The agreement was presented to council at its meeting last Tuesday afternoon. Coun. Fred Meier, a former chairman of the Wingham Area Fire Board, said that they were fi- nally able to get something. Coun. Jinn Hunter, a current member of the fire board, said "at least it is something." He made the motion to approve the agree- ment. Council also agreed to the new fees for planning applications re- cently approved by the County of Huron council. It was noted that the fee for re- zoning went down from $1,000 to $925 and the fee for a severance was decreased from $750 to $605. However, the fee for a minor vari- ance was increased from $610 to $Ci50.. ti Although council had no com- plaints with the new fees, they were requesting a reduced fee for a renewal of a temporary zoning ' amendment. Apparently, the county had reduced the fee for Grey Township by 25 per cent. Council will also bring in an en- gineer to design equipment form the well in the Hamphrey subdivi- sion. ' The decision was made after roads superintendent Ralph Camp- bell, informed council of a recent survey he had to complete for the Ministry of the Environment and Energy (MOEE). Campbell informed council that he would also have to assess all the wells used by public buildings on a daily basis, rather than on a weekly basis as he has been doing.. As well as getting an engineer to design the . equipment for the well, council will also have to come up with a procedure in case something goes wrong. S.ticers Cfpn)in from fiv, rpage would only be given to residents of the township. If a person owned a house, buthad it rented out, the tenants would be given the stickers. Coun. Jim Hunter asked how the stickers would be distributed to the residents. Reeve Don Schultz said there should be some way 'keeping track of who receives tags. Coun. Hunter said that should have to come to the township hall to pick them up. 'However, coun. Meier came up with a novel method of distributing the stickers. "As a councillor, we should vol- unteer to distribute them," said coun. Meier. Each household. would be providedwith 50 stick-. ers. "I'm game (for distributing them)," said Reeve Schultz. Coun. Meier said that it jus makes sense for the councillors to distribute them. Corn. Hunter said that when they are distributed, the councillors can tell the residents that they will have to pick them up at the township hall the next year. Coun. Murray Scott said that a list of all the materials that can be recyclable should be provided for the residents. Council also decided that the charge for extra tags would be $2 per tag. Residents will be charged the extra tag rate, as soon as the 50 tags provided in January by the councillors going door-to-door. Residents will also have to pay to drop off items such as mattress- es, chesterfields, sofas, play pens, kitchen tables and chairs, lawn chairs, and day beds. People dropping off mattresses, chesterfields, and daybeds will be charged $2 per item, or else have a sticker on them. Council also wants people leaving kitchen ta- bles and chairs, play pelts, lawn chairs, and day beds to have them "tom apart better." Corn. Scott said there should be away to make people more aware of what materials can be recycled. Council will also begin charg- ing for loads of drywall, hale wire, asphalt shingles, carpet and under fay, and non-recyleable plastics and feed bags. The charge will be $5 for a pick-up load, $20 to $25 for a wagon load', and $50 for a dump - truck Toad. Roads superintendent Campbbl'1 said he will also begin charging $30 for every time he has to open up the landfill site gatesring the week.. 4 Christmas cheer...For the third straight year, the SAAN store in Wingham helped raise funds for the Salvation Army Christmas Cheer Fund through the sale of its popular Christ- mas Gift Boxes.
