Then, they who seem so far away, Are only round the bend. — Always remembered by sister Vera and brother-in- law Ed. ANDERSON—In loving memory of Jean, who passed away May 15, 1982.

At its May session council approved an application for a pit silo measuring 27 by 80 feet on the farm • of Jack Thornton, but instructed building inspector Wray Wilson the issuing of the permit would be subject to Mr. Thornton obtaining an agricultural certificate of compliance. At its March council meeting, council made the same decision based on the fact that. a'request from a neighboring resident to build a basement under his trailer home had to be denied because the distances bet- ween the home and the Thornton existing silo and another barn did not meet minimum distance separa- tion requirements for a certificate. At the March session, Mr. Thornton had not applied for a building permit but had informed the building in- spector of his intentions to do so. At the May meeting Mr. Wilson said Mr. Thornton had applied for a permit to build the silo. The building inspector said to his knowledge Mr. Thornton has not obtained a certificate of compliance. "I'm new to this, but I think the same rules should apply to his (Thornton) silo as applied to the trailer home," Coun. Gordon Kaster. "I don't see how we can demand a certificate in one case and ignore it in the other." Deputy Reeve Jack Stafford agreed. "I think we have to have a certificate — as much for his (Thornton) protection as ours." The deputy reeve added the township has required certificates for oilier agricultural structures, in- cluding silos. "I guess that's what we have to do," said Coun. Gerald D'Arcey. In another building matter that's been hanging fire since last summer, council approved a building permit for a building owned by Glen Reidt on Part lot 17, con. 15 in the Lakelet area. Council made it clear it was not happy with the Reidt building__ . - which was: - described as being a shed which was moved to the site, but said council had no !y ired f eci reason to deny a permit because the Huron County Health Unit and the Maitland Valley Conservation Authority have stated they, have no objections to it. "Maybe it's time the township started looking at some kind of occupancy standards to include in our bylaw," Deputy Reeve. Stafford remarked. Other permits approved were for a double garage for Ron Mann and an addition for Mr. Wilson whose building will be inspected by Turnberry Township's of- ficial. Gravel contracts After considering a number of tenders for both pit -run and crushed gravel, council discovered that not only were the tenders of Joe Kerr Construction of Wingham the lowest, but they were lower than Mr. Kerr's prices last year when he was also awarded the contracts. Subject to the approval of the Ministry of Trans- portation and Communica- tions, council approved the Kerr bids to supply pit -run gravel at a cost of $1.05 per cu. yd. and 32,000 yards of crushed gravel at $1.79 per cu. yd. Last year the com- pany's successful bids were $1.14 for pit -run gravel and $1.96 for crushed. A similar situation however did not apply in the case of the purchase of calcium chloride for dust control. The tender of the only applicant, Pollard Bros., was accepted "with regret" by council in the amount of $171.25 per flake ton Last . year-'s.--price-was- $153.35. In submitting the price, Pollard Bros. noted the increase was due to r silo provincial taxes and in- formed council the company is protesting the tax in- crease. In other business, council: Was informed the new rate for tile drainage loans is eight per cent and stated it would accept applications until June 30; Was informed the town- ship's two arenas are both structurally sound; Was advised by the clerk's office that the township has -already exceeded its limit of $1,000 for donation to charitable causes by $375; Proclaimed the week of June 19-25 Senior Citizens' Week; Referred 13 tenders received for the township's drainage maintenance pro- gram to Maitland Engineer- ing Services of Wingham for review and recommenda- tion; Adopted the report on the Day Municipal Drain as prepared by Maitland Engineering Services.
