WARDEN'S ADDRESS
Past Wardens, Fellow Council Members. Ladies and Gentlemen:
At this time I would like to thank my fellow
colleagues for electing me as the Warden for the County of
Elgin for the yearl982.
Times are not quite what they shQuld be ,~ with
depressed market conditions in both industry and agriculture.
The papers, radio, T.V., printing and talking the doom and
gloom of the world, it makes me wonder where we are headed.
It reminds me of the story of the elderly gentleman
who lived back in the country about a mile or so off shuSY
highway, no hydro, no newspaper. He had one son' whom he sent
to coll~ge.Out on the busy highway, he had a hot dog and
hamburger stand with which he did a thriving business. One
day his son came home from' college and told his, pareuts how
bad things were in the world - the depressed markets and
people out'of work. The father listened and thought about
the signs advertising his little stand one mile each way on
the highway. He thought I'll save some money on rent if I
take them down. He saved a little, but business dropped.
He cut his bun, weiner and hamburg order, business slowed
down some more. Eventually it got, really slow. He went home
to his wife one night when things were very slow and said,
you know mother. it's a good thing we sent OUr son to coll~ge.
He was right; the economy and business has really slowed
down.'
My message is - let's not back up or stop. The
moment we stop, we start to roll backwards and then it is a
lot harder to go ahead than-it is to back up. Let's keep up
our maintenance and construction to the tune of Our Government
grants and no more. If grants are cut we will have to cut.
If we spend less than our grants, the Government gives it to
someone else. The only other thing that comes to mind is the
white paper on planriing~ Two more readings and we could be
into new planning boards.
I would like to thank 1. P.Warden Montei-th for his
aggressiveness in streamlining much of County Council's
labours. I hope'to carryon this work with the help of my
very knowledgeable colleagues.
1,
Thank you.

This being-my first. report on the forests of Elgin
County. I must comment Mr. Jack Baker has. had things well in
hand. Loggers know the Tree By-:Law. and ask before they
begIn cutting. I receivenumerou$ calls regarding cutting
of firewood,fence row clearings,Bnd--the.cuttirig 'of trees
obstructing, tile drains. Bulldozing projects have been at
a virtual halt this Summer,; perhaps a consequen,ce of high
interest rates.

There exists still some land clearing permits in
the County that were never called in, and. lack an expiry date.
Work on one permit . was 'completedthis FalL A section of the
farm .was reforested,and a healthy stand of six to.ninefoot
pine. spruce and cedar now occupies the area. Mr. Baker had
outlined the desired procedure in 1974 and the farmer followed
through most favourably.
I would like to recommend for consideratio~ a change
in the Elgin County Tree By~Law. The planting of s~edlings
should precede clearing by at least one year. This area,
equal to_the area to be cleared,shouldbe supervised fora
period of three. years. This would eliminate possible problems
with.farmers.re~planting ~nd_would insure the prQsperity of
the new ,stand.
I would like to take this opportunity. to thank the
Members of Council and George Leverton and his Office Staff,
for without their assistance and advice this could have been a
troublesome year for,me. The Ministry of Natural Resources at
Aylmer, their Office Staff, MervTodd, Brian Kincaid, Township
Clerks and Staff,havealso volunteered a most appreciated
assistance. A special vote of gratitude is extended to the
Agricultural Committee; who took time outside Council to
assist_and accompany me QUmy inspections;

WEED INSPECTOR'S REPORT
October Session, 1982
To the Warden and Members of the Elgin County Council'.
As' Weed Inspector,' ~ have the advantage' of seeing
parts of Elgin County mo~tpeople clauot. I have compared
many crops, across this County 'and have' foutl.d ;this'year's
yield below that of 1981. The relatively dry period 10&ar1y
Spring followed by a wet spell in May-June,' set planting
behind schedule. Some crop damage occurred. in 'winter whea,t
and beans in low lying areas. The early frost at the end ,of
August took its toll in tobacco, soyabeans,whitebeans and
vegetable crops as' well. Theaefactors which have resulted
in a poorer yield in this year's crops, have not affected the
hardiness of the weed population. Many farmers' with crops
such as carrots. tobacco, beans, potatoes and other vegetables
have spent a' few hours mowing the area their fields border
County Roads. This hasbeeri very effective in eliminating
further weed problems. They have saved ,the Township and
County time and money, improved the appearance of the roadside,
as well as their image in the community. It is most gratifying
to see roadsides so well manicured anddefi?itely leaves a
favourable impression 'on visitors to the County.
