e
everything we went
through." The other council
members echoed his sen-
timents.
Council has been involved
in a Lengthy expropriation
process in which the town-
ship was granted the right to
expropriate one-quarter
acre of land from Lorne
Baird of Lot 16, Con. 10 for
construction of the Eadie
Bridge.
The matter stemmed from.
a request made by council
about the possibility of a
government subsidy for 'a
new grader this year. The
townships Galion grader
has undergone repairs
recently and the Wabco
grader is in need of extensive
repairs.
The MTC has agreed to
give the township $209,000
toward the construction of
the bridge in 1981 the same in
1982. A new -grader would
cost approximately $125,000.
After a lengthy discussion,
council decided to repair the
transmission and tandems
on the Wabco grader as well
as check the blade control at
a cost of between $10,000 and
$15,000.
Road Superintendent Ross
Nicholson speculated that
the ministry has forwarded
more money to the
municipalities. now than it
can afford. He said he
wondered if the MTC is
seriously looking for ways to
cut back its.1981 budget.
It was reported that Ken
Dunn •of B. M. Ross and
Associates advised council
that his firm is working on
the design •of the Eadie
Bridge and might have it
completed in two weeks.
After submission to the MTC
it would likely. take three to
four weeks for approval.
Council estimated, that
•tenders for the bridge could
be let by the middle of.Aug-
ust, with construction start-
ing sometime in September.
It was tentatively decided
to make the bridge a winter
work project. Much\ of the
construction on the B Line
bridge was done during, the
winter and it worked out
quite well. •
In other business, two
drainage delegations at-
tended last Tuesday
evening's meeting as Bill
Shifflett of the engineering
firm Gamsby and Mannerow
presented reports on the
Hyslop and McCreight
drains.
The Hyslop Drain will give
outlet to 65 acres on the south'
half of Lots 1 and 2, Con. A.
The total cost is estimated at
approximately $12,000.
C until. provisionally
ado `ted the report on the
drain; but has scheduled a
courrof revision for August 4
at which the assessment for
Bill Sanderson, one of the
landowners involved, will be
•
Rug
assessed. for a cost -benefit
analyis.
A lam contingent of
ratepayers attended to
dieetlss the McCreight
Drain, which is an existing
municipal drain located west
of Wingham near
Whitechurch. It involves
landowners from Turnberry,
East Wawanosh and Kinloss
townships.
The proposal is for repairs
and .improvements to the
existing system for its entire
length. The drain has silted
in heavily in many places
and • has become ingrown
with small , trees. The
estimated cost of the work is
$58,299.
Council provisionally
accepted. Mr. Shifflett's
report on the. McCreight
Drain„ and. said that any
assessment injustices will be
decided upon at the August 4
court of revisions.
Council has received
several complaints about the
township dump. Residents
have complained that the
dump is not being kept up
and there is no gate on the
dump. This allows people to
enter at any time of the day
or night.
MRS.
WILLIAM SOTHERN
estion
It was decided that 'the
farm committee will draw
up a set of instructions to be
followed by the dump
caretaker. A new waste
disposal site also is to be
sought.
Council agreed to insure
the new ballpark lights for
$15,000 wind and lightning
coverage. The Bluevale
Recreation Association had.
hoped for $22,000 coverage to
compensate for the volun-
teer labor used to put up the
lights but councillors said
they did not feel this was
necessary.
The park's foodbooth is to
be insured for $1,000.
Council passed a site plan
for a gravel pit owned by Joe
Kerr' on the northwest half of
Lot 20, Con. C. • .

have been approached by
\residents of the township
concerning plans for the
township's 125th anniversary
