In a giving mood
The students at East Wawanosh Public School certainly were in a giving mood last week as
they collected 233 items for the local food bank throughout the whole school. Special mention
certainly goes to Sydney Elder’s Grade 6/7 class, who accounted for 131 of those items. Elder
ran an incentive that she used last year as well. She told her class that she would match their
donations up to $100. They met and exceeded the target, and in addition to the 233 school-
wide items, Elder wrote out the $100 cheque for the food bank. Back left: Tommy Hewitt, Dylan

Ashfield-Colborne-Wawanosh
council has heard back from the
Ministry of the Environment
regarding the Draft Noise Findings
workshop attended by councillors
Barry Millian and Carl Sloetjes in
October.
During the session, Dr.
Ramakrishnan, an associate
professor specializing in acoustical
modeling, noise control,
architectural acoustics and aero-
acoustics at Ryerson University
provided an overview of his study of
the report done by Fritz van den
Burg concerning noise generated by
wind turbines.
After the October session, council
was informed that a final release
concerning the report and study
would be available in early
December.
“Sounds like early December. andif we have any further questions,we’re to give them a call,” said VanDiepenbeek.
“I’m going to suggest that we sit
down with our planners and go over
the draft zoning bylaws, so that we
can make sure that everything is
ready to go.
A meeting with county planners
Scott Tousaw and Monica Walker-
Bolton is tentatively scheduled to
take place Monday, Nov. 27 at 7:30
p.m.
“I’d like to review the whole draft
bylaw,” said Van Diepenbeek. “So
that when we’re ready to adopt the
wind portion, we’ll have everything
ready– there will be no hiccups.”
After questioning by those in
attendance during open forum,
Millian said, “it’s been 15 months
since we’ve been trying to do
something. We realize that
something needs to be done.”

A-C-W hears moreon draft noise issueBy Dominique MilburnGoderich Signal Star
Morris-Turnberry councillors
voted to extend the current contract
for curbside garbage pick-up in
urban areas until April 1 and delay a
decision on extending the service to
rural areas until after the results of
the municipal survey are in.
Council had asked Bluewater
Recycling Association for a quote to
continue the urban-only pick-up as
well as to extend it to rural areas.
The proposed rates would be $68.65
per household for urban
householders (who pay the cost
themselves). If everyone was
included in the service it would be
$91.77 per household for weekly
pick-up or $64.14 for bi-weekly
pick-up.
Councillors decided to wait to see
if residents indicated in their
completed surveys whether they
wanted roadside pick-up before
deciding to extend the service.
