would be
necessary to do the study.
, Councillor -Paul Neilands
said the Ministry of the
Environment should know
what the capicity of Hen-
sall's storage system was
and Mr. Alarie said that the
Ministry had all the records
but they wanted to know
what the distribution of the
pressure is -because. the
Canadian Underwriters say
you have to know how much
pressure you can have.
Nick Hill said that the
Huron County planner
-Homan Dzus was supposed
to have his plans in by
October and that by January
they should be able to get
into the actual planned
subdivision work.
Mr. Alarie 'said the water
system study would
probably take four to six
weeks. Councillor Harry
Klungel asked if the only .
thing they would come up
with in the
would be the
necessary to
finat analysis
siz , QI pipe
correct the
water pressure. •
"Hopefully it` (the study)
will say the system is okay."
"If you're looking 1 think
you should pay more than 25
percent of it," Councillor
Homer Campbell said.
Reeve Harold Knight -
pointed out that "Lt's pretty
awkward. Its a municipal
water system but basically
it's run by the PUC and
they're th'e ones who have all
the figures on it."
Mr. Alarie also said there
had been several sub-
divisions put in other areas
where the town's water
systems hadn't been up to
OMB standards and in such
cases it was more
economical to put in a
separate system and he said
he proposed study would also
show whether it was
necessa'y for an in-
dependent system to be
installed in the Hensall
subdivi rtni. He added that
one of the thing's they're
recommending is that the
subdivision be serviced by
two mains. . •
"I think we're overlooking
another big factor — that
we're annexing another 100
acres to the north. We're
going to need ,water there
too," Reeve Hrold Knight
said.
"There mai be an+ -ad-
vantage to the hing." I'm
just sorry the PUC aren't in
on it. Myself, personally I
would like to talk with the
PUC before 1 give my
opinion on it."
Mr. Hill asked council that
if they deemed it necessary
to go the. PUC whether they
could hold a special council
megting to discuss it. Council
decided to hold a special
meeting on September 18.
He also asked council if
they would discuss with
planner Roman Dzuz going
to the school board about an
additiop• street going past
the s lout advising the
school board of council's
position. on it, as a sup-
plement 00 the planner's
presentation to thein.
The planners wanted a
road either 10 the side of the
school or through the school
grounds because the grounds
cut oft access between the
village and the proposed
subdivision site
111r. Hill said in a phone
interview that he hoped the
school board would be
willing to trade some of their
land for an access road so
that the planners could keep
all existing roads intact but
he thought a road at the side
would be better so the
planters didn't have to go
right through the middle of
the .school grounds.
