MAY 27, 1976 on Donate to HurorMew 11i4, However, 'the addition that is finally under*ay at AMAG has been provincially approved, at more than one million, &altars. There is considerable resentment that obligates the county to.pay 25 among some members of council per cent of , all provindaillY — that the county is now obligated approved costs of construction at any hospital in Huron County, The matter was never resolved at this month's session, and the recommendation from the Executive Committee to, rescind the by-law was referred back to them for further discussion, The main argument centred around funds from the county, allocated toward Goderich Alexandra Marine and General Hospital because of the by-law. When the original plans for the construction at AMAG were drawn up in 1910, the addition of emergency facilities were to have cost about $300,000. The county- was prepared to pay 25 per cent of $300,000, according to many members of council. A large portion of the afternoon session of Huron County Council last Thursday in Goderich was taken up arguing about whether or not to rescind a county, by-law County council argu9s hOspitai funding hospitals are concerned," "There's nothing' to stop the province' from approving a four . million dollar hospital," said Reeve BiliztIston. "Then they would co e along and say, okay boys, you pay one million dollars.- Stranger things do happen." . "I really think we should be doing something about this by-law or we're going to be in -trouble," he added. Deputy-reeve Bill Morley suggested that the previous by-law be rescinded and a new *by-law be passed, saying that county council would be responsible for 25 percent of the approved building costs up to one million dollars, "Then you'd everybody alike," Wm. Morley. "Are we afraid council won't have responsibility to, hospitals. alike?"

He urged "Minty council to remember that two- third of the cost of hospital construction* is' paid by the province, one-quarter is presently picked up by the county and about eight per cent of the total cost must J3e raised locally, "If the county cots, back on its portion, it is only increasing the amount that must be raised locally," said McNeil. Reeve G arty Ginn of Goderich Township said -the by-law should not be rescinded. "What if we, rescind the by-law and Clinton hospital decides to go 'It alone on a building project," said Reeve Gin. "It could happen, and we could be asked to pay 50 percent or more of the costs. What would we do then? We would really be charged with being unfair as far as the other John Jewitt of Hullett Township who urged councillors to get. on wthite‘hibthaym-elanwvoo,t7ibli - said Reeve Harold favor of rescinding " Lobb of Clinton. "Our hokpital will never be closed again. It will be improved inside of a year and it will be accredited too. This county can surely look after this 25 per cent as we go.along." County administrator Bill fierily said the county council, had been under the impression that the five county hospitals 'were planning-together where building priorities were concerned. When Clinton Hospital was closed, -it was apparent _that the hospitals weren't working together. "All this recommendation is saying is, let's get this house :in order," said Hanly, "let's find, out ,, where we're headed for certain and then the county can decide funding. But the reserve fund will remain as it is now, until then." 'Constance Silver Spurs meet to pay about $225,000 toward the hospital in Goderich. Reeve Bill Elston of Morris Township, 'also a member of executive committee, said it was the committee's intention to "show the government it couldn't come and get one-qdarter' of the construction costs for hospitals and then do as they like about closing them or keeping them gpen". Reeve Elston charged that the government of Ontario rode "Rough shod" over the people of this county. He said when the county pays one-quarter of the bill, it should also have some of the say.
