Safety needed at hazardous Highway 21 By James Friel "I'm left with the terrible idea that so- BAYFIELD - Bayfield council directed meone is going to have to get killed there Clark Pat Graham to write a letter to the before something is done," said Reeve Dave Ministry of Transportation and Com- Johnston. munication (MTC) asking for a cross walk across Highway 21 from Main Street to the mall on the east side. The discussion took place at the regular council meeting Oct. 15. A senior citizen of the village, John Marks, complained that he had almost been hit by a car while crossing the highway after repeatedly checking the road. Members of council agreed the in- tersection is hazardous and decided to re- quest some kind of control for the crossing from MTC. Council has received many complaints about the intersection and the danger in crossing and have forwarded these concerns to the ministry in the past. Members were concerned that a serious accident will have to occur before MTC rectifies the situation. Hydro plan adopted Council decided to purchase four high pressuredights and locate them according to the plan suggested by Ontario Hydro. The lights will be placed on Stark, George, Blair and Taflourd Streets. Council also discussed the street lighting plan for the business area. Reeve Dave Johnston suggested placing one of the new lights in the downtown, district about a week before the ratepayers' spring meeting, to allow the group input into the street light decision. Councillor Lloyd Huffman was against the idea and said council is empowered by the citizens. of Bayfield to make the decision. The decision should be made now and crossing without input from the ratepayers' associa- tion, he said. Reeve Johnston replied that to determine the type of lighting best suited to the Main Street he hoped to "assemble as much infor- mation as possible." Purchase investigated Village lawyer Paul Ross was asked to do preliminary work to establish the viability of the Harbour Lights Developments Ltd. of- fer of a parcel of land east of Highway 21 on, the Bayfield River. The preliminaries include investigating the village's zoning bylaw and contacting the Ausable-Bayfield Conservation Authori- ty to discover how the property could be developed. The parcel of land was offered to council in a letter read at the Oct. 1 meeting. The company estimated the land to be worth $225,000.
