MOTION REFERRED
A motion from the Mid -Huron Landfill
Site Board, recommending recycling by
users. ,s:of the site, was referred by
Seafort`h Town Council to its Finance and
General Government Committee for fur=
then study.
The landfill site board recommended
that each municipality using the Mid -
Huron Landfill Site be required to recy-
cle, and use either a Class 1, 2, or 4
system, and preferrably a Class 1 system
through Bluewater Recycling as
Bluewater Recylcing appears to be the
most economical. The board has asked
that member municipalities advise it of
its intentions by June 1, 1990.
Seaforth Council expressed some con-
cern over the recommendation, since it
had not budgeted for a recycling expense
in 1990. The Finance and General.
Government Committee is to investigate
the cost implication and different alter-
natives availablle to the town.
ENDORSE RESOLUTION

Sault Ste. Marie that a community is
composed of many different ethnic
groups, languages and cultures, and that
respect should be shown for !, and
preferential treatment given to none.
As with the City of Sault Ste Marie,
:Seaforth has 'throughout its history had
one common working language for all its
written and oral communications
(English), and since the preferred com-
mon language of commerce, business,
trade, science and normal everyday ac-
tivities is English, that use of English as
the official language of communication
with its citizens and all levels of govern-
ment, be continued.
