the "document which looks after

as lot sizes, set backs, . etc. and

Mrs. ElsaHaydon asked°how,

learned it was impossible to
determine a specific date.

Mr. Vintar reported the initial

Sept. 27 and 28 in St. Joseph's
Flall, Stratford. He said the
whole focus of the workshop -was

At their regular meeting last
Thursday, Goderich Town
Council discussed matters per-
taining
to the recently -
announced Local Incentives
Program for 1972-73. • Coun-
cillors were asked to think
about any projects which might •
be undertaken with the help of
this program and reminded that
the final day for filing would be
December 31.
Minimum •size of a project
would provide for 15 -man hours
per month.
Reeve Paul Carroll said that
in considering the program, four
things came to mind that might
be given further study and
thought. More• work needs to be
done on the ;lakefront, he said.
Work is needed on some areas
of Snug Harbor, a survey might
be undertaken" of resources for
the Recreation Board (in con-
nection with the recent hiring of
a full-time Recreation Director)
and work could be done at _Har-
bor Park.
Despite the opinion of some,
Mr. Carroll noted, he felt last

' been quite successful.

Letter from Envir�ament Ministry
touches .ff'Listowel council. debate
A letter from D.A. McTavish,
director, projects operations
branch; Ministry of the Environ-.
ment, had Listowel Town Coun-
cil. spitting in anger on Monday
evening. M
The letter from Mr. McTavish
stated a meeting of represen-
tatives of the Ontario
Federation of Ag9ri;,culture, the
Perth Federation of Agriculture,
staff from the Ministry- and the
Hon. James Auld; Minister .of
the Environment, had been held -
on Sept. ,20.
The -. letter said plroblems•
associated with the', assembling
of land for spray irrigation on
short notice were reviewed and
it was agreed that arrangements
would be completed at an early
date for renting the land which
may be required for spray
irrigation in 1973. This pre-
arrangement of land; the letter
claimed, will assist in im-
plementing" the Spray program
for next year if it is required to
spray the effluent . from the
waste stabilization ponds.
What really had council up in
arms was the paragraph which
read, "It is planned that there
will be a press release concer-
ning the results of the above
meeting."
The letter concluded, "We
will continue to keep you ad-
vised on the, arrangements
associated with the spray
irrigation program. Staff from
this office will be in contact with
Campbell Soup Co, as well as'
• soThe of the area farmers to
complete arrangements for ren-
ting of land for the 1973
season.';
A report of this meeting ap-
peared in the Sept. 28 issue of
The Listowel Banner, with the
information coming from a
telephone interview with John
Vander Eyk, a director of the
Perth Federation of Agriculture,
• one of the men who had atten-
ded the meeting. No press
release., has been received from
the department by that paper, or
the Signal Star, to date.
Cox3n.. Gerald Gross, chair-
man of council's sewage and
sanitation committee, commen-
ted, "I think it is amazing it is
necessary to read in the press
every time something is done
that may cost us money. It is a
sad state of affairs such things
are done without our con-
sultation. I think we should be
advised of such meetings in the
future.'
Coun: Vince Judge said, "The
item in The, Banner is quoting
Mr. Vander Eyk, we haven' l
received the press release
referred to in the letter."
_ Coun. Arne Kotanen said, "In
the first. place , the spray
program was an experiment and
I said then we• `should not have
to pay for the ptogram, and The
Banner quotes Mr. Vander Eyk
as suggesting the department
will absorb the cost."
Deputy , Reeve E.W. Jones
commented, "J don't think it is
right; we are one of the prin-
cipals in the matter and should
not have to read it in the paper
first: A group of people not elec-
ted are spending our money. I
don't think we should tolerate
it. We should write the minister
to tell:him so. We should have
part of the meeting, .even
as spectators:

Coun, Gross said, ""I feet the
department should know our
use because of run-offs from the
lagoon."
Mr. • Macdonald said"the run—
off occurred from two leaks in
the lagoon in the spring which
were later patched sand . from
over -spraying on .the.. land
owned by the Ministry of the
lanvironment which operates the
lagoon which is used by Camp-
bell Soup Company Ltd. (70 per °
cent) and by the Town of
Listowel (30 per cent,)
Mr, Vander Eyk said that this
-was indeed .the .oaae..-
• The lagoon .land slopes
toward my back fields which are
right behind the lagoon and I
couldn't use them for pasture.
The water resources told me
that in order to pay me compen-
sation, they would have -to have
some kind of contract. They
wanted to' use my .band for
spraying because it. was .the.most
suitable but I told them I wan-
ted no part of it — and after this
I certainly don't. They have a
few pipes on my field right now,
but very few and there is very
little spraying being done in my
fields. The money I'm getting is
really 'compensation."
Mr: Vander Eyk said- that 30
acres which he has adjacent to
the ,lagoon, approximately,one.
half of that amount was unable
to be used by him to pasture his
cattle because of the ruri-off of
effluent from the lagoon.
Mr. Macdonald noted that the
run-off was so bad that it
washed out some'of Mr. Vander
Eyl 's six-inch tile in the fields.
Charges of. "conflict of'in-
terest" on the part of Mr. Van-
der Eyk and complaints by
Listowel council because they
were not invited' to the meeting
Toronto also had Mr
MacDonald seething.
Mayor Kilberg, talks about
`conflict of interest' --well, I'd
like to know what the hell
Deputy Reeve Bill, Jones does
for a living? (Mr. Jones is. em-
ployed with the Campbell Soup
Company Ltd.) And as for not
being invited to a . meeting,
Listowel- was invited to- a
meeting about the lagoolh by the
Agricultural Committee of Perth
County Council on Aug. 28, but
they didn't bother to come. In
fact, Bill Jones said he wasn't
going to sit down and talk about
the Listowel lagoon with a
bunch of fanatics from the
Federation of Agriculture," Mr.
Macdonald reported:

for . the Ministry of the

was chaired by Reeve Homer

what was' the use of us inviting
