Tim Lewis, By-law Enforcement Officer Township of North Huron TOWNSHIP OF NORTH HURON BY-LAW NO. 39-2012 REGULATION AND CONTROL OF TRAFFIC M-T Council pay nearly over budget Morris-Turnberry is quickly approaching the amount budgetted to pay council over the year and the municipality still has two months worth of meetings and events left. During council’s Oct. 20 meeting, Administrator Clerk-Treasurer Nancy Michie explained that, as of that day, council had spent approximately $73,000 of the $75,000 the municipality had budgeted to pay councillors for meetings and to cover their expenses. Michie said that the municipality may have imposed too severe a limit on itself during budget time. Council had decided last year that, due to reducing the number of council members by eliminating the at-large deputy-mayor position, they would reduce costs, however Michie said they may have cut too much. “The amount should be another $25,000 to be comparable with other municipalities,” she explained. “Looking back, we were at $110,000 and we really had thought that we were reducing costs significantly with one less member, but we reduced too much.” Mayor Paul Gowing said the amount was likely not appropriate, given that first-year councillors often require more training. Council agreed to consider the issue at a future meeting. Bainton’s Old Mill Leather Coats Downtown Blyth 519-523-4740 NEWS FROM BELGRAVERecognized F.E.

(Vicky Bremner photo) WI instructed in soap making An interesting Women’s Institute meeting was held at Knox United Church, Belgrave on Oct. 20. Branch president Verna Norgate opened the meeting with the singing of the Opening Ode and the Mary Stewart Collect. She then gave a humorous reading called, “When I’m An Old Lady.” Wilma Higgins convened the program and introduced Kendall Jardin, who sang three songs and accompanied herself with the guitar. Next on the program was Tina Purdy who, along with her son, demonstrated the art of soap making. Her business is known as “Oh So Purdy”. Tina spoke about the benefits of the pure homemade soap and answered lots of questions. Everyone present received a gift of soap and four ladies were lucky in a draw held by Wilma. Products could be purchased including lip balm, gardener’s soap, bath bombs and various other soaps. The special guests were thanked by Wilma. In the business portion the secretarial and financial reports were given and correspondence read. The roll call was answered by 10 members and two guests. Volunteer hours were recorded and roll call was “do you prefer homemade to commercial soap?” A thank you was received for donations given to London Children’s Hospital.
