In addition te hearimng how the proposaI origilnated andftbe steps tb followed in the approval proeess, committee members and those* in attendance viewed a short video on what -the projeet entails. Treated sewage (sludge) from the Region's various sewage pl ants wdill be stered at the Cor- tt Creek facility until'it can be used as fertilizer 'by area farmers (see stery on page 21). Although he did not abject ta how the sludge is used, Drumm criticized the Region for not seek- in private secter involvement in thpr'et. thimk the Regn should be spending $10 mlion on sometbing the private sector can do better and that will save us a lot of money," he said.. Committee chair and regional councillor Marcel BruneIle, a member of Durham's works com- inittee, replied that the private sectar option is stili possible. Cane noted that a sludge faci- lity in Halten Region is operated by a private contracter, although owned by Halten. He suggested a similar arrangement is possible for Durham, as long as the Regfion retains ownership. Dirumm then asked about the number of trucks using the faci- lity on a daily basis and poential odour problems. Cane estiniated that there will be "20 21 trucks a day» and assureci Drumm that odour will not be a problem. "We welcome people e take a tour of the Halten facility with us and see and smell for them- selves,» be'said. 1 After stressing bis opposition ta the proposai, Drummn and Brunelle engaged in a brief spat after the latter ruled that the audience could not ask questions af Cane or Lee. "PMn surprised the public was nat invited te comment at this meeting,» said Drumm, in refer- ring te the approximately 25 -area residents in attendance. A slightly angry Brunelle reterted that the presentation was mot p art of a legaily advert- ised "public meetiing" and was for the benefit of the committee. "You know- the process," Brunelle toîd Drumin. I!m won- dering why you're surprised.» Drunxr responded that when. he was committee chair "the public was always invited ta comment-.but tbat's your rul- ing." Brunelle explained that allow- ing public discussion at; Monday's meeting would have been point- less since the committee has no contraI, over the decision. He advised anyone with con- cerns about the jproposal te attend a public 'information meeting being held at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday in the Centennial Building on Centre Street South. Following the meeting, council- lor Dennis Fox told The Free Press that while he does not object te the proposaI, he bas concerns about the public consul- tation process. Fox said he aasumed that Thickson's Point residents had been specifically solicited for their opinions,, but has sine learned that was mot the case.
