Hensall council corrects oversight in 1961 deeds
The first step in correcting
an oversight made 20 years
ago in the deeds of a Hensall
subdivision was taken by
Hensall council Monday.
Lawyer Richard Ottewell
explained the problem he
had encountered when
researching a deed for a
YorkCrescent property.
Originally he said it was.
planned to have York Street
run east to Highway 4 and
there was a road allowance
given to the village.
Since the road was never
built and ownership assumed
by the village, when the
York Crescent subdivision
was set up in 1961, York Cre-
scent was set about 35 feet
north of the original York
Street.
This allowed two 100 foot
lots in the centre of the cre-
scent andthe strbet was turn-
ed over to the village.
Ottpwell explained that
while searching the title, he
found his client on lot 25 (in
the centre of the crescent ►did
not have clear title to the
land on his front yard which
was originally planned as
York street.
When asked why this
hadn't turned up before,
Ottewell said it may have
been overlooked in the past,
and added "sometimes It
takes years for these things
to turn up".
Under the Municipal Act,
Ottewell said this was an
acceptable trade-off for the
roads. He suggested council
draw up a new by-law to
authorize the reeve and
clerk to sigff over deeds for
the extra property.
Council passed a resolu-
tion authorizing a by-law to
be drawn up to clear up the
problems on lots 6,7, and 24
to 27 of the YorkCrescent
subdivision.
Council also passed a by-
law which establishes the
Hensall Business Improve-
ment Area.
Council was told there had
beep no complaints and no
signed petitions received,
which would hold up
authorization of the by-law.
Dick Packham said he was
surprised and pleased by the
suport shown for the by-law.
Since no costs have yet
been involved. Cecil Pepper
said the lack of opposition
may just be indifference.
Reeve Paul Neilands said
he would check with the Ex-
eter BIA to see how many
representatives were re-
quired for the board of
management.
Clerk .Betty Oke said a
property :standards by-law
should be passed in conjunc-
tion with the BIA and this
would affect the whole town.
She said it could -then be
enforced by the by-law en-
forcement officer. She add-
ed a letter would be sent to a
Hensall resident asking that
rubbish on his property be
cleaned up.
Peckham said the BIA
may hold a public meeting to
explain its purpose and rally
local support.
Neilands agreed with the
idea saying that the village
ball park had been built by a supposed to dump volatile
group of interested citizens substances into the sewer
at a lower cost to the village. systems.

Towson said the pit where
the snow should be dumped,
inside the arena is not used
because too much hot water
is required to melt it away.
He suggested the snow
may be dumped at the other
end of the arena away from
the road
A request from a Kippen
area man to remove brush
and dead trees from the
dump site for firewood was
filed.
Neilands said he did not
think it was a good idea
since others would also want
to get some of the wood and
some good trees may dis-
appear too
Pepper said if anyone was
allowed to clear brush it
should be people front the
village
Setting a precedent was
also the concern when a re-
quest from the United
Church tor the village to
plow the church's parking
lot was turned down.
The church was willing to
pay tor the work.. but
Neilands suggested a com-
mercial snow plower be
