Council asks committee to reconsider
Any investigation into, the possibility of
Ontario Government Services Ministry
and/or Attorney -General's office interest
in purchasing the Huron County Court
House will have to wait at least until
September.
That is the result of action taken by
Huron County Council at its regular 'July
session, the last meeting prior to its sum-
mer adjournment until September.
Council turned down an agriculture and
property committee recommendation that
both ministries be approached to see if
they are interested in purchasing the court
house, or in building a new facility for the
courts. The issue was ultimately referred
back to the committee for further con-
sideration, but only after discussion at
some length by the members of council
present.
The recommendation was included dur-
ing the presentation of the agriculture and
property committee report by its chair-
man, Tuckersmith Township Reeve Bob
Bell.
The committee's recommendation
results from a letter - signed by the Crown

COUNCIL
BRIEFS
Attorney at Goderich and a number of
other court officials - expressing concern
about the existing court room and office
conditions within the county -owned court
house.
In the letter, a number of problem areas
are listed, including :
- On many days, two and sometimes
three courts are running at the same time.
- At present, there is only one court
room suitable for such use.
- Witnesses and accused persons are
forced to stand and sit in the hallways and
stairways.
- A shortage of interview rooms exists
and office space is at a minimum.
- Security for judges and court room
staff is virtually non-existent.
There is also a possibility, the letter
states, that satellite courts in Exeter and
Wingham will be moved to Goderich.
The solution to the problems, the letter
suggests, is that the provincial govern-
ment either lease or acquire the court
house, , although such a transition would
not take place immediately.
It was this suggestion, Mr. Bell said,
which prompted the committee to make its
recommendation. "We decided to write
them ( the. ministries) and ask them if they
are serious," he said. "Do they want to buy
it, or what." .
When asked by Exeter Reeve Bill Mickle
if the committee was seriously considering
such a sale, Mr. Bell explained the com-
mittee only wanted to determine how
definite was the interest of the ministries.
However, he added, "I guess if they
come back and tell us they'll give us $20
million, then I guess it's for sale."
Mr. Mickle also expressed concern over
the letter's suggestion that ,the Wingham
and Exeter courts might be moved and
urged council to make a statement 4eclar-
ing its support of maintaining these courts
at their present locations.
Bayfield Reeve Dave Johnston felt coun-
cil should not just investigate the possibili-
ty of selling the building, but should also
include the option of leasing it to the courts
as well. "If we're going to give them op-
tions, let's give them something that we
can still negotiate at a later date," Mr.
Johnston said.
Since either selling or leasing the
building to the courts would mean Huron
County would have to build or relocate
elsewhere, Usborne Township Reeve
Gerald Prout said consideration should be
given at the outset to acquiring "a more
centralized location in the county other
than Goderich."
At this point, Blyth Reeve Albert
Wasson, a member of the agriculture and
property committee, suggested council
was taking the recommendation out of pro-
portion. He echoed Mr. Bell's comments
that the' committee was merely seeking
more information in order to determine
the seriousness of the letter's suggestion.
Clerk -Administrator Bill Hanly also
pointed out that seeking information was
the committee's only intention. "We are
just interested in finding out if the pro-
vince is interested," Mr. Hanly said. "If
they are not, then we have nothing further
to investigate.".
Hay Township Reeve Lionel Wilder plac-
ed strong emphasis on his opinion that the
county should not be getting itself involved
in such an issue at this time. "It's the
county's building and not the courts," Mr.
Wilder said. "And, if they are not happy
with the accommodations, then let them
find or build their. own..
With the county' now faced with its
museum and Huronview projects, he add-
ed, "as far as I'm concerned this is the
wrong time to be thinking about building a
new Huron County Court House."
' Mr. Wilder's suggestion to refer the
issue back to the committee for further
consideration was adopted quickly by
council•.
Nearly 15 per cent will
be over 65 in 1990
In Huron County by 1990, 14.75 per cent of
the total population will be over 65, county
council learned at its regular July session at
the court house in Goderich.
The projection was included in an age
analysis of the county's population - based
on the 1985 enumeration - presented to coun-
cil in .a report from its committee of
management for Huronview.
Stanley Township Reeve Clarence Rau,
committee chairman, called council's atten-
tion to the analysis. "I think it's interesting
to see where they (people over 65) come
from," he said.
At present, the total population of the
county 66 years of age or over is 8,060, coun-
cil was told, or 14.5 per cent.
In a breakdown by municipality, Bayfield
has the highest percentage of its population
over 65 - 24.8 per cent or 173 people. The
municipality with the lowest percentage is
Usborne Township with 6.8 per cent on 108
people. Goderich has the highest total of in-
dividuals 65 or over, 1,229, representing 16.9
per cent of its total population.
Of the county's five towns, Seaforth has
the highest percentage of those over 65, 21.3
per cent or 485, according to the analysis.
For the other towns, Clinton has 17.6 per
cent or 549, Exeter is slightly higher at 17.9
per cent or 663 and Wingham is higher still
with 18.5 per cent or 543.
The statistics for the villages are:
Bayfield, 173 or 24.8 per cent; Blyth, 164 or
18.4 per cent; Brussels, 210 or 21.3 per cent;
Hensall, 189 or 17.6 per cent; and Zurich, 138
or 17.2 per cent.
In the rural municipalities, the analysis
reports: -Ashfield Township, 154 or 8.9 per
cent; Colborne Township, 241 or 13.3 per
cent; Goderich Township, 215 or 9.7 per
cent; Grey Township, 167 or 8.8 per cent;
Hay Township, 292 or 15.3 per cent; Howick '
Township, 369 or 12 per cent; Hullett
Township, 183 or 9.9 per cent; McKillop
Township, 106 or 7.7 per cent.
Morris Township, 180 or 10.8 per cent;
Stanley Township, 175 or 10.9 per cent;
Stephen Township, 644 or 15.4 per cent;
Tuckersmith Township, 503 or 16.9 per cent;
' Turnberry Township, 192 or 12.6 per cent;
Usborne Township, 108 or 6.8 per cent; East
Wawanosh Township, 80 or -7.2 per cent;
West Wawanosh Township, 135 or 9.7 per
cent.
