GID RICH TWP. - Council here Is.:
against proposal whith. woptd use prime;
farmland as a route for Ontario Hydro
alls1-4001041p. . ,....me .
At their March eting,'" Godeirxclf
Township Council passed a motion voicing
their opposition to the proposed hydro
routes which would 'take, power from the
Bruce Nuclear Power Development
(BNPD) south to London.
The proposed route would cut through
Goderich Township and. in their motion op-
posing this, council noted, "it is our
understanding that approximately 10 times
as much as Number One and Two farmland
would be affected by this southerly route as
. would be affected by a route from Bruce to
Essa."
The -Bruce-Essa route was originally pro-
posed by Ontario Hydro in studies made in
1981. This northern Ontario route was re-
jected in court after it was ruled that On-
tario Hydro gave landowners insufficient
warning of its intentions.
New Hydro proposals will study the
original Bruce-Essa route against a new
route, which travels from BNPD south to:
London. The corridor travels through
Goderich Townshhip.
Area councils and concerned landowners
have been notified of the route proposal and
an open house has been scheduled in Clinton
on March 13 to discuss the options. Hydro
representatives have invited councils to
meet with them at 2 p.m. for discussion. The
public information centre is open from 2:30
to 9 p.m. at the Arena 'Auditorium.
In other business, financial assistance for
Tuckersmith Township's Vanastra Recrea-
tion Centre was turned down by Goderich

would be better considered by a more com-
plete breakdown of the facility's use. Coun-
cil agreed to invite a Tuckersmith represen-
tative to an upcoming meeting to provide
detailed information regarding the
Vanastra Recreation Centre.
