Times-Advocate, 1985-01-09, Page 17Hay reeve terms
Predicting that 1985 would be "a
year of challenge", Hay township
reeve Lionel Wilder briefly outlined
some of the issues to be dealt with in
the ensuing 12 months at the first
January meeting of Hay township
council.
First on the list was the fate of the
proposed Lake Huron water pipeline.
A letter from MPP Jack Riddell holds
out little hope for provincial funding;
opposition leader David Peterson's
request for a meeting of the interested
parties has not yet been acknowledg-
ed by environment minister Andy
Brandt.
Wilder said the township seems to
be "beating a dead horse; govern-
ment priorities favour permanent
rather than seasonal development ".
The reeve added he hoped the pipeline
would somehow become a reality, as
$25,000 had already been spent on
engineering studies and other
expenses.
Clerk Joan Ducharme and
engineering consultant Burns Ross
are still working out the costs to each
affected property owner before sen-
ding out letters asking if they would
be willing to advance up -front money
for the estimated $2.5 million cost, H
the township's borrowing is restricted
to $700,000.
Other matters on the horizon are
the zoning bylaw change dispute with
Exeter which will be brought before
the OMB this spring, the completion
of the township ball park. the new zon-
ing bylaw targeted for the end of 1986,
(with eight public meetings schedul-
ed as part of the lengthy procedure),
and the hydro corridor controversy.
Referring to the latter, Wilder said
the line will not benefit Huron as it
passes through,--and-he-is-opposed So._
it. However. at present no one knows
where the towers will go, what size
they will be, or how much Ontario
Hydro will offer farmers in
compensation.
"Rest assured I'll be saying no",
Wilder said. but emphasized that at
present no concrete proposal exists to
oppose.
Dashwood police village trustees
Nancy Rader, Bob Boogemans and
Ken Rader attended the meeting to
discuss a restructuring of fire -fighting
arrangements with Hay and Stephen
townships. The municipalities are in-
terdependent; Dashwood has the
building and manpower, but no
money to replace its 1954 fire truck.
The townships have access to a much
broader tax base, but could not man
their own fire departments as their
manpower would be scattered across
the townships.
Dashwood wants to retain its
physical facilities and its fire depart-
ment. "Otherwise, what's left of the
town", Nancy Rader asked.
Council concurred with Dashwood's
township to discuss a reasonable solu-
tion, which may result in the forma-
tion of a fire board among the three.
with each paying in proportion to the
assessment in the area they are
responsible for protecting.
Two public meetings held previous-
ly whose results were nullified
because only one representative from
the county's planning committee was
present were held again. This time
Warden Paul Steckle joined Reeve
Wilder to make up the required two
members. The proposed amendments
had been recirculated, and once again
no objections were registered.
One amendment changes the
designation of the St. Joseph Shores
subdivision from recreational to ur-
ban, in effect enlarging the boun-
daries of the village of St. Joseph to
include the subdivision.
The other, the result of a severance
application by Gary and Leo Masse,
amends the land use policy of Hay's
secondary plan to allow some perma-
1985
nent residences on land designated
recreational, provided the full-time
use of such properties was establish-
ed prior to the amendment.
Both amendments now go to the
Huron County planning and develop-
ment committee.
Works department employee
Michael Masse was presented with a
certificate from Sheridan College on
successful completion of a skills
development road grader course held
at Auburn. He also received a cer-
tificate for passing a hand signals
course.
Road superintendent Ross Fisher
reported he had gone $6,822.53 over
the projected 1984 road budget of
$348,800. He is applying for the re-
maining amount of the 52 percent
MTC subsidy. He was asked to bring
a draft of specifications for a new
township pick-up truck to the next
meeting. The specifications must
have MTC approval to be eligible for
a subsidy. Tenders will then be call-
a real bargain by paying a retainer
fee of only $3,030 per year, and also
with the necessity of having a fire
truck stationed in Dashwood.
The two municipalities agreed to
arrange a meeting with Stephen

of course. eventually, spring.
January is a long dull month with
most people taking a break after all
the fuss of the holiday season. If
anyone or group would like to bring
a program. it would be very welcome.
On Wednesday evening, the Ladies
Auxiiary held their first meeting of
the IOew Year. The residents' choir
prodded the entertainment for the
everting, followed by refreshments.
During the business part of the
meeting, the installation of officers
tole place.
The Leandre Bedard family provid-
ed a musical program for the
residents on Wednesday afternoon
which was very much enjoyed.
Mr. Warner of the apartments is
providing organ music for our listen-
ing pleasure in his spare time.
Bingo was enjoyed on Friday even-
ing followed by refreshments.
The Sunday evening chapel service
was conducted by Mr. Merlin Bender
of the Conservative Mennonite
Church.

a year of challenge'
ed for a new truck.
A date of February 1 has been set
to meet with Dale Dignan to discuss
the restoration of the • Fansville
Wesleyan Methodist Cemetery. Last
year the township allocated $1,500 for
stone restoration and landscaping.
The township enclosed the cemetery
with a heavy chain strung between
steel posts. Dignan wants permission
to install three marble markers at a
total cost of $570. The markers are to
replace stones damaged beyond
repair.
Wilder said he does not want to
discourage those who spend time and
energy improving these old
cemeteries and they deserve a great
deal of credit. However, Hay is
responsible for three ancient
cemeteries, and Wilder wondered if
the township could afford to replace
every irreparable stone with a mar-
ble marker.
A bylaw authorizing the clerk to
borrow $400,009 to carry on township
busiaess was passed.
