MANLEY Road Superintendent THE SEAFORTH NEWS THUl2.SDAY, JANUARY 14, 1994. (Continued from Page 1) $SAFORTH COUNCIL Pryde, M,I',R, will be 'present toex- plain about 'housing. Mayor McMast- er said only three men 'from the whole county had attended last meeting and better attendance is hoped for. 'Councillors Sharp, Scott and the Mayor were tentatively named to attend. High praise was paid by the coun- cil to the work of James Stewart and J. E. Keating for what they have accomplished on the Community Centre board. When the arena is completely paid for the town is• to take it over, but in the meantime the original board carries on, Coun- cillor Christie explained that the board had paid off last year all in- terest and principal payments ,owing to date but of course payments would continue to come due until all debentures are redeemed. Coun- cillor Scott remarked that bingos had "flopped", 'having lost their appeal all over the oountrY. The usual money bylaw was pass- ed and the bylaw to provide for ex- penditure on streets and roads 'main- tenance at '59000 sante as last year's bylaw. Actual expenditure last year was $9300, but the department had reduced it to $7000 for basing grant. Seaforth had always tried to keep close to their estimate and had not been cut nearly as much as some places. The meeting was brought to an end with a questions and answers period from which this information was gleaned: The blinker light has been sent to the states for repairs by the North- ern Electric Co. and no word is given when it will be working again. A blinker light costs around 5375, while a stop light costs around $3000. No grant is available on the blinker light. Councillor Sharp asked if a blinker could be put up at the public school crossing on the high- way, but council felt it not neces- sary. Reeve Scoins said no stop signs have been put up south of the tracks and said a couple of corners required stop signs. Councillor Close said four signs were stili on hand and could be erected in the spring where necessary. Councillor Crich asked i£ a busi- nes tax entitles a merchant to sell anything and everything. The an- swer was yes. Councillor Crich asked who will be responible for any damages to water mains or drains when sewer is being put down. According to the contract '(which is not yet signed) the con- tractor is liable for all damages while work is in progress. Councillor Crich then wanted to know if $3000 per year would be the cost of operating the sewerage disposal .plant, to include heat, chlorination and a man for two or three hours a day, He pointed out this would mean another three mills on the tax rate over the cost of in- stalling the system. Councillor Christie asked if this cost would be paid for in the water rates of those using the sewer. Reeve Scoins said that would mean a total cost ,of over $100 per year to every user, Councillor Crich asked if the mill rate will pay for installation, and plant operation cost will be paid by the 100 or more users. He thought all the facts should be brought to the public attention, and also the existing conditions which make nec- essary putting in a sewer system. Mayor McMaster said the hospit- al could be connected to the system without using pumping, the sewer according to the engineer would come up Goderich street to West Street, then over to James Street and west on James Street to the hos- pital, the deepest cut needed being eleven feet in depth. Councillor Christie wanted to know how many of the council had seen conditions at the dump gate recently. He urged that signs be Treated forbidding the removal of unk from the dump as things are getting scattered around badly. This was left to the property committee. Councillor Leslie suggested that Buehie could be placed in charge f the dump as one of his duties. Ap- ointment of a man to look after he dump was laid over. The Finance Committee report: H.
