Construction crews begin tackling sidewalks, streets
Another month has flown by and it
is the end of April. A third of 2015
is gone. The old adage of “time
flies” seems to be very true. The
long weekend in May as well as
camping season, are just two weeks
away. The end of June and the end
of school only nine weeks away, and
yes Christmas is just eight months
away! Lots of things to look forward
to.
Yippee! The crews are back in
town and the sidewalks in the main
section of town are being torn up and
repoured with cement. It wasn’t very
nice for them on Wednesday and
Thursday but Friday wasn’t so bad.
They have the west side sidewalks
done and have moved to the east side
of the street as of Monday morning.
Construction isn’t always the
greatest for the businesses, but the
main street shouldn’t be tied up that
long. The restaurants seem to be
busier with the workers needing
coffee and maybe a hot lunch on
these colder days. Soon they will be
complaining it is too hot!
Congratulations to Dave and
Karen Bowles on the birth of a new
granddaughter. Daughter Paula and
husband Kyle Elliott of Mitchell
have welcomed Emma to the family.
She will be welcomed home by big
sister Madison. Great-grandmother,
Dorothy Dilworth is excited about a
fourth great-grandchild to love.
Congratulations to Jean Davidson
on celebrating her 80th birthday. She
enjoyed a delicious dinner with her
many nieces and nephews provided
by the United Church ladies at the
arena. She was then surprised by her
many friends that arrived to help
celebrate the milestone. Happy
birthday Jean and congrats on
reaching 80!
Huronlea has welcomed a familiar
face to their family with the arrival
of Bill Stephenson to their fold. He
is settling in nicely and we hope his
old friends will stop by for a visit.
Our sympathies to Edna McLellan
on the passing of her brother Jordan
Guy. He will be missed by his three
children and their families and his
three sisters. He resided in Victoria,
B.C..
We are pleased to see Brian
Rutledge is out and about again after
having surgery a couple of weeks
ago. He is doing very well according
to wife Marlene. Great news for all.
Our get-well wishes go to Jerry
Jutzi and to his father George Jutzi.
They both have had surgery and we
hope both are improving.
Our sympathies are expressed to
the family of the late Ruby Hoover.
She will be missed by her husband
Russell and sons Terry and Bob and
their families. Ruby and her husband
have been residents of the Highland
Apartments, moving from Atwood, a
few years ago. Ruby and I became
friends about a year ago. She was a
lovely woman with a great sense of
humour and will be missed by many.
Our condolences to all.
McGavin’s have been making a
few changes around the yard this
past week. It really looks nice out
front of the Bobcat building with the
new decorative and functional large
stone blocks surrounding the display
area. Very nice indeed!

Some good novices
A pair of Novice hockey players were honoured last week as the Blyth Brussels Minor Hockey
Association celebrated with its year-end awards banquet. One of the awards presented was
the Luke Anderson Memorial Award, which goes to the most dedicated Novice players. Here,

Renovations have resumed at the
Brussels Medical Dental Centre
after the loss of over a week due to a
stop-work order.
Morris-Turnberry Councillor
Dorothy Kelly updated her fellow
councillors as to the situation at
council’s April 21 meeting, saying
that a small amount of asbestos had
been found in the building.
In an interview with The Citizen,
Brad Knight, Huron East’s Chief
Administrative Officer, said that the
stop-work order was the result of a
mix-up in the paperwork.
While the project’s contractor had
filed a Notice of Project with the
Ministry of Labour, Knight said, a
Ministry site inspection on April 2
revealed that a Designated
Substance Report had not been
completed for the renovations.
Knight said that because of the
small scale of renovations, the
contractor had not anticipated
needing the report and did not
inquire further with the municipality.
The stop-work order was then
issued and was eventually lifted
once Huron East obtained the report
and complied with its requirements.
Knight said that while the
municipality has obtained
Designated Substance Reports in the
past, due to the small scale of the
project, those involved didn’t think
the report was necessary.
Knight said that it took 10 days to
obtain the report and comply with the
order before work could begin again.
