Times-Advocate, 1983-12-07, Page 11R Page 10 Times -Advocate, December 7, 1983 Hay asked to consider expansion, long-term leasing of Iandfifl site Zurich councillor Bob Fisher attended Hay township's first daytime meeting of the winter to discuss the landfill site shared by the two municipalities. Both councils agree they would rather continue the present arrangement than take part in a large dump us- ed by a number of area municipalities. The present site is close and convenient, whereas par- ticipation in a joint landfill site would be costly, there would be added ex for garbage pickup and garbage would have to be sorted. Fisher suggested expansion and long-term use of the pre- sent site leased from Mrs. Anastasia Martens. He had talked to Mrs. Martens, who is agreeable to signing a 20 or 25 -year lease. Reeve Lionel Wilder agreed A HELPING HAND — Zurich postmaster Murray McAdams helps Sonya Shantz tape a stencil to the outside of the post office window in preparation for painting the inside of the pane. Pupils paint the town Zurich school children are painting the town some of it, at least. Spurred on by a suggestion from the federal post office, to postmasters across Canada to invite students to decorate their windows for Christmas, pupils from St. Boniface ana St. Peter's Lutheran Church REV.

Everyone Welcome Zurich Public Schools set to with enthusiasm. St. Boniface grade eighters were first on the scene, cover- ing three of the windows and the inner doors of the Zurich post office with angels and nativity scenes. Art teacher Marg Souplat showed the students how to dip first into a combination of liquid detergent and water, then into the tempera powder. Adding detergent will make the task of removing the paint from the windows - and the painters' clothing - much easier. It was the turn of Zurich Public School a few days later. Working from drawings produced by grades five and six, about 30 grade eight and grade seven students fanned out to cover the remaining windows and outer doors of the post office, the inner doors of the municipal offices, and the windows of the village paper with candles, holly and poinsettias. Those assigned to decorate the outer doors of the post of- fice had the most difficult task. They finally put a sign on the outside reading "please knock" so they would have a moment's warning before thL busiest doors in town opened for the ump- teenth time. Zurich postmaster Murray McAdam said he and his staff had received many favourable comments about the Christmas artwork. Because of a light -deflecting microfilm coating on the win- dows, the scenes show to best advantage in daytime from the inside, and McAdam will leave more interior lights on at night to illuminate the pic- tures after dark. • McAdam pointed out the federal authorities offered on- ly encouragement. The students' reward was their personal satisfaction in a job well done. "Besides, this is better than sitting in math class", one young artist was overheard to remark. CHRISTMAS BEST GIFT GOING!

His only concern is the impression he received from a ministry of the environment official at the joint meeting a month ago in Crediton that the ministry is much more likely to authorize grants when the municipality owns rather than leases its site. Clerk Joan Ducharme was asked L. set up a meeting among Ilay and Zurich coun- cillors and Burns Ross' con- sultants. All aspects of expan- sion and a long-term lease to enable usage of the present waste disposal site to continue for at least another 20 years will be examined then. Councillor John Elder and Reeve Wilder reported on a Dashwood area fire board meeting they had attended. The fire department is losing money, and had a deficit of 81,259.87 last year. Hay township has been paying a yearly retainer of 81,300, while Stephen township pays three mills of the assessment in the area covered by the board. If Hay had done the same, the amount of the re- tainer would have been 81,566.17 based on the 1982 assessment for 1983 taxes. Council decided to leave the retainer at 81,300 for 1983, and compute what three mills would be when the clerk receives this year's assess- ment. Wilder said the 1984 budget should be based on 1983's assessment. After attending a Zurich area fire board meeting, councillors Claire Deichert and John Elder said the board is within its budget, and has received delivery of 16 new helmets and shields at a cost of 865 each. Two of the three suppliers of this type of equip- ment have recently lost their accreditation; Zurich was for- tunate enough to have ordered from the third firm. John Elder said the Dashwood recreation com- mittee has had a good year. All but one of the 14 teams us- ing the facilities has paid its 875 per team user fees. One team complained of uncut grass and an =dragged dia- mond, but played anyway. The committee passed a motion to invite team cap- tains to a spring meeting and show them how the user fees were spent to upgrade diamonds, repair and replace bleachers, and other necessary expenditures. The committee headed by Don Beauchamp to build a new ball diamond is waiting, for formal approval in writing from the president of the Zurich and area agricultural society before it can take any further steps, or make ap- plication for grants. Deichert will try to arrange a meeting of the society as soon as possible. Wilder said the Huron Farm Safety Association will be conducting a poster contest through the schools in the county. Entries will be divid- ed into four classes: under nine, nine to 15, 15 to 19 and over 19, with three prizes in each ca''gory. The winning posters will be put up in schools, ag offices and municipal buildings in the county. Road superintendent Ross Fisher presented a mini- budget effective until the end of the year. Only 82,721 of the estimated 818,000 snow removal budget has been us- ed by the end of November. However, Fisher said one month of heavy snowfall could soon eat up 810,000. The savings were used for gravel and calcium. Council hopes to include paving the five -mile stretch of concession 12-13 between highways 83 and 84 with tar and chip next year at a cost of 815,000 per mile. Ministry grants would cover at least 50 percent of the cost. Councillor Murray Keys, drain commissioner for the Aldsworth drain, expressed his dissatisfaction with the work done so far. He feels the contractors have removed too many trees along the ditch bank, leaving it more vulnerable to erosion. Beavers have added to the problem by building bigger and better dams with the fell- ed trees. After checking the work, the county engineer said one can't clean up a mess without making one; he was satisfied with the work. Wilder left the meeting to phone Tom Prout at the Ansable-Bayfield Conserva- tion Authority to ask him to arrange immediate trapping and removal of the beaver. A tile drainage loan of 820,000 for lot 19, concession 12 was denied because of an in- sufficient outlet. The owner will be asked to supply a map showing a proper outlet. Victor Brisson attended council to request a change in the working of a bylaw per- taining to the Nat Cantin sub- division at St. Joseph. He wants one clause changed from "single family dwell- ing" to "multiple and/or single family dwellings." Wilder did not object, but said Brisson must first apply to the Huron County zoning office to obtain approval TASTY -NU BREAD TOP QUALITY ALWAYS FRESH NO .41151/1.• Artificial Preservatives HALF PRICE SUPER BAKERY BUYS CRUSTY ROLLS 69C DOZEN Loa - 2 DOZEN PER CL1Siouta MINCEMEAT or BUTTER TARTS 6 :o# 1.49 HAVARTI BUTTER CHEESE 2.991.8 ONION & PARSLEY CHEESE 2.79 LB SULTANA RAISINS 99C LB GLAZED PINEAPPLE It ATURAL *EDGES) 1.99 LB CHEESE GIFT BASKETS•CIEESE TRAYS•PARTY TRAYS *DELUXE FRUITCAKES•DINNER ROLLS °BULK SNACKS and BAKING SUPPLIES° over 60 varieties o' Canadian & Imported Cheese 1 Tastyt u OVER 40 KINDS OF Bakery &Cheese House y � DELICIOUS EXETER ZURICH SEAFORTH \2354:032 2364012 ser -tem 6 DAYS DONUTS Special Prices in Effect from 9 a.m. Wednesday Dec. 7th Until Closing Tues., Dec. 13 Except Produce Which Expires Sat.
