poems prepared by clients of

everyone.

volved in doing research on
Israel and the information

Fred Meieris named
to E. Wawa. council
By Margaret Arbuckle
Fred Meier, a dairy 'far-
mer from the Belgrave area,
has been selected to fill the
vacancy on East Wawanosh
Township Council. He will
fill the position formerly held
by Jim Hunter, who resigned
last month.
Two others applied for the
post: Valerie Bolton from
near Westfield and ' David
Hedley, also from the West-
field area.
Council proceeded to vote
by show of hands. When a
deadlock •was reached
between Mr. Meier and Mr.
Hedley, the names were
placed in a hat and drawn by
lot, with Mr. Meier emerging
as the winner.
The Thacker ditch
proposal. also was discussed
at the special meeting held
April 1. Bill Shifflett, the
township engineer, was
present to answer any
questions.
The involved parties were
invited to attend and express
their opinions. Warren
Knight from the Ministry of
Natural Resources and
Bryan Howard of the Mait-
land Valley Conservation,
Authority also attended the
meeting.
Mr. Shifflett explained to
the gathering of approxi-
mately 20 people that the
various proposals put for-
ward in the preliminary
report were merely tenta-
tive, and that qualifications
and changes can be made to
them.
The estimated costs of tha
various proposals range
from $34,368 to $219,489. The
most costly proposal would
involve bringing the ditch
down along Highway 4 to the
Belgrave Creek.
Dick Moore was in favor of
the latter proposal, because
it would benefit some 20
acres on his farm, however
Mr. Thacker preferred the
least expensive proposal.
Wayne Coultes ,and Glen
Golley told themeeting they
are satisfied with the way
things are now. Yvonne
Coultes said she believed
there is sufficient drainage
on their farm. Mr. Shifflett
told- them if the existing
drainage were improved, it
would `Add- to the::: value of
their farms.
When it became obvious an
impasse had been reached,
Mr. Shifflett suggested
everyone think about the
proposals and continue the
meeting at another time. The'
meeting will resume April 10
at 8 p.m.
Mr. , Thacker' expressed
some annoyance with all the
delays he has encountered.
He saidhe• is determined to
get an outlet and, if council
cannot or will not grant it, he
will take his .case to the
drainage tribunal.
