Most county councillors, along with county managers, came out to sessions in Wingham and Exeter, last Tuesday and Thursday, to hear residents' concerns with the draft proposal, which is intro- ducing a few new items to the region, including a levy for the pur- chase of a CT scanner for Goderich's Alexandra Marine hospital. During Thursday's session in Exeter, only four of the dozen resi- dents on hand for the presentation took to the microphone. One of them, Goderich resident Deb Baxter, paid kudos to the coun- ty on its plans for an asset -manage- ment program. However, she questioned the wis- dom behind the county chipping in for a CT Scanner by noting such tWEL FARM EQUIPMENT SEAFORTH 519-527-0120 EXETER 519-235-2121 www.teamvIncent.com s CASE 111 purposes do not fall under the mandate of lower -tier governments. "We need some creative solutions to some of these things," she says, adding that, unlike some of the oth- ers who questioned council, she does not favour the idea that county staff should remove some money from the county's reserves to bring down the proposed levy increase. At the end of the two hour-long session, county war- den Deb Shewfelt reflected on some of the comments made by county residents in the two sessions. He said the notion that too much is being spent on road repair is one that requires reflection. "We probably have the best roads of any county in Ontario," he said, adding there are now other areas that need attention. Shewfelt opted not to wade into the scanner debate. "The scanner, I really don't want to go there," he said, but added that though such purchases do not fall under the lower -tier umbrella, the fact remains that many rural hospitals were made possible thanks to deben- tures through municipal councils. The county is set to further debate the draft budget at its April 4 session.

Children of all ages are fascinated and hypnotized by a ditch full of water or a fast - running creek or stream, says Const. Jeff Walraven. He recommends chil- dren be reminded how deadly the fast ice cold water is. "A child only needs seconds to approach a fast flowing body of water and to fall in," he says. If you see any kids doing what kids are known to do: playing in areas where they shouldn't, get them out of there or call the police.
