(Dranfings by Jltrf Scott) Increases average 20 per cent for Huron County departments - By Sharon Dietz Huron' County Council wrestled with budgets pre- sented by the various com- mittees at its January 29 meeting, in an attempt to hold the overall county budget to an increase of between 15 and 17 -per cent. Increases in the department budgets ranged from 15 to 27 per cent. Warden Fred Haberer.told Council the county was able to slip through last year, but in 1981 the council will be faced with same tough deci- sions regarding budget in- creases. The highways department submitted 'the budget with the largest county rate in- crease: 27 per cent in a e budget of $3,927,500. The in- crease in the 'road budget this year was related to significant overruns on two projects in 1980, leaving the department with a deficit for the year of $201,068 on a cash basis. • Reeve George Fellows of Bayfield questioned the right of the road committee to per- mit si gni f caht overruns which would result in a deficit. County Engineer Bob Dempsey answered that unforeseen difficulties has resulted in a larger overrun than anticipated on the con- struction of Road 11 Road committee chairman Lloyd Mousseau told council the second overrun was the Auburn Garage replacement and pointed out that it was a one-time project. Once the garage is paid for, said Mousseau, the road budget can be brought in line next Year. „ The land division com- mittee brought in one of the lower budget increases at 15.1 per cent. The committee recommended the fee for all approved severances be 'raised from 175 to-- $100, 1 resulting in • increased revenues of approximately $3,000. Reeve Bill Elston of Morris Townshiptold council that land severances are "a • bona fide part of county plamijng". He objected to the jerson wanting the. severance being asked to bear the burden. County clerk -treasurer Bill Hanly pointed out that the countyis subsidizing each fee by more than 570 per cent. Reeve Paul Steckle .of Stanley Township said he is opposed to seVerances, and remarked that the county cannot, continue to subsidize those whoare benefiting. He said he would not be opposed to having those wanting severances pay . half of the administration fee. Council referred the matter to the executive com- mittee, which will consider the land division budget an*. make recommendations concerning the fee to be paid. The board of health budget came in with an 18.5 per cent increase, largely due to ex- penditures for furnishings and euipment for the new county health building under construction at Huronview in Clinton. The reeve of Bayfield, George Fellows, objected to the allotted expenditure of $45,000 for furnishings and euipment at the new health building. Dr. Brian Lynch, medical officer of health, told council more realistic figures would be available at the end of February when they will be brought to council. lle said the figure in the budget was , an educated -guess, but that he was certain when the figures were available the furnishings and equipment would cost less. Reeve Fellows commented that he did not like using expanded figures because this permits the expenditure to increase to meet that figure. He said he did not like this kind of budgeting. County Clerk -Treasurer Bill Hanly, told council members the figure of $45,000 is realistic for the type of facility and number of staff, at the health building. He remarked that, considering the type of build- ing and staff reqniretnents, the cost of furnishings and equipment could well be .$50,000, therefore the budgeted figure of $45,000 is a realistic figure. Budgets were also received from the social ser- vices committee, the planning department, the development committee, Huronview, the , library board, the property commit- tee and the proposed budgets of the executive committee, including. general govern- ment, members of council and general administration, educational grants and patriotic grants. All were accepted and now will go to the executiye com- mittee for final review. Do you have something lying around the house you'd like to be rid of?
