The Wingham Advance Times, 1995-09-20, Page 2TEESWATER--A trailer owned by
a village flower shop owner may
not be returned to the hamlet unless
it conforms to town zoning bylaws.
Flora Nabrotzky of "Flora's
Flowers" had the trailer removed
by council's July 31 deadline. It
now is located outside Teeswater in
a neighboring township.
The trailer was used to store Na-
brotzky's bedding plants during the
frost -prone season. In a letter, Na-
brotzky had asked if local service
clubs could use the trailer to advert-
ize events. The request was dis-
cussed at the first September meet-
ing of Teeswater council held last
Monday.
While Councillor Steve Mac-
Donald could not see any reason
why service groups could not use
the trailer to advertize events, as
long as the trailer was in town no
longer than a weekend, the other
members were not eager to see it
returned to the village at all.
"Let's stay out of it altogether,"
said Councillor Karl Lang and
Dave Montgomery agreed, "It's
(the trailer) out of town now, let's
leave it out."
Nabrotzky's suggestion that she
be allowed to bring the trailer back
into town to use during the frost
season also met with a flat "no".
THE IYINGHAM ADVANCE TIMES
Problems remain unsolved
By JIM BROWN
The Advance -Times
BELGRAVE - East Wawanosh
Township council spent close to
an hour discussing the problems of
the Johnston Drain and the prob-
lems faced by Paul Montgomery
and other residents of Hutton
Heights.
Council suggested that Mont-
gomery get a petition started and
bring it to council so council could
have an engineer assess the prob-
lem and get an estimate of the cost
of solving the problem.
Montgomery was at council ear-
lier this summer complaining
about water runoff flooding his
basement, especially after a rain-
fall.
His basement is still flooding,
and the water is remaining,on his
property. He would like to have a
drain take the water away.
Township road superintendent
Ralph Campbell said it is mostly
basement water. He added that any
drainage would not be an attempt
to take away all the surface water,
because they wouldn't want to
have water back-up into base-
ments.
Councillor Fred Meier said that
if property owner Lloyd Hutton
decided to develop the 10 lots on
he other side of Crawford Street,
404e*Arg

then a drain would have to be
built.
Keith Montgomery said that
everyone concerned should work
together in solving the problem.
"Now would be a good time to
get things fixed up," he said.
He added that a one-time tem-
porary solution just made things
worse.
Councillor Jim Campbell said
putting a culvert across Hwy. 4
would significantly solve the prob-
lem by getting rid of a great deal
of the surface water..
Councillor Jim Hunter suggest-
ed that Montgomery should come
back to council with a signed peti-
tion.
It was noted that a temporary
I 8 -month agreement was reached
in 1991 that was supposed to have
extended the drain to the south end
of Crawford Street in 1992, and
carry the water from both sides of
the street. The drain was never
completed.
Council still stated that a peti-
tion would be required in order to
get the work done. Council said
that there was no petition in 1991,
and no engineer was brought in by
council.
At a special meeting held in De-
cember, 1991, it was agreed that
two-thirds of the cost would be
borne by the Wells Association
with 16 2/3 per cent each paid by
Evans and Thompson.
Coun. Hunter said that eventual-
ly the drain will have to go all the
way to the end.
It was suggested that council
talk to an engineer in order to. find
out what should be done. Council
can also Lind out how many people
will be affected.
Coun. Campbell said that an ex-
tended drain would eventually
help everyone in the area, out he
added there is nothing the council
can do until it receives a signed
petition.
Keith Montgomery said that he
didn't want to cause any trouble,
but said he would take the matter
to his lawyer.
Paul Montgomery agreed with
his father that a lawyer should
look at the matter, but added he
would sign a petition. He added
that his insurance company is also
looking into the situation.
"I just want to take the water
out of my basement," he said.
All members of council will
meet with an engineer just to find
out what would be involved in get-
ting a drain installed.
Reeve Don Schultz said no en-
gineer would be hired by the coun-
cil until they receive a petition
from the affected residents

WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 241995
A day in Bruce's shoes
TEESWATER--Some lucky pupils
from Hillcrest Central School or
Sacred Heart School, Teeswater,
could be "reeve for a day" under a
proposal by Teeswater Reeve
Bruce Kissner.
The reeve broached the subject
at the first September meeting of
Teeswater council. In an effort to
acquaint school children with the
inner workings of the municipality,
'Kissner suggested that an essay
contest be held in both schools.
Teachers could judge the essays
Montgomery suggested that she put
up a tent, however, Clerk -Treasurer
Kendra Reinhart pointed out that a
tent cannot be locked.
In the end, council said it will is-
sue no temporary permit for the
trailer and it cannot be allowed in
town unless it complies with the
bylaw.

ing their grants cut while 90 per
cent of their budget is in salaries of
unionized staff. He said the county
should be helping the board gain
more control over the salary por-
tion of its budget.
Hullett Reeve Tom am
said he supported the motion and
the aim of no tax increase but won-
dered if council might be setting a
trap for itself. If the provincial gov-
ernment cuts grants but doesn't cut
the requirements for service that it
now imposes on municipalities then
council will be hard pressed to hold
the line on the budget.
Mickle, past president of the As-
sociation of Municipalities of Onta-
rio, told council the group's annual -
meeting had been told by provin-
cial treasurer Ernie Eves that cuts
of 20 per• cent in conditional and
unconditional grants to municipali-
ties were in the works. What's
more, he said, a senior government
official had told him not to be sur-
prised if provincial grants to munic-
ipalities disappear 'completely in
the comingyears.
