Present were Mayor Umscheid, Councillors llonner and Hingley, and Municipal Administrator Lynda Cyr. The minutes of the meeting held on June 15, 1995 were read. Mayor Umscheid moved the adoption of these minutes. CARRIED. A community profile from the Economic Development Committee was received and Lynda Cyr is to update it. Councillor Hingley reported that Brenda McDonald has been hired as the Manager for the Marquis Foundation. Councillor Monner stated that he had attended the last Solid Waste Management Authority Meeting, and they have appointed a Citizen Liason Committee — which consists of residents from the County. Blahne Sukut has been appointed from our area. Mayor Umscheid reported that the Recreation- Board had agreed to sponsor the Sportsmanship trophy for the awards at the school held June 29. The recreation board also agreed to lend the Slo Pitch team $ 2,605.59 for the construction of the roof on the beef gardens. Fire Chief,' Don .Holmes, Bill Brown-and-Mayor Umscheid attended the meeting in Vulcan for the Emergency Public Warning System. Lynda Cyr said the siding of the outside of the village office building cannot be covered by Infrstructure funds as the project was submitted one day after the announcement.of the deadline for 'application approval. Therefore the cost for this will have to come from Village funds. - As. there is still money available for the fiscal year 1997/98 and 1998/99, we have until September 30, 1995 to submit a new project. This was tabled until the August meeting. There was a discussion about the use of the tractor and mower for cutting grass in the Village. The current rate-is $ 45.00 per hour with an operator. A letter is to be sent to CP Rail asking them to cut the grass on their property or saying the Village will do it and send them a bill. Pioneer Grain is to be billed for cutting grass on two occassions. A chequing account will be set up for the- Bike Path as there will be bills to be paid as work commences. This will come out of the Bike Path G.I.C. which con­sists of the donations to date. The tenders received for the street paving project were read and discussed. Councillor Monner made a motion not to accept any of these tenders as they feel they are too high.

Our county road grants have been cut about $250,000,1 think that's the right figure. In this area we now have many soft spots in our roads. We do not have a construction crew, all our efforts are on maintenance. Usually after the fact, because the maintenance crew has too much to do, such as crack filling on the paved roads, sign replacement, culvert installation and so on. With about 2000 miles of developed roads in the county we are going to have to rebuilds roads soon. We can see around here what happens when an area of a road that should be rebuilt is patched. What is the solution when money is tight? Part of this County responding to less govt, money is the road maintenance operators have to cut the weeds in their divisions, This takes them off of the road grader from 2 to 3 weeks. Also they like to take their holidays in the summer, so with no extra people on staff the roads have to wait. We have all beat driving around wondering why our roads are so rough, well with new people around next year don't expect it to get any better. Four of the present councillors are not seeking re-election, also there will be 9 councillors instead of 11. It will be hard to get anything going after the election, especially if there should end up being 5 or 6 new people. Now if some of these new people come in with an 'axe to grind' not much can be done until they learn what can and can't be done. As I have said before the taxpayers who live along highway 23/24 have a lot different attitude about county roads. They have enjoyed a good Gov't, of Alberta maintained highway for 25 years or more, fixing roads out east or where ever and raising their taxes to pay for it, is going to be a hard sell. It is in this area where 2 or 3 of the new councillors may come from, you can all guess what can happen next. There is a new Government of Alberta transportation man in Lethbridge and he was at our August meeting. He wants the county to redo our 5 year road plan as budget restraints have changed our options. It is hard to say that a road we built to secondary road standard, 842 south, is going to stay a gravel road. Many hard to get dollars were sport to build that road wider and now more money to maintain it. Government cut backs are hurting the county in a big way. If we didn't have some money in a road reserve, I don't know if we could of finished 534 (Lomond Road) next year. I believe we need to maintain our paved roads at all costs. At a meeting with Steve West in Lethbridge on August 8, he said that is the Alberta Governments priority also. In the near future the highway to Courts will be a 4 lane highway. Those yellow 1\2 tons we see roaring down the highway at 20 miles an hour will be a thing of the past come April 1, 1996 or possibly sooner, according to West, as a private contractor will be taking over the maintenance of the primary highways. The gravel truck that hit the train is back from the body shop and a new trailer has replaced the old one. This unit should be hauling gravel by now I think. Every councillor is hollering for the gravel crew as their is lot's to do. There was some roads gravelled south and east of Milo from the Marks Pit. The rest of the roads in this division will have to wait until the crew move to the Brown Pit in Arrowwood. Jim Flemming has retired after working for the county for a many years. Harry Boersma as resigned from the agriculture crew. These two men are not being replaced at this time. We are going to try and get by until spring and see if we need them then. Grant LahdEnvironmental Protection Minister Ty Lund has stated that existing agricultural water rights will be protected under revised water management legislation to be released for public comment later this fall. Mr. Lund indicated that farmers applying for water licenses under the new legislation will have their license back-dated to the time when they started withdrawing water. WHO'S GETTING ALL THE MONEY? These are the Municipal Areas that correspond to the County or Munici­pality. Also, the payment levels for this area have beenraised $1.25/ acre.

