Times Advocate August 12, 1987 Page 11 Lago�ns near capacWy The addition of a continuous feed system for injecting alum into Hen - sail's waste management lagoon system may be unnecessary, Hensall Town Council agreed Monday evening. The municipality is eligible for a Ministry of the Environment grant that will pay approximately 84 per- cent of the total cost of the installa- tion of the system, estimated at $40-50,000, to control phosphorus and algae in the lagoons. "It would improve our environ- ment," stated Works Superintendent John Baker, but he added that "two years down the road this system may be obsolete." The present lagoon system was designed for a population of 1,200 and with any substantial in- crease in population it may be con- sidered inadequate for the town's requirements. However, the general consensus among the councillors was that the system would likely not be expanded with the addition of a fourth lagoon. Baker agreed, "I don't think they would put in another lagoon, I think they would put in a treatment plant." Councillor Cecil Pepper replied say - PUBLIC SPEAKING This year, the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair is hosting the third pro- vincial public speaking competition for rural youth.

Council agreed to consult the Ministry toobtain more information on the future capacities of the present lagoon system, before proceeding with any•plans to add an alum feed system. Among other business discussed Monday was the notice from the Ministry of Transportation that Hen - sail has not been approved for a sup- plementary subsidy to reconstruct Mill and Wellington Streets. The municipality is hoping to manage the funding through their own funds and the existing subsidy, but hopes to app- ly for the supplementary subsidy next year with greater success. A By -Law was passed to give Hen- sall site plan control over the proper- ty added to the town from Hay township which lies on Concession 1 adjacent to the railway line. Council stated that no plans for the property, referred to as the Caldwell property, had yet been seen. The By -Law will afford tight control over any building permits issued for the property. 'Me Committee of Adjustment decided earlier that the minor variance adjustment requested by Robert and Sharon Erb to allow for an addition on their home, is not,minor because it would fall within 2.5 metres of the lot line. The required margin is 10 metres; however the Committee conceded that a minor variance would be per- missible if six metres were severed from the adjoining property owned by Robert Erb and added to the other to create a variance of 8.5 metres. Council did not support M.P.P. An- dy Brant's request for council to call upon the Provincial Government to pass legislation against vicious dogs. Reeve Jim Robinson remarked "We don't want to see unprovoked dog at- tacks, but I don't want to say we have a problem." Clerk -Treasurer Elizabeth Oke observed that "We are not supposed to petition the ministry on our own." Council agreed that any member of council was free to bring up the mat- ter by themselves at the next meeting of the Association of the Municipalities of Ontario. Works Superintendent John Baker was presented two certificates by Jim Robinson. One was for his completion of a preventive maintenance workshop with the Ministry of the En- vironment. The other was om the Construction Safety As tion of Ontario for completion of trench workers course. Councillor Peter Groot mentioned that he had been asked if there was any wav to reduce the volume on the chimes in the Town Hall tower. Robinson agreed, "Some of those tapes are pretty loud." However, the consensus was that public opinion was largely in favor of the hourly chimes. "Tell him to put in ear plugs," retored Irene Davis, as an answer to the unidentified complainant. Queeniwaj Monday, we tried something new at our exercise session. Each resident took a turn at leading their favourite exercise. Everyone had a good workout. After exercises we played charades.
