Zonin bylaw to be established
By Anne Narejko
BLYTH - In order to enforce the village's
secondary plan, a zoning bylaw must be in
place. The village does not have a com-
prehensive bylaw to back-up the 1979 plan
but council, with the assistance of Cindy
Fisher of the Huron County Planning
Department, is now taking steps to establish
the required bylaw.
Miss Fisher assists the villages of Blyth
and Bayfield as well as the townships of Col-
bornel Stanley, Goderich and West
Wawanosh and the Town of Seaforth with
their planning needs.
At Blyth Council's April 9 meeting, Miss
Fisher advised council that they should
review their five-year-old secondary plan
before proceeding with the zoning bylaw.
Her reasons for suggesting this were many.
The first reason for Miss Fisher wanting
to postpone the zoning bylaw until later in
the year was the fall election. With the elec-
tion comes the possibility of a change in
council members, and also because the pro-
posed bylaw "will take a lot of meeting
because every property in the village has to
be looked at."
Other reasons are to educate council
members as to what the secondary plan
does, plus the review will make the zoning
bylaw process easier as changes and addi-
tions can be made. Another reason is the
plan should be reviewed every five years so
it can be amended as the village needs re-
quire it.
The meeting date of April 23 at 7:30 p.m.
has been set so council can go over the pro-
posed mapping of the flood plan with Miss
Fisher and Phil Beard, Resource Planning
Co-ordinator with the Maitland Valley Con-
servation Authority.
Summer student
Each of the Huron County planners have
the assistance of a summer student to help
with their municipalities. At the April 9
meeting, Miss Fisher asked council if they
would be willing to sponsor a student to help
work on the zoning bylaw for three weeks.
Since it is a government program, the pro-
vince will pay 75 per cent of the costs with
the, municipality picking up the remaining
25 per cent. The cost to the village would be
$81 per week plus mileage from Goderich.
"If it helps assist with the work involved,
there seems to be no reason why we
shouldn't take advantage of it," commented
Councillor Bill Manning.
Miss Fisher also told council the student
working in West Wawonash could be called
in if they find the village needs more than
three weeks.
1985 levy
Blyth has been asked to pay a 7.06 per cent
increase on their 1985 Huron County levy,
bringing the total levy to $39,062.
The levy is broken down in two alk
categories; general and highways. The NW
general levy totals $18,804, up $4,363 from
the 1984 figure. The highway levy is $20,258,
up $368 from last year. Clerk Larry Walsh
noted the village will receive a 45 per cent
rebate from the county for the highway
levy. This year's rebate will be $9,116.10, an
increase of $165.60 from last year's $8,950.50.
Hensall has been assessed the highest
levy of the five villages in Huron County, be-
ing asked to pay $82,835. Bayfield is the se-
cond highest with $58,322, Blyth is third with
$39,062. Brussels' 1985 levy is $708 less than
Blyth's, as they will pay $38,354. Zurich's
assessment is $30,641.
Council will pay $15,614 towards sewage deficit
money, and if there was a major break
down, we'd have to pay for it," explained
Clerk Walsh.
Councillor Bill Manning suggested council
forward a set amount to the ministry and
put the remaining funds into a long term in-
vestment which would reduce the interest
spread between the amount the village is.
paying the ministry and the amount the
village is receiving on the reserve fund.
Council members decided to pay the $614
which they would be short in payment, and
an addition $15,000 to reduce the deficit and
the interest. Clerk Walsh is to look into
reducing the interest spread with a one year
investment.
By Anne Narejko
BLYTH - To reduce the sewage system's
accumulated deficit of $89,273, council will
dip into the reserve fund and pay $15,614 to
the Ministry of Environment.
Ministry representatives Zack El
Ramedy, Mark Bell, Wayne Rouse and
Henry Rouw met with Clerk Larry. Walsh on
March 19 to review the operations of the
sewage system. During the meeting, it was
pointed out that the actual 1985 costs were
$83,203, but Blyth was only paying $82,589
which would mean that the village will be
short $614 in payment at the end of the year.
. Also during this meeting, Mr. El Ramedy
suggested that council put a portion of their
ible
$50,000 reserve fund towards payment to the
ministry as this would reduce the interest
charges. Clerk Walsh explained to council
that they are paying 14.66 per cent interest
or $12,000 per. year and receiving between
eight to nine per cent interest on the money
in the reserve fund.
Earlier this year, council decided not to
put the entire $50,000 towards reducing the
deficit and interest because they felt there
was a possibility of the five) per cent rate
restraints being lifted.
"Two years ago we were hit with a large
increase but this year they were on
restraints. What happens if the restraints
are lifted next year? We would have no
doesn't demean women
The Blyth 1J.C.W. Sunshine Unit met on
April 11 at which Nicolena Aitken and Marj.
East conducted a worship service based on
a passage of scripture read by - Marj. in
which Paul states the rank of women in rela-
tion to their husbands and their home.
Nick's story stated that there is no
Biblical proof that women should be de-
meaned. Jesus' attitude and treatment -of l
women was the beginning of a new regard
for them, and from his time, the liberation
of women has slowly progressed. •
011ie Craig)s Study was a fascinating one,
the Shroud/of Turin as recorded in April's
Readers ' Digest, 1984. Much scientific
research has taken place trying to deter-
mine whether this particular shroud is the
one found in the tomb where Jesus was laid.
Co -leader Mary Walden, asked for the roll
call which was answered by a verse from
Proverbs. Interest ran so high that some re-
quested that they be permitted to read more
than one verse. Twenty-five leadies
answered.

TheBlyth U.C.W. spring Thankoffering
service held on April.14 was one with a dif-
ference. To take the place of a guest
speaker, the Executive voted to invite the
C.H.S.S. -choir and ensemble to present the
program.
Blyth United Church has a personal in-.
terest in this organization. Three current
members of C.H.S.S. choir are • Heather
Bauman,. Julie Howson and Heather
McDonald who sing in the Blyth choir.
The executive deemed this a suitable time
to offer a little financial support for the 1986
tour to Europe of the C.H.S.S. ,choir and
band to show appreciation for the'
outstanding work of this school's Music
Department:. its head, Robert Parr; choir
conductor, Louise McGregor; pianist Rox-
anne Martin; and the choir itself. Therefore,.
part of the Thankoffering givings at this ser-
vice are going towards the 1986 tour project.
Some of .the features? of this choir that
delighted the audience comprised of large
numbers of U.C.W. from Auburn, Belgrave,
Calvin Brick and Walton as well as many
from Blyth were: the beautiful blending of
the 35 voices, eight of them male; the ex-
pressive portrayal of the gospel message
brought about by good diction and expert
control of crescendos and d menuendos, and
the healthy happy appearance of these
young singers. No doubt about it - they love
to sing.
Joanne Bauman introduced the choir, and
Susan Howson included appreciation to
organist Margaret Kai; to Mary Wightman
and June Peck for their meditation:.
Thoughts on Easter; for • those who
transported the choir and for ushers and
greeters: Barbara Musty, Joan Clark, Mary.
Walden and Ferne McDowell.
Those who walld like to hear the entire
C.H.S.S. choir membership in action Isome

tending their annual Spring Concert in
