County receives six per

in. budget
increase

eluded in the hospital reserve fund for the
Seaforth Public Hospital. The grant will be
set aside for each of the, next four years
with the last two years provisional on the
approval of 'the new council.
Council itself was subject to a budget cut •
with the overall •committee pay for coup-
cillors reduced by $4,880. According to
Warden Brian McBurney, the reduction in
committee pa34 was possible by making a
clearer distinction between committee pay •
for a hall day or a' whole day. A full day.
pay is now.defined as three hours or more
of meeting time.
Stanley Township Reeve Clarence. Rau
said a number 'of the committees start-'
anywhere between 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.
and, after lunch, meet for 'another hour
and consider it a full day meeting. He
recommended that, with a bit of effort on
.the_.,part3f the committee members, he
said the meeting could start earlier and be .
classified as half day meetings. •
"There's no reason why meetings can't
start at 9:a.m., end at 12'or 12:30 p.rn., and
be considered a half day meeting," he
said.
Goderich Reeve Harry Worsell said he,:
because he lives in town, could be at the
committee meetings by 0.am., but he said
other council members in the country
would have a difficult.time arriving at the
• early morning meetings on time.
I, don't know how •you can cut ,(the
meetings) down," he said.
Mr. Rau said a number of farmersliave
now turned to cash cropping which has cut
back on. the amount of time required to
work in the mornings.
A number of 'councillors brought up the
suggestion of having evening meetings.
Zurich Reeve Robert Fisher suggested
that evening meetings said a number of
people in his municipality would be more
willing to run for reeve if the meeting were
in the evenings. .
"I believe a lot of thought should be
given to night rbeetings," he said.
Tuckersmith Reeve Bob Bell said the
decision on whether to move to night
meetings should be left up to the executive'
committee. However, he didn't support
night meetings as he •felt it would not only
be a long day for councillors, but for coun-
ty staff. .
A sore spot in the budget was the inclu-
sion of the 30,000 county share for a $60,000
Waste Management Study in the county
with the provincial picking up $30,000 of
the total. The study was passed last year

by council to investigate the life of current
landfill• sites in the county and to, find
where future landfill sites could be located •
in the county. .•
• Reeve Bill Mickle said tile study would,
be redundant in some areas of the county
• as studies have been done with,concern to .
the landfill sites. ' •
"The municipalities' could supply this in-,
formation to the county and it' could save
us a lot of money,"•he said.. •••
He also stressed that the county coun-
• cillors should have a clear understanding
of the situation, as the Municipal Act cur
rently states that regional . and govern-,
ments do not have the.authnrity to initiate
ivastc Management -Studies. ,
Our particular. position, unless the Act
has been changed in the last month or two,
we don"t have the authority," he said, ad-
ding
that the 'county should be on solid
ground before budgetting the money.
Bayfield Reeve Dave Johnston, who is a •
member of -the Waste manaWe?MiTt om-
mittee,.said in a meeting ,With the Minister .
of the Environment last year, the minister
granted a waiver allowing the county to go
ahead wi h the waste management study.
HuM Township Reeve • Torn Cunn-
ingham said that although he is not -in
favor of the study, the decision was made
last fall to gd ahead with the study last fall.
He said it was time to end the discussion
on the project and "get on with it". • The
road budget, which allowed $300,000 for re-
surfacing roads in•the county, was under
scrutiny by Exeter Deputy Reeve, Lossy
Fuller pho questions why budget cuts
could not be made in his area.
Colborne Reeve Plisse Kernighan said
the Road Depart, ,t has fallen behind in
its road re -surfacing and it has come to a
point were if some roads aren't re-
surfaced this year, they will have to be
completely re -constructed. .,
"To ',deviate from the road re -surfacing ^M
program would put us at risk," he said.
Hullett Reeve concurred with Mr. Ker-
nighan saying that the county would be
hurt financially in the long run by not re-
surfacing some roads this year.
In other budget cuts, the computer
capital fund for an update of a computer
terminal was cut by $5,000; the paving of
the • library building parking lots was
reduced by $4,000; Educational grants
were rediiced by $6,000, the Children's Aid
Society was reduced by $6,604; Patriotic
grants were reduced by $1,500;
Agricultural grants were reduced by $1,000 .
and the Emergency Planning grant was
reduced by $5,000.

HUMAN LIVES RECLAIMED
Although he agreed council and citizens
have legitimate concerns about security at
Bluewater, •DeGrandis warned campaigns
to turn the the centre into a, fortress,
"which gives people no hope" are not the
answer.
"Remember, there are human lives be-
ing reclaimed there every day. It's almost
paradoxal that some of c,ur programs have
been • so 'successful, with some of the
human tragedy that's there. It isn't an in-
stitition that should' be thought of in entire-
' ly negative terms. , There are human be-
ings out -there and they are being helped."
he said.
Deputy Reeve Doherty, who has had an
opportunity to tour the facility, indicated
he felt it was possible to go too far in the
opposite direction as well.
'•I tell you, if 1' was a teenager with
nothing to do, I'd much rather break into
that place, than break out," Doherty
stated.
Following the discussion, council agreed
to accept an invitation to blur the centre
and discuss security procedures in more
detail.
