from Keith and staff at
Continued from page 44while the program has been said tocost $31 a year over the five years,many ratepayers have come to him
with concerns, saying that the
proposed staffing levels are not even
close to high enough for such a
program.
They were concerned, Westerhout
said, that when the Health Unit
realizes that the program is
understaffed, more employees will
have to be hired, raising the cost of
the program from the proposed $31
to between $100 and $200 a year.
Westerhout then suggested a 10-
year cycle, which had been proposed
at the Huron County level as well.
MacLellan said the staffing should
work under Worsell’s model. He said
that the program will only require
the hiring of one full-time employee
and the use of summer students, as
many as 10 of them per year, Worsell
added.
Councillor Brian Barnim was also
concerned about the costs, saying
that while he lives in a wellhead
protection area along the lakeshore,
he is already subject to mandatory
inspections, but because of his
location, he is eligible for funding to
assist him with any costs he may
incur. This is a luxury that won’t be
extended to all the septic system
users in Huron County, he said.
He also criticized the five-year
cycle, saying there is no way it can
be done.
“It’s impossible,” Barnim said, “I
can’t make it work.”
MacLellan told council that the
county was awaiting their response
to the program. He said that every
other lower tier municipality but
Central Huron had responded.
He said council’s vote is integral
in the search for a triple majority,which is needed to pass the program.A triple majority means that amajority of Huron County
councillors voted in favour of the
program, a majority of lower tier
municipalities voted in favour of the
program and that those lower tier
municipalities which voted in favour
of the program comprised a majority
of the county’s population.
MacLellan said that a majority of
Huron County councillors had
already voted for the program and if
Central Huron was to vote in favour
of the program that a majority of thecounty’s citizens would be positivelyrepresented. However, CentralHuron would only be the fourth
municipality to support the project,
one short of the five needed to carry
a majority.
If Central Huron Council was to
vote in favour of the program,
MacLellan said, and he was that
close to a triple majority, he felt that
was something he could work with.
He said he could return to some of
the lower tier municipalities who
weren’t in favour of the program and
discuss it further with them in hopesof potentially changing their minds.Council didn’t formally vote onthe issue, saying they should wait
until consideration of the issue has
been publically announced.
Barnim, as well as CouncillorBurkhard Metzger, both said thepublic should be notified andinformed of the meeting when the
issue was going to be officially
considered and voted on.

some excited about the experience!
The bus ride was a project of the
Montreal City Mission and
supported by United Church

The Londesborough Happy Gang
Seniors hosted their December card
party at the Community Hall on
Friday, Dec. 14. There were just 10-
and-a-half tables of euchre players
that evening.
Winners were: first, Bob and June
Thomas, 79; second, Len and Betty
Archambault, 72; third, Gerard and
Lorna, 71; lone hands, Lorna and
Ethel, six.
Despite reports to the contrary,
there will now be cards in
Londesborough on the second
Friday evening of January, February
and March. Members of the Lions
Club have stepped up to look after
those evenings.
During the week of Nov. 19 - 23,
the AMDSB recognized anti-
bullying week. A variety of
activities and discussions took place
at Hullett Central that week to
increase awareness among the
students.
The Grade 7/8 class made a
number of anti-bullying posters and
put them up around the school. The
Grade 2/3 class hung their ‘caring
being’ in the hall by the office. In
Kindergarten the children heard the
story of “Albert’s Old Shoes” and
identified the emotions that are
triggered when a person is the object
of bullying - sadness, anger and
loneliness. The Grade 3/4 class also
discussed related material,
concluding all forms of bullying are
unacceptable.
The children all seemed to think
they would help anyone being
bullied and report the behaviour to a
teacher. Every day in Grade 4/5 is
stated to be an anti-bullying day.
They talked a lot about respecting
one another and promoting kind
behaviour. Mrs. Campbell Taylor’s
class adopted the motto “be a buddy,
not a bully”.
