BY
LEVESQUE
Approval . has been given
for a $500,000 administration
building for the Ausable-
Bayfield Conservation
Authority. The Authority
members approved the pro-
ject at their annual meeting
in Kirkton on Feb. 17.
The 7700 square foot, two-
level building, will be con-
structed at the Morrison
Dam Conservation Area just
outside of Exeter. ABCA
general -manager Tom Prout
points out that the $500,000
cost includes -finished costs.
such as a. parking lot, fur.
nishings and. landscaping '.
and not just the cost of the
building.
At the same meeting, ap-
proval was given to sell the
present building housing the
authority on 175 Thames
Road' in Exeter. It will be
sold for about $112,000 to
Agriculture Information Ser-
vices Limitedof Exeter.
The funding from the sale
of the house, less expenses
such as legal -costs, will be
turned over tothe cost of the
new building, Mr. Prout told'
the annual meeting. He add-
ed that approval for the new
building must also come
from the Ministry of Natural
Resources.
About hall of the estimated
cost of the project will come
from grants from the.
government and $100,000 will
come from the• sale of the:
present building. Another
$100,000 will come from the
ommttee just doing its job Haydon says...
• from page 4
requests it in writing. The
Municipal Board does not
work by petitions or vague
allegations. -
The most recent public
meeting at MacKay Hall to
which all the designated
area property owners (219)
had been invited, had 57,
signed ' on ' the attendance
list; 14 were listed as Mr.
and Mrs. At least 10 were
council, planning board,
LACAC etc. members. Seven
persons spoke from the
audience, on subjects
ranging from expenses of the
Bay City exchange visits to
question whether a building
could be erected on a par-
ticular lot. Two planners, the
LACAC chairman and a.
Ministry representative
gave explanations.
At the end of the meeeting
four ° property ..owners
requested in writing that
they be excluded from the
bylaw. With this kind of
consensus the town council
expects its solicitor and
administrator to make a
case at an OMB hearing?
At the reeent council
meeting. , it was repeatedly
mentioned that the people
are confused. Since the
public meeting, threepeople
sought clarification from the
town administrator.
It is possible, that many
people concluded that it was
simply no bigdeal ;one wok
-
or another as far as their
properties are concerned.
There was considerable
misinformation given when
the petition was taken. At the
public meeting, the lady
behind the petition referred
to only sections of the
Heritage Act which do not
apply at all.

interest in the Heritage
District?

Partly that . of any
thoughtful and concerned
citizen in town, as this area
clearly contains en element
of general importance to our
communitym. _.beyond.._.and-••
above the T usual individual
property concerns. I am. not
speaking on behalf of LACAC
or anybody else, although
my beliefs may coincide with
others. However, having
been a member of LACAC
and town' "council I have
understanding for both.
In this context I take the
liberty of quoting from the
new edition of You and Your.
Local Government: To often,
it must be said,citizens or
groups ignore an unfolding
issue until its finals tages
and then make a last ditch
effort to reverse a decision
which has been all but
finalized.. Cries of "why
weren't we consulted?" are
particularly frustrating for
the municipal staff and
councillors who sat through
earlier,. ill -attended
Authority's reserve fund and:
about $50,000 will come from
the Township of Usborne
which will be using office
space in the proposed new
building.
"Usborne," said Mr. Pro-
ut, "will be paying a portion
of the cost based on the
percentage of the building it
will be using."
Both Mr. Prout and the
ABCA chairman John Tin-
ney of Hay Township said
municipalities within the
watershed will not be levied
to y for the building.
e general manager
meetings designed to elicit
public response.
I am a firm believer that
any elected' body has an
obligation to approach ,any,,
-situation of-ptib✓lic .concern in
an informed, rational,. fair
andbusinesslike fashion.
I find it difficult to un-
derstand by what process of
reasoning the council's new
motion was conceived.
Where is the justification to
exclude the radialstreets
and property owners ih the
extended area who may
.indeed wish to make rise • of
heritage grants. How many
$100,000 grants can we afford
to lose while we fuss,
backtrack and hesitate,
failing hp see Manion aims
and purpbses?
I hope council will
reconsider and I trust that
those who wish to be ex
, cluded realize such a request
must be made in an in-
dividual way.
