Morris council accepts drain improvement petition Morris township council accept­ ed drainage petitions at its meeting on January 8 for the Blackhall Drain, Cone. 1, North Part Lots 4,5; Heinz Shedler, Cone. 5, North half Lot 16 and Robertson-Mathers Drain, Cone. 2 North Part. A petition for improvements to the Turvey Municipal Drain at Lots 18-20 on Cone. 2 were accepted. Maitland Engineering Services have been appointed to prepare a report. Ross Procter of Bodmin Ltd. attended the meeting to discuss the possibility of receiving the recyc­ ling newsprint from the waste disposal site. Bodmin Ltd. plans to shred the paper and use it for bedding in the chicken barns. Mr. Procter said they were not interested in paying for the paper, but would pick it up if it would benefit the landfill site. Council decided that the town­ ship would carry on as it has done with the storage of newsprint and if Bodmin Farms Ltd. wish to try a load of paper to process, they can arrange pick-up with site attendant Calvin James. Council discussed the sale of the 1974 Ford dump truck and the old air compressor, as well as the damaged gravity bin, that was left on the side of the road three years ago. It was decided that these items would be advertised for sale. Council authorized Reeve Doug Fraser to sign the certificate for the Transportation of Dangerous Goods as road superintendent Lloyd Michie has completed the training course. Don Carter of Carter Waste Disposal attended the meeting to discuss with council the pickup of waste from various areas of the municipality and the disposal of waste. After a lengthy discussion, coun­ cil authorized a letter to be sent to Mr. Carter advising him that council does not request any changes at this time and arrange­ ments may remain the same. Don Craig, the representative on the Blyth Union Cemetery Board requested a grant for 1991. Costs at the cemetery have increased and the cost per plot for the perpetual care fund has also increased. The board is also considering ways to improve the older stone markers at the cemetery. Mr. Craig left the meeting and council agreed to take the matter into consideration at budget time this year. Council made the following ap­ pointments for 1991: Harvey Ed­ gar, Ronald Gordon, and George Blake as poundkeepers; John Nixon, John Cardiff, William Souch and Ken McDonald as fenceview­ ers; Carmen Craig as the livestock valuer for the south side of the township of Morris separated by County Road 16 and Glen Case- more as the livestock valuer for the north side; and Joe Gibson of RR 2, Seaforth as weed inspector. A by-law was passed approving the borrowing of funds from Cana­ dian Imperial Bank of Commerce in Wingham to a limit of $500,000. Councillors Wayne Riley and Delores Souch were given permis­ sion to attend the ROMA conven­ tion with registration and expenses paid. The registration of $492.20 is forwarded to the Association of Municipal Officers (AMO) office. Membership to the AMO asso­ ciation for 1991 in the amount of $512.88 was approved. Council discussed the plans for the Huron view Project. The Reeve and Clerk Nancy Michie attended a meeting in Brussels in December concerning the project. It was noted that Brussels is proposing a meeting be planned with the Huronview committee for discussion of the plans. B. M. Ross and Associates in Goderich prepared plans showing the easement into the Nichol Drain on Lot 30, Cone. 6. These were presented to council. Reeve Fraser said he had been talking to landowners affected by the ease­ ment and had heard no objections. Membership into the Clerks and Treasurers Association at a cost of $208.65, the Ontario Farm Drain­ age Association at a cost of $90 and the Ontario Good Roads Superin­ tendent Association at a charge of $50 were approved. The general accounts in the amount of $33,005.11 and the road accounts totalling $80,223.43 were also approved for payment. At the January 22 meeting of Council Jean Kirkby, Regional Director of the Federation of Agri­ culture and her husband Doug were in attendance as was Doug Garniss OFA member for the annual Federation visit. Mrs. Kirkby reviewed many of the programs of the OFA and the work the Federation has done with the provincial government. She also advised council that OFA members in Morris would have a sign posted at their gate in 1991. A grant of $500 was approved for the Federation of Agriculture for this year. Councillor Deloris Souch advised that Hebo Siertsema has been appointed chairman of the Blyth Community Centre Board. The Morris township recreation statement of costs was presented to council for review. The total costs for 1990 were $38,595.34, with $28,888 budgeted for recreation. Bert Elliott of RR 2, Blyth and Ed Stewart of RR 2, Bluevale have been appointed to the Bluevale Hall Board. Council was advised that extra funding is available this year for road projects to provide employ­ ment. Various projects were dis­ cussed. It was brought to council’s attention that MTO will pay sub­ sidy on the dump box from Viking for the new dump truck - snow­ plow. The equipment was paid in 1991, so subsidy will therefore be applicable. HEARING AID CLINIC Robert & Mark McIntyre Hearing Instrument Practitioners will be at RIECK I.D.A.
