County plan nears approval despite objections from Goderich
HURON COUNTY- "We're rolling along again. Eh?"
That was how Huron County Warden Jack Coleman described the
whirlwind'sitting Qf Huron County Council on Thursday.
The county reeves took .their seats at 9 a.m. and by nearly 10:30 a.m..
thc business of the dc!• was complete aside from cookies. coffees and O'
Canada.
• The only point that raised any prolonged discussion at the meeting was
a non -agenda item proposed by Reeve Robin Dunbar of Grey Township
concerning restructuring. •
Dunbar does not support a one -tier system of government for the
county, and asked council to make a two-tier system the only topic of dis-
cussion in future restructuring talks. Council did not agree.
Libraries get by with a little help from their friends
With government dollars shrinking, some libraries in Huron County are.
looking to their friends to help make ends meet.
Last month. the county's Library Board reported Friends of the Library
groups in Wingham. Exeter and Goderich had helped their libraries with
sonic needed funds. • , - .
In Wingham, receipts from a .book sale. grocery tapes. program legs and
donations amounted to 51,565. i
'The money was used to offset the cost of library supplies. adopt -a-
magazine subscriptions and program expenditure! -•
County Plan nears approval despite Goderich objection
Despite some objections from Goderich town council, Huron County is
pushing forward with its new official plan. .
The province recently extended an approval deadline and Huron County
now has until Sept. 30 to complete its new official plan. The plan was to
be finished by Dec. 31. 1997. but the province extended that deadline for
the Counties of Huron, Wellington and the united counties of Prescott and
Russell.
The Planning and Development Committee intends to recommend ap-
proval of the Huron official plan at its next meeting May 19. The docu-
ment would then be brought 'forward for approval by county council on
June 4.

Goderieli wants to put the process on hold until the current draft of thc
phin is strengthened lo address issues concerning watershed management,
the importance of industry/manufacturing. protection front fringe develop-
-rnent and protection of downtowns..
Goderich Mayor Deb Shcwfelt said his council wants the county to take
a leading role in watershed management.
Goderich recently sent a letter to the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and
Housing requesting a. meeting to get the ministry's view on the watershed
n'tanagelneni•issue -- specifically. whether or not the county's plan is suf-
ficient to address the concerns of the town.
'clic letter requests representatives from the Ministry of Municipal Af-
fairs and Housing. the Ministry of Environment. the Ministry of Natural
Resources and OMAFRA,attend the meeting.
"You need something. strong. in the official plan to deal with the problem
along the lakeshore. or 20 years from now. you won't have tourism in-
dustry." said Shewfdt.
