Province wie roposal t
reduce authority members
By Stephanie Levesque
William Manning of Blyth, Maitland
Valley Conservation Authority member,
thrashed out a province -wide proposal to
reduce the number of authority members.
MVCA chairman, Dave Gower of
Goderich, said the report prepared by staff
of the Association of Municipalities of
Ontario (AMO) and the Association of
Conservation Authorities of Ontario (ACAO)
would be on the agenda of MVCA's annual
meeting in February. A MVCA report will
be prepared for -the annual meeting so all
members will be aware of . the possible
ramifications.
Deviating from reading a semi-annual
report at the authority's general meeting,
Mr. Manning condemned government
bureaucracy.. He aimed his criticism at the
London region of the Ministry of Natural
Resources. He spoke several times of the
authority being bogged down in "reams and
reams" of paperwork.
"There are a lot of technocrats lined up in
front of computers that continue to vomit
out new directives on reams and reams of
paper," commented Mr. Manning.
He suggested that MVCA should get close
enough to the ministry so that they are
considered "bedfellows". The ministry
provides funding to conservation
authorities, thus dictating where the
authority money is spent.
Lumping his comments against the
ministry in the same speech criticizing the
joint report, Mr. Manning said•the report is
"the most frightening thing I ever heard".
"If the proposal goes through, it could
promotehard feelings from
municipalities, he said.
The report calls for reducing membership
on the authority to about 15 members each
representing a group of municipalities,
instead of one representative from each
municipality. MVCA presently has 34
members.
It was Mr. Manning's contention that no
money would be saved from such a proposal
because the representatives would have. to
be paid a per diem to report to the individual
municipalities. The proposal would be
similar taschool baord representation, said
Mr. Manning taking a dim view of county
boards.
The Blyth member took a few knocks at
his MVCA colleagues saying some were not
participating enough and regularily at-
tending meetings.
"Some sitting here are like deadwood.
They never ask any questions," said Mr.
Manning.
He called for the members to show some
"intestinal fortitude", to ask questions and
get involved in the authority, and to argue
against the proposed report before
authorities in the province have no choice
about having their numbers reduced.

Women working on history
Mayme Wilkins and Marian Zinn are still
very busy looking up the history on the
community. On Thursday the ladies spent
the whole day in the Goderich Library
looking through old copies of the Lucknow
Sentinel and the Goderich Star. They are
looking back as far as 1866. The women are
finding their work very interesting and they
do hope the community will enjoy the book
once it gets to publication. Good luck with
your findings.
Charles and Mayme Wilkins were in Five
Oaks on the weekend visiting with their
daughter, Barbara Shepperd and while they
were there, they attended a Work Shop on
Food from the Farm Gate which they found
very interesting and educational.
Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Robb visited
recently in Hanover with Bob, Sandra and
Heather Darling.
The community will be sorry to hear that
Doug Ross of Lucknow, son of Bill and Edna
Ross, also of Lucknow and formerly of this
community has suffered a heart attack and at
present is a patient in a London Hospital.
Get well wishes are sent and may it not be
too long until you will be home again, Doug.
Elizabeth Wilkins of Toronto visited at the
home of her parents, Charles and Mayme
Wilkins on the weekend.
Lesley Moncrief of Aylmer visited recently
with George and Betty Moncrief.
