Grey noted they would be interested in a County inspection if the Township by-law could be enforced. The Township of Hay noted that it had its own by-laws and its own inspectors and opposed the idea. Howick supported the suggest- ion of plumbing inspection. McKillop noted its opposition to the scheme. Hullett went against the idea saying that it was too ineffic- ient and expensive under the present proposal. Morris favored the proposal but noted that inspection carr- ied out five years ago under a program operated by the Health Unit was quite satisfactory. Stanley did not support the suggestion saying that inspection on a County basis would be very difficult to finance with rural and urban areas on the samt basis. Stephen opposed the proposal noting, "We prefer to have County septic tank and weeping tile bed inspection, also rough- ing -in plumbing water test in- spection on residential and commercial buildings and the applicant pay for the inspection costs not exceeding $15. Tuckersmith gave its support by adding that certain minimum plumbing and building costs be set prior to requirement of a permit. They suggested $100 for plumbing and $300 for build- ing. Usborne was opposed noting "the council can forsee unneces- sary delays." Clinton town council were not in favor of the by-laws as previously presented. "A few, possibly, but not many can see merit in inspection but they seem unwilling to accept this on a County basis, " the reply noted. Exeter gave its approval "with reservations." The town of Goderich said it would "consider plumbing insp- ection on a County basis." Bayfield agreed "in principle but not to the by-law and fees in the present form." Brussels was in agreement but noted that they felt the County rates would be too costly. Hensall council felt it would be too expensive and it would require more than two inspectors to police the work properly on a County basis. Zurich was in agreement not- ing that building and plumbing inspection should be applicant to all rural and urban buildings. Without adding further com- ment East Wawanosh supported the proposal, West Wawanosh opposit it as did Wingham while Blyth gave the idea its support. The mixed reaction to the Board of Health's proposal shown in the survey submissions was also evident as members of ,County Council debated the Board's request for approval at last Friday's meeting. Costs and the administration set up of the proposed new department brought the most opposition with debate centering around cost distribution and the need to set up a completely new department rather than incorporating at plumbing inspector with the present Health Unit. After about 20 minutes of dicsussion the report was turned back to the bca rd of Health "for further study" by the council members. On part of the Board's report was approved however, Effective June 25, the date of the last Board of Health meeting the Board established a policy that when overtime calls by health inspectors were made at the request of a contractor or property owners, a rate of $10 per hour is to be charged to the person requesting the inspection. In reviewing the accounts of the Health Unit the Board had noted that on a number of occ- asions public health inspectors were being requested to make inspections in the evenings and on weekends. This had resulted in additional cost to the County since over time had to be paid the staff members involved. Council supported the Board's new policy. 0 KIPPEN EAST W.I.

LIVESTOCK SHIPPING TO TORONTO UNION STOCK YARDS Dunn and Levack Richard Bedard DIAL 2344479 Every Monday Hur 'n ppr''ves VON agree Gwent An amended agreement bet- ween Huron County Council and the Victorian Order of Nurses, as suggested by the VON, and recommended by the Social Services Committee, received council approval. The new agreement covers nursing serv- ices purchased from that organ- ization by the county. The ammendment includes the new rate of $7.00 per visit, which had already been approv- ed by council. It also provides for a'thirteenti payment, or refund, each year when the actual cost per visit for any year is known, which is usually early the following year. It was felt by the commit- tee that the latter ammend- ment should result in reduced deficits and therefore should reduce any unsubsidized grants required from the County in future years. In other business from the Social Services committee County Council agreed not to concur with a resolution receiv- ed from the County of Grey. The resolution requested sup- port for a move to ask the Prov- ince of Ontario to contribute 50 per cent of all administration costs of social service depart- ments, rather than any salaries, staff training and travel exp- enses.
