pacity in its municipal landfills and have been looking for a site for a large
landfill which would service the entire county.
Fisher's motion however was tabled after Goderich's John Doherty sug-
gested that .the.concerns of the •public following a pair of recent public
meetings in Blyth and Hensall, and the numbers of approval or disapprov-
al of which they produced, be considered.
Council agreed with Doherty, delaying the new site even further but not
before several councillors made their feelings known.
Huron County had six candidate sites selected .last year, however all of

well as nearly $240.000 of taxes in
arrears.
Although the unpaid taxes, won't
influence this year's mill rate, it
:-could in 1994.
"In 1992, we put money into a
number of reserves including the
fire department for a new fire '
truck," said councillor Cane Ivey
Monday night.
The general municipal increase in
the mill rate is 3.79 percent but low-
er county and school taxes bring the
.average down slightly.
"We gained some assessment
through boundary agreement but we
lost some unconditional grants,"
said Ivey.
He added that according to the
Municipal Act, the $24.000 deficit
has to be built into the 1993 budget.
Ivey said this year's budget is ap-
propriate.

them did not meet specific criteria. Fisher said the county should urged the
MOE to take another look at one of the candidate sites in Grey Township.
"I do not feel this is the safest area we can find in Huron County. There
are many springs in that area," said Leona Armstrong of Grey Township.
Scott Metzger, Waste Management Master Plan co-ordinator said, as
part of the plan's Stage 2C, test drilling would be done in the winter on
new candidate sites.
"If this delays the process, we won't be able to make the test dates," said
Metzger.
He also indicated to coundil, that Tumberry Township's landfill is al-
ready reaching capacity, more so than the other landfills in the county.
"The longer we wait, the less capacity we have," said Metzger.
There was also a great deal of concern on Thursday over the MOE's ob-
vious tardiness in coming up with the 50% of funding for plan stage 2C
which has already been done.
"Theinitial concem of mine is the funding. This is a very expensive pro-
cess,"said Fisher.
'Hay -Township's Lionel Wilder and Hulleu Township's Tom Cunning-
ham were concerned over the MOE's delay in providing funding.
"If they make the decisions than they have to come up with the money,"
said Cunningham.
