Drain builds heat
A short meeting at the Zurich
Arena Monday evening for the court
of revision for the Zurich drain.pro-
posal prompted some heated discus-
sion from residents opposed to the
project.
The third and final reading of the
drain project provisionary bylaw
will be read at the next Zurich coun-
cil meeting on January 14.
The estimated costo the drain
project has been reduced from -the
original sum of over $173,000 to
$167,690. Reasons for this change
include the use of rock chutes in-
stead of pipe drop structures in the
construction of the one -and -a -quarter
mile drain.
The purpose of the proposed drain
is to relieve flooding and poor drain-
age within the village of Zurich,
but several Hay township properties
arc assessed as benefitting from the
improved drainage and must share

some Hay township residents to
speak out against the project at
Monday's meeting, citing a lack of
need for the drain and high costs. .
However, the meeting did resolve
the issue of Henry Hendrick's bene-
fit assessment. Council agreed that,
the projected benefit of the Hendrick
property froma new culvert was
overestimated and decided to reduce
his -assessment by $500.
Residents wishing to appeal the

Appeals will be heard before the