Spent a few days and nights with John and Estelle Stumpf at Nepean, Ontario. We toured Ottawa then the four of us went to Quebec City for sight seeing. They returned home and we continued on to the Gaspe Penninsula, took the ferry over to new Brunswick for a couple of days driving through and on to P.E.I. for about three days. We spent July 1st at Charlottetown watching a large fireworks display in the bay. We were most impressed with this tiny province. People are wonderful, scenery is gorgeous and it is very clean. The houses and churches are all painted with Over to Nova Scotia and drove the Cabot Trail, very high, rugged and similar to the Logan Pass in Montana. At Sidney N.S. we caught the ferry for 5 1/2 hour ride to Newfoundland. Spent about a week there. Stayed at Gros Morae National Park, at Cow Head on the ocean, Comer Brook, St. John, Gander plus a few other places. Saw puffins and a Fin whale on a boat tour, also a 5,000 year old iceburg. Went through a Beothunk village ( extinct Indians indigenous to Newfoundland) and a museum. Saw Citadel Hill and Cape Spear at St. John. Back on the ferry to Nova Scotia again and Lewisburg, which is the oldest restored fort: f North America. Then went to Halifax for a few days, toured the city on a double decker English bus. On to Peggy's Cove and across the Annapolis Valley. To Cornwallis where Bill did his naval training, Digby, Nova Scotia and another Ferry ride to St. John's, New Brunswick. Over to Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, New York where relatives have a fishing lodge. Then on to London, Ontario and Stratford-on-Avon which is beautiful - swans, theatres and flowers. Home through the northern states. We thought the Newfoundland people the most gracious. They make you want to go back. They have a saying "There are no strangers in Newfoundland, just friends you haven't met". However the economy is not good, they are highly taxed GSt plus PST = 19%. Regardless of what one hears about the cod fish coming back, after talking to the fisherman, they won't be back. Therefore there are cod fish farms in the ocean offshore.

Next Fall when you see geese head­ing south for the winter flying a- long in a "V" formation, you might be interested in knowing what sci­ence has discovered about why they fly that way. It has been learned that as each bird flaps its wings, it creates an uplift for the bird immediately following. By flying in a "V" formation, the whole flock adds at least 71% greater flying range than if each bird flew on its own. (People who share a common di­rection and sense of community can get where they are going quicker and easier, because they are travel­ling on the thrust of one another.) Whenever a goose falls out of form­ation, it suddenly feels the drag and resistance of trying to go it alone, and quickly gets into form­ation to take advantage of the lif­ting power of the bird immediately in front. (If we have as much sense as a goose, we will stay in forma­tion with those who are headed the same way we are going.) When the lead goose gets tired, he rotates back in the wing and another goose flys point. (It pays to take turns doing hard jobs - with people or with geese flying south. ) The geese honk from behind to ecnour- age those up front to keep up their speed. (What do we say when we honk from behind?) Finally (Now I want you to get this), when a goose gets sick, or is wounded by gun shots and falls out, two geese fall out of forma­tion and follow him down to help and protect him. They stay with him until he is either able to fly or until he is dead, and they then launch out on their own or with a- nother formation to catch up with the group. (If we have the sense of a goose', we will stand by each other like that.) Pastor Martin Olsen and Edna and their girls Tenille and Joy Lynn were recent visitors in the Milo and Lomond areas.
