The Lucknow Sentinel, 2015-02-25, Page 66 Lucknow Sentinel • Wednesday, February 25, 2015 Huron -Kinloss Council Valerie Gillies Lucknow Sentinel Building Thermostats During the February 17, 2015 meeting of the Huron - Kinloss Council, the quote from Cliff's Plumbing and Heating was accepted for $12,305.70 to replace a total of 14 thermostats in all municipal buildings. Dur- ing the discussion that fol- lowed it was asked if free WiFi access would eventu- ally be provided in all of the buildings, as well. It was agreed that providing free access would enhance the welcoming atmosphere to tourists and also be useful to residents who frequent the buildings. It was sug- gested that a policy be drafted for free WiFi access throughout the municipal- ity where ever it is possible. Dangerous Dogs In discussing the report on Dangerous Dog Prosecu- tions it was noted that it is very expensive to deal with these issues. The combina- tion of legal fees and board- ing costs for one dog are substantial, with Jim Hanna pointing out that this is eat- ing up funds that in his opin- ion would be more benefi- cial to make improvements and fund projects in the communities. The prosecu- tions have become neces- sary, but are costing the tax- payers a lot of money. Septic Re -Inspection A By -Law was introduced to being the Cycle 2 Septic Re -Inspection Agreement. The first cycle has been com- pleted, however Councillor Don Murray is concerned that there are still 50 proper- ties that are still outstanding in the first round and does not think it wise to proceed with Cycle 2 with that many inspections not done from the first round. In discussion it was pointed out that it would put the entire process off track to delay the begin- ning of Cycle 2 at its planned time. It eventually was agreed that since the proper- ties in non-compliance are readily identifiable as a block within the whole township, that Cycle 2 begin. However, Council needs to come up with a way to get compliance from the 50 who have not had inspections done. A pos- sible route is to have the inspections done without the owner making the appointment, as it is within the rights of the municipality to do so. Another suggestion was to levy hefty fines or court proceedings for those in noncompliance. The mat- ter of how to enforce compli- ance of the septic inspec- tions will be added to Council Agenda in the near future. KIP HELP PHONE Cd FREE EME:RGEN Y GALL 1 •$ •66U•639 RLNAWAY.. SICK.
