Times-Advocate, 1987-09-16, Page 7SAFE AND SOUND — Ross Gass, Hensall crossing guard, clears the way for Shawn Wurm, a Henson Public School student. Susan Hartman 262-2449 t 1111e1-/4avoeore, Jepre►nuer t 0, t 70/ Mill waste threat to landfill Limitations on the capacity of Hen- sall's landfill site may inspire the creation of a new recycling program for waste grain screenings. B.M. Ross and Associates. Limited presented to village council their an- nual inspection report on the sanitary landfill site. The report revealed.no problems with local water supplies caused by the site, but did discuss the posskOility that the site's life expec- tancyti may be shortened due to an unanticipated large amount of grain screening being dumped at the site from the local mills. The consulting engineers suggested in the report that some meeting could be arranged between the company, the mills and the village to discuss the potential of the waste for recycling. Councillor Cecil Pepper, acting as chairman of the meeting for vacation- ing Reeve Jim Robinson, told council that he had heard of projects using such waste for fuel by blowing it into furnaces; however, he noted that B.M. Ross are interested in the idea of composting the waste for later use as topsoil. B.M. Ross are willing to supply their services free of charge if nothing becomes of the suggestion. "Getting a site for setting up the composting would be the big thing," observed Councillor Butch Hoffman, because, as he pointed out, leaching from a composting site would be just as critical as a landfill site itself. Clerk -treasurer Elizabeth Oke of- fered the suggestion that the Ministry of the Environment should be con- tacted because they would likely be interested in any recycling project in light of their recent waste manage- ment program. "I think it's a good thing to look in- to," ventured Councillor Irene Davis as council resolved to contact Steve Burns of B.M. Ross and Associates to further investigate the recycling option. A bylaw was passed to allow Hen- sall council to enter into a site plan agreement with the Co -Op to develop their property on part lot 22, conces- sion 1. ' Council agreed to the Co-Op's terms that the cost of drainage for the pro- perty will be shared equally by the Village and the Co -Op. It had been originally hoped that the Co -Op would pay the entire cost, but because the one -metre drain will extend all the way to the highway it would be unfair to let any new industries in that area benefit from the Co-Op's drainage, without some municipal funding. . The anticipated cost of the drain is around $18,000. The rear -mounted grass mower presently used by the village Works Department is to be traded in for a new side -mounted model at a cost of $4,490. Works Superintendent John Baker explained fhat while there is nothing wrong with the old mower, it does not allow the tractor to mow the grass and weeds at the edge of the sewage lagoons without risk of tipp- ing the tractor into the lagoon. • Elizabeth Oke reported that as nothing had yet been spent this year from the $5,875 budgetted for the Works Department, the purchase of the mower would remain within budget. A lawyer acting for Donald Reid has asked council whether or not it in- tends to enforce the bylaw restricting Arena aerobics scheduled Now that summer is over and the kids are back at school how about tak- ing some time for yourself.

While it is true that the bylaw is not presently enforced because no signs are posted in the area, John Baker observed that many of the village's old bylaws are not enforced. Pepper added •that the village is under' no obligation to enforce a bylaw, but would refer the problem to the streets and drains committee for further discussion. Hensall's second annual Christmas Party, to be held on November 28, will witness a ticket price increase from $12 a person last year to $14 this year.