Weed ,spray:i;ng, 'programs ort, sol'liefa~s appears
inadequate. On further inqufry", the explanation on too many
occasions was metric-imperial 'conversion difficulties in
measuring chemicals. In many cases weeds were unaffected-by
too low chem1cal,conten~; ,in others crop, damage occurred by
too_- h1ghacontent.,I w:ouldliketQ'recommend ,instruction
sheets 'in imperia_I measuremtmt, 'including precautions,',be
made avai'lableto ,farme'rs'purchaslng chemicals for use in
their.olderimperial.;...basedsprayers. With the use of bar
sprayers or rub-bar treaters, possibly improper tractor speed
during application has affected the success>of their 'program.
Towrishipsin Elgin County ,have operated satisfactory
spraying programs this year with few exceptions. Yarmouth
Township, in particular, has managed a most effective weed
cutting procedure. Mowing extends fence to fence having been
thoroughly done twice, and in specifiC areas, a third time.
The County, ,again this year" is inadequate in
specific areas with their 'weed control. Requests to have
certain locations cut were made twice and other requests have
been completely ignored. The explanation received was
insufficient funds available for weed cutting. It is hoped
Council will see fit to increase monies budgeted for road
weed control, as we need to clean up for the 1985 Plowing
Match.
The railways in Elgin County have been and continue
to be a problem. Insufficient funds had been budgeted for
weed control. Notices were issued to the American-owned
railway systems. The Canadian National Railway was most
co-operative when need arose for their attention. Railway
officials became discouraged with their spraying program when
farmers issued complaints of spray damage. Mowing projects
were initiated this year. Unfortunately, some inconsiderate
individuals have used the railway property as a place to
dump brush and refuse. This makes mowing difficult to
impossible, in specific areas. Demanding the railway mow
weeds to prevent their encroachment on adjoining properties
seems ridiculous, when these same property owners discard
their rubbish on railway property.
:331
- 2 -
The Mini~try of Transportati9n and Communications
has been spraying their roada1l6wance, covering more miles
of highway this year than in the past. At the March meeting
with the M.T.C. called by the district Weed Inspectors, we
were promised increased funds will be spent on highway
spraying 1n1983. ,The M.T~C..haspurchased a largeall~terrain
sprayer that is: capable of'maneuveringin most every type of
roadside. Another meeting is scheduled for later this month,
at which we hope' to' inspect their new sprayer and continue
improving ourworkirig agreement with this Ministry. Iwill
be promoting meetings such as these with the railway people so
that we, the Weed Inspect?rsof Southwestern'Ontario, will
be'tter understand their problems a'nd they ours.
Elgin is a,large County requiring ,the co.;...operation
of many people in an area of such diversified croppi~g. I have
enjoyed working intheCountythi~ year and look forward to
1983, serving"the'people to the best of my ability.
This is my first report to Council as a group and
not just a Committee. I would like to thank you for the
oppo~tun1ty of meeting and serving peop~ein such a rewarding
capacity. Sincere appreciation !s extended ,to George' Leverton
and his Staff, who took the time to answer my many questions
and locate information I required. Clerks and their Staff in
the Townships have made me'feel most welcome, Road' Grews were
courteous and friendly, Agricultural Representatives and their
Staff were most helpful.
ALL of which is respectfully submitted.

DIRECTOR/ADMINISTRATOR REPORT
TO THE NJ'.ROEN AND MEI1BERS OF ELGIR_COUNTY COUNCIL:
Attached are the finaneialre~rts_ covering Elgin Manor, Terrace
Lodge and the Byrne Rest Home which ia a, Satellite Home of Elgin County
Homes for Senior citizens. These reports cover the 10 months ending
October 31, 1982.
Also enclosed 19s full copy of the budget for 1982 which covers
ElqinManor, Terrace Lodqe anq the Byrne, Rest Home. From thie you will
see 1'19 have listed the 1981 Actual; 1982 Proposed and the actual up to
October 31, 1982. I am confident that for the next two montbs we should
be able to live within the 1982 budget for coats.
You I'Till see from these reportathat as of October 31, 1982 we liad
140 residents at Elgin Manor, with' 5 residents beds being reserved for
residents in the General Hospital making a total of 145 beds in full
occupancy. At Terrace Lodge We had a total of 93 residents ,in occupancy
and 4 beds being reserved for residents in the General Uospital, making
a total of 97.
Our waiting lists are again very long for the type of care that
offer. Residents waiting to enter Elgin Manor amount to 29 male, 67
female and 0 married couples. At Terrace Lodge, we have 24 male, 43
female and 3 married couples.
In Borne cases residents in the community hava placed their name on
the waiting lists just to be safe incase their health deteriorates where
they will require institutionalized.care.
For memhers of County Council who are not familiar with our Satellite
Home, this is a rest home taat was converted from a nursing home in Fingal
Which came under our Satellite Home system some years ago. As of the
31st_of October "e had 5 residents undar the jurisdiction of the Elgin
County Homes for Senior Citizens program.
