The Lucknow Sentinel, 1994-11-09, Page 11Recycling costs less here than in London •from page 1 serving more than half of Bruce County. Village stats show about 50 per cent participation in recycling. The eost is less than $10 ' per . household/year, which is "about one-third of what it costs in Lon- don," said Gibson. Recreation programs are budgeted at $37,600 and arena operation at $60,400 for 1994. Lillian Abbott said a joint recreation agreement was signed by Lucknow, Ashfield, Kinloss and West Wawanosh this year. The cost is on a shared -basis according to percentage of use and population. Lynn Peck reported that under the Greenway project this year, 688 trees and 308 wildflowers were planted. ' She complimented the various organizations involved in the project on their participation. A project under consideration is a.. `memorial forest' at Caledonia Park, Peck said. New signs for the village _ are close to completion, at a cost of about $4,000. Peck said they should be ready for installation in the near future. The Lucknow Hydro operates as a separate entity from the village. Reavie said the construction of the new substation didn't cost taxpayers any money, as the rent of $30,000 per year for the substation south of ' town is now diverted towards the new substation. "The only debt the village has is about $130,000 on the substation," Reavie 'said in a later interview. Council is waiting to hear on various applications made for infrastructure funds for fencing at the substation, `paving, sidewalks and renovation of council chambers and the town hall, as well as the connecting link. Proposed road .construction for next year includes Inglis and Outram Steets. Arena • A draft plan of the Lucknow and District Arena Complex - Phase II was displayed.
