Huron County
(by Shirley J. Keller)
There is still indecision with-
in Huron County Council conc-
erning whether or not to cut
Midwestern Ontario Develop-
ment Association off in 1972
without financial support from
this county.
A resolution of the county
development committee chaired
by Alex McGregor, to discont-
inue financial support to MODA
in 1972, was defeated by a20-
20 tie vote. No further action
will be taken on the matter
until Walter Gowing, MODA
manager, has had an opport-
unity to express his opinions in
the matter.
Huron now has a full time
development officer in the
debate value
person of R.S. Cummings, a
former armed forces member
stationed at Clinton CFB. Some
members of council feel Huron
County cannot afford to support
MODA and a full time develop-
ment officer.
In other business at last Fri-
day's all -day session of Huron
County Council, Paul Carroll,
Reeve of Goderich, introduced
a motion on behalf of Goderich,
which if approved would hire
a full time building, trench
and plumbing inspector at the
county level.
"It is apparent that a need for
control over these services has
reached a point where a qualif-
ied person should be appointed
to protect the county and the
of MODA
municipalities, " said Carroll.
He said that since both areas
of government depend on ass-
essment for revenue, a building,
trench and plumbing inspector
would be warranted. It would
mean that copies of building
permits would be submitted
to the Regional Assessment
office on a regular basis and as
an added feature, the county
Construction Safety Officer,
Everett Smith, should be kept
abreast of all construction.
"Cost could be shared on a
per capita basis, with the larg-
er centres bearing the greatest
expense, " said Carroll who
noted that a similar system is
employed in the county of Brant,
