Fire hall zoning change gets no opposition
If participation in the public
meeting for the zoning change for
the old fire hall property in Brus-
sels is any indication, it seems to be
clear sailing in plans to sell the
property and turn it into a car wash.
No one but the prospective own-
ers of the property appeared at the
meeting to discuss the change in
Protesting that the "abandoned"
cars on his property were licenced
and insured, a John St. resident told
Brussels council Aug. 8 he should
not be prosecuted under the proper-
ty standards bylaw.
"The vehicles are all insured and
licenced. There are no broken win-
dows or doors," Bill Little told
councillors. Two of the vehicles
Brussels village council will pre-
pare a bylaw to install a four-way
stop sign at the corner of John and
Market Streets, near the ball park,
after a complaint from a neighbour-
hood resident.
Harold Subject told council that
the corner is dangerous for chil-
dren. "This year there have almost
been a couple of kids hit." The
After hearing some public con-
cerns regarding the newly proposed
house policies and procedures for
the Brussels, Morris and Grey
Ccmmunity Centre, the recreation
board approved some minor
changes at a meeting last week.
The new policies were put in
place to accommodate the board's
approval of a permanent sales
license for the community centre.
The council of East Wawanosh
met on Aug. 1.
Council accepted a petition for
drainage works by owners from
John Bylsma and others. Tom
Pridham, P. Eng., R.I. Burnside
and Assoc., was appointed as
engineer on the drain extension.
Court of Revision for the
McVittie Municipal Drain Improve-
ment, 1995 was opened at
8:05 p.m. Robert Szusz, Hullett

court.
Two appeals were received. Two

ing hours of Aug. 12, when it

council, and planner Brian Treble,

west sides which front on streets.

council.
Paul Josling, property standards
bylaw enforcement officer, told
council that if the cars carry a cur-
rent or one-year expired licence,
the property standards bylaw does
not apply.
Given Little's comments no
immediate action was taken to
force him to clean up the property
problem, he said, is usually with
the children not heeding the stop
signs, not with the driveits, but
slowing the drivers down will give
them a chance to react to forgetful
children. Subject point out that the
other three corners near the ball
park all have four-way stops.
"I can't see why we can't (install
the stops signs), Reeve Gordon
Workman agreed. "It's too late after
The change to this license rather
than Special Occasion Permits was
precipitated by the LCBO's move
to better control and monitoring of
liquor sales.
With a permanent sales license
the responsibility of serving liquor
will rest with the community cen-
tre. Bartenders and assistants will
be required to complete the Smart
Serve program.

assessment reduced due to a
reduced area. The reduced amount
was added to road assessment.
An assessed property owner, who
was not satisfied with assessing
said he will proceed to the drainage
tribunal.
Notice if proceeding or not
proceeding must be received by
Aug. 16.
Two people were injured as the
result of an accident in East
Wawanosh Twp. at 6 p.m. Satur-
day, Aug. 5.
According to Sgt. Greg King of
the Wingham OPP Karen Bakker,
21, of RRS, Lucknow, was travel-
ling north on Cone. 12. After crest-
ing a hill she moved to the side of
the road to accommodate an
oncoming vehicle driven by Greg
pair's tender to purchase the proper-
ty for $23,359 conditional upon the
zoning change being approved.
There is still a 20-day appeal period
for anyone to come forward with a
protest over council's approval of
the zoning change.
Meanwhile Treble told council
that a development proposed sever-
but Josling said he would check to
make sure the information about
the licences was correct.
Council also dropped complaints
about one homeowner because the
property has been cleaned up but
will continue action against Jim
Bridge who had promised to clean
his property up but hadn't done so
yet.

A bylaw will be prepared for the
September meeting of council to
allow the signs to be installed.
Councillors didn't agree, howev-
er, with a proposal from Councillor
John Lowe to install two other stop
signs in other areas of the village,
worrying about hindering traffic
too much.

leasing for dressing room bars will
also be eligible for the same return.
The only Special Occasion Per-

free bar.
Rental charges will remain the
same as in the past.
Paul Montgomery met warn
council regarding the flooding and
ponding of water at the south end
of Hutton Heights. An option was
suggested. It was decided that a site

Sgt. King said Bakker lost con-
trol on the freshly graded road and
went into the ditch. Her vehicle
rolled over and back onto the road.
She and a passenger, Tanya

Hospital. Bakkert's injuries were
listed as minor, while Kikkert's
were minimal.

dust in the next few weeks. A pro-
posal by Clarkey Holdings Inc. to
build a seniors housing develop-
ment in the north end of the village
will be denied by the province even
though the village and county
approved. "The (province's) atti-
tude seems to be if there is munici-
pal servicing available it should be
used," Treble said. The developers
had planned on providing their own
sewage facilities. "It's too bad that
they can't go ahead."
