Zurich updates its dog bylaw By Scott Nixon TIMES -ADVOCATE STAFF ZURICH — In response to complaints of vicious dogs scaring residents last month, Zurich has updated its dog bylaw. The new bylaw, passed at council's Nov. 11 meeting, states owners cannot let their dogs run at large, must be on a leash and must be licensed. The new bylaw also sets out fines for dog owners. Offences such as not having your dog on a leash or not licensing your dog will cost the owner $28.75. More serious offences such as a dog attacking or biting a person will cost $57.50. There are also $28.75 fines for allow- ing your dog to defecate on property and not putting a leash or muzzle on a 'convicted vicious dog. A is leader needed Coun. Barb Jeffrey told council a new charismatic leader for the Babe Siebert arena fund-raiser is needed after the resignation as chairperson of Shelley Rodgers -Bedard. Jeffrey said she is now looking for a replacement for Rodgers - Bedard, who also resigned from council in September. And while canvassing for the arena project was to begin in the summer, Jeffrey said the committee is now hop- ing for a February canvassing effort. Council has still received no applica- tions for Rodgers-Bedard's former council seat. Showing support Council supported a motion from the Town of Seaforth stating that all employed paramedics remain employed regardless of how service delivery changes in the future. The motion is in reaction to the province's downloading responsibility of ambulances to munici- palities. As a result of the downloading, munic- ipalities can either run the ambulance service as a municipal service, contract out the service or negotiate a contract with the current operators. Permission to Tight a tree Council granted permission to the Alzheimer Society of Huron County to decorate a village tree with blue lights or ribbons as part of the society's "Forget -Me -Not -Trees" program during Christmas. The decorated trees are in memory of those who have died from Alzheimer Disease and. in support of those suffer- ing from the disease. Exandarea residents get their stop signs By Craig Bradford TIMES -ADVOCATE STAFF EXETER — Ask and ye shall receive. That's what residents at Exandarea Meadows Housing Co-operative located at 51 Church SC found out at Monday night's council meeting. Exandarea members requested and got action from council on traffic con- cerns on William St. near the building. The co-op is near the Nabisco soccer fields and the south side of Elliott Park and is in frequent use in the summer and in the winter by children for tobog- ganing. Exandarea co-ordinator Wendy Bright sent a letter to council and residents Roberta Mortley and Sue Blommaert appeared before council to express their concerns. The gravel portion of William St. north of Church St. have the co-op members confused and they are 'also concerned about the safety of the children in the area in relation to cars speeding up the Church St. hill into the co-op parking area without slowing. "It's a very dangerous spot at the best of times and especially so in winter," Blommaert said. Deputy Reeve Dave Urlin agreed. "It's a wonder no one has been hit there yet," he said. Bright's letter suggested a four-way stop at the intersection and council eventually agreed the stop signs would be put in. Other notes from the meeting: What the Hay? Council decided -to take Hay Township up on their offer to meet over extending the town water pipeline into the town- ship. There are well users in the township that are desperate for town water either due to a dry well or contaminated water. Reeve Roy Triebner pointed out any potential deal with Hay depends on whether, any agreement can be made before local municipal amalgamations become official. Coun. Robert Drummond's suggestion to stick with a motion passed earlier this fall to not talk about water line exten- sions into neighbouring townships till municipal mergers are final was defeat- ed. Drummond was the only nay vote on going ahead with a meeting with Hay officials. Open for traffic Mayor Ben Hoogenboom was on hand along with Usborne officials for the removal of the barricades at the bridge on Morrison Line at the dam on Monday. The road is now open for traffic. Cadet tag day Council approved the Huron Park Artny Cadets request to hold a Tag Day fund-raiser on the day of the Exeter Santa Claus parade, Nov. 27. Trivett celebrates Trivett Anglican Church is holding a 25th anniversary celebration for its shared space agreement with Precious Blood Mission on Nov. 21.