Although there are not that many residents in our Satellite Home
this is certainly an excellent program as it gives the senior citizens
who make application to our IIome another alternative from institutional
living and this home is much appreciated by the senior citizens who reside
there.
we
The pOlicy adopted by Elgin County Homes for Senior Citi2ens
COmmittee of Management some years ago has certainly been an asset to
senior citizens living in the community and we have been Offering Home
Support Services to give senior citizens a further alternative to
institutional living and we are very happy to offer the following:
Neals on I'Theels: '1e now have a volunteer service delivering meals
on wheels to res~dents in the community and at the present time we are
delivering 15 meals per day, five days per week, making a total of 75
meals each week.
l'1heels to
the Aged for a
Meals: The senior citizen
noon meal Monday to Friday
is brought in to the Home for
and the seniors can enjoy the
355
-2-
social contact gained through congregate dining.
Day Care: Elderly citizens. attend the Home activities ana daily
basisenjoy~ng a hot meal and the craft and recreation program. Day
Care residents may require transportation which can be arranged. At the
present time we have 4 residents who are corning in on a daily basis to
our day care program~
Vacation Care: Senior 9itizensresidingwith their family maybe
admitted to the Home.for a short term admission which enables the family
to take a vacation knowing their family resident is being cared for.
Recuperation. Care: Seniorcitbens. 'fho have. been. hospii:alizedmay
require mor~professional nursing care ,which the Home for Senior citizens
can provi,de. A short term admission should be arranged, prior to
hospitalizatiQn. This ,program has been widely,'usedduring' the 1982 season.
Telephone,Cal1forAssist~nce: We have supplied telephone stickers
to the. sen~or c~t~zens ~n the community and we are available ana 24 hour
basis should the senior require some sortofassistan~e tO'continue
living in the community.
Telephone Assurance': Seniors residing alone in the, community ara
contacted da~ly by thaHome ensuring the senior is in good health.' ~his
programme provides a friendly vi~it to a senior who might not otherwise
be contacted.
CounSellinq and Referral: Seniors may contact the Home with regard
to programmes or services for tite elderly. The Home endeavours to supply
the senior with accurate details and/or referral to the proper agency.
tssistance is offered to seniors in completing pensionapplications,tax
rrants or income taxes.
~~nu planninq:Nutritionfor the elderly is a concern for the Home.
Seniors who would like assistance in maintaining a proper diet should
contact the Home and our dietician will provide necessary information and
guidance.
Winter Resicence: seniorawho are apprehensive about living alone
for the wJ.nter may be accommodated for a short term admission. The cost
;_s determined on an ability to pay basis. This program has been widely
used and is certainly a program that Elgin County can be proud of.
Assisted Bathinq: Seniors who are unable to bathe themselves are
encouraged to contact the Home to arrange a time fora whirlpool bath.
Their own doctor is required to. sign a consent form for the WhirlpoOl.
A nominal fee is charged for each bath. At the present time we have 15
seniors coming in to our Homes to participate in this program.
Exercise: Fitness should be a concern for seniors who are able to
take advantage of water exercises. At Terrace Lodge there is: a swimming
pool staffed by a qualified instructor. Participants are welcome to
attend the swim classes and to obtain the weekly times, by contacting the
office. Regular exercise classes are held each morning at 10:30 and we
356
-3-
encourage new members to join to keep fitness in their daily routine.
Adjuvant classes are held i<<onday to Friday at Elqin Manor. The
adjuvants are trained to work with seniors Who rnay require assistance to
walk and provide therapy for varied disabilities.
Our, Day Care program has expanded quite rapidly and ,the senior
citizens who come to our Drop-In Centre total 200; and opera~~B 2 to 3
days per week. Also included in this program is use of the swimming poOl
which has 25 swimmers each week and we also ,operate the swim program for
the retarded children ,from Springfield school which total 10 ona weeklY
basis.
During this last year we have used ~he services of the ,~~ who has
offered community programs Monday, t'Jednesday,.Thursday"and Saturday for
mothers and tots and I am certainly very excited about this new program
as we are using our swimming pool to the full use for the senior citizens
and community, around us.
Once again, our auxiliaries haVG worked hard during the last year
and I am very happy to advise CountyCOUhcil that the Elgin l1anor
auxiliarY received the Marguerita Smith 1\.1>lard the past year for outstand-
ing programs and services. The Elgin ~mnor auxiliar~ were very excited
to receive this award and the Committee of Managarnent has arranged a
luncheon to be held November 19th to commend them for the \~rk they are
carrying out in our Momes.
I -chank the Committee of,Ilfanagement of Elgin County nomes for
Senior CiL~zens in' Elgin County for the support they have given us in
arranging the programs as listed, and I certainly hope that we can
continue to offer as many services to our senior citizens to assist them
in living in the community rather tl~an be institutionalized.
hll of which is respectfully submitted.
