While several coun-cil members have been vocal about the need to promote economic development in the mu-nicipality of Kincar-dine, it seems that not everyone is on the same page when it comes to servicing vacant land.On Dec. 17, council held its first meeting to discuss the 2019 mu-nicipal budget. Trea-surer Roxana Baumann introduced this year’s operating budget, which includes an increase in expenses of $796,000 or 3.66 per cent over ex-
penses incurred in 2018. Half of that ($359,000) is attributed to an in-crease in staff wages and benefits. Other no-table expenditure in-creases include an ad-ditional $71,000 in po-licing costs, an extra $34,000 in propane costs (estimated), strategic plans totalling $75,000, $34,000 for training and conferences for the new council, an increase of $90,000 for fleet mainte-nance (including $50,000 for a fleet replacement reserve fund), an antici-pated $45,000 increase for airport management and a $20,000 grant for
the Tiverton Reunion.For the last few years, the municipality has been setting aside mon-ey in a lifecycle reserve fund for the future re-placement of municipal assets including roads, bridges and facilities. This year, the treasury department is recom-mending that $2.88 mil-lion be added to the re-serve, an increase of $420,000 over last year’s contribution.
In her report, Bau-mann indicated that an overall tax rate increase of 3.2 per cent would be needed to maintain current service levels in
the municipality. Based on the average assessed residential property value of $270,000, the av-erage household could expect an increase of $56 on their 2019 tax bill. That figure is based on no change to the edu-cation or county tax levies. The County of Bruce budget is not ex-pected to be finalized until March.Baumann also pro-vided council with an overview of the draft capital budget, which includes 49 high pri-ority projects totalling $12.7 million. Of that, $6.7 million would be
covered by dipping into reserve funds, $3.8 mil-lion would be funded through external debt and repaid through fu-ture development charg-es, $1.28 million would come from contribu-tions such as the OPG hosting payment and Armow Wind annual payment and another $933,000 would be fund-ed through government grants.There are nine capi-tal projects and ex-penses that have been singled out as top pri-orities for this year by municipal staff and by the previous council.
Council debates borrowing funds to service 9/21 business parkThe most costly of these is continued work to extend municipal ser-vices to the business park at Highways 9 and 21, totalling $4.2 million this year. Also in the budget are upgrades to the Kincardine, Tiver-ton and Bruce Energy Centre water towers, which total $1.3 million. Rural paving projects would cost $1.275 mil-lion. The second phase of cell expansion at the Kincardine Waste Man-agement Centre would cost $965,000.S t o r m w a t e r i m -

NOW PLAYINGMIDNIGHT HOURThe Magic of MotownJULY 30 - AUG 11-877-396-5722
By Pauline KerrThe official launch of the Nuclear
Innovation Institute began on a high
note, with a welcoming speech by
Mike Rencheck, president and CEO
of Bruce Power, to the 120 people in
attendance. “Today is the beginning of some-
thing we started some time ago,” said
Rencheck. He spoke about the need to
work with universities, colleges and
the community to ensure young peo-
ple have opportunities in technology.
He stressed that the NII isn’t about
meeting today’s needs – it’s focusing
on the needs of the nuclear industry
through to 2064.Huron-Bruce MP Ben Lobb re-
marked on the “tremendous opportu-
nity” that comes from having a “world
class facility in our backyard.”
MPP Lisa Thompson’s office was
represented at the event, and a scroll
was presented to the NII.Mitch Twolan, representing Bruce
County, spoke of “the opportunity to
work together and make some excit-
ing things happen.”The launch event included the
announcement that Kinectrics has
become the first supplier to officially
indicate its intent to join NII’s Found-
ing Members Club, and become a part
of Canada’s leading-edge nuclear ap-
plied research facility and centre of
excellence for talent development and
business innovation.A press release stated the launch
event provided ample opportunity to
celebrate a series of achievements
over the past year including secur-
ing a new location, partnering with
the Town of Saugeen Shores to lead
the Municipal Innovation Council,
launching the Trades and Skilled
Workforce Secretariat with Bruce
County, launching the Local Educa-
tion Fund – which is expected to begin
confirming funding commitments
by the end of the summer, and hir-
ing an executive director to lead in
operations.“After such a successful year in
getting things up and running, we
are ready to turn our attention to
securing members and demonstrate
the benefits we will bring to our
members, our stakeholders, and our
communities across Bruce, Grey, and
Huron counties and beyond,” said
Frank Saunders, president of NII.
Nuclear Innovation Institute’s official launch
Epcor Natural Gas Limited Part-
nership is constructing a natural gas
distribution system that will serve
the communities of Chesley, Paisley,
Inverhuron, Tiverton, Kincardine,
Lurgan Beach, Point Clark, Ripley,
Lucknow and the Bruce Energy Cen-
tre.The Ontario Energy Board ap-
proved Epcor’s Leave to Construct
application earlier this month.
The distribution system will con-
sist of two components: a larger
diameter mainline that will be the
backbone of the system and transport
gas to each of the communities, and
smaller diameter medium density
polyethylene (MDPE) distribution
piping that will be constructed within
each of the communities to directly
serve homes and businesses.This summer, construction will in-
clude 60 kilometres of eight-inch steel
pipeline from Dornoch to the Bruce
Energy Centre. Construction will be
along municipal road right-of-ways.
The company expects to employ 150
workers at peak summer construction
(around September). Work will be
completed in stages along the route.
Key steps include establishing tem-
porary workspaces along the route,
bringing material (including pipe)
and equipment on site to prepare for
construction, and tree and vegeta-
tion clearing as required along the
pipeline route within municipal road
right-of-ways.Epcor will also be establishing traf-
fic control measures along municipal
roads in the pipeline route.Actual installation of the pipeline
will require trenching and welding,
testing the pipeline prior to putting it
in service and site restoration.
Construction will occur between
spring and fall. Energization of the
first phase of the natural gas system
is anticipated to occur in December
of this year. Hours of work will be
Monday to Saturday from 7 a.m. to 5:30
p.m.; however, occasional evening or
Sunday work may be required.
Construction will occur along
road allowances and cross the

The founding board of directors
was introduced to the crowd: Mike
Rencheck (Bruce Power) as chair,
Mitch Twolan (Bruce County warden)
as vice-chair, James Scongack (Bruce
Power member), Frank Saunders
(NII member), Jim Phillips as Good
Governance member (sponsored by
Bruce Power), Jessica Linthorne
(Saugeen Shores ex-officio member)
and its newest member – David Harris
(Kinectrics).“We have achieved a milestone for
the Nuclear Innovation Institute with
the establishment of a strong Found-
ing Board and the announcement
of Kinectrics joining our Founding
Members Club, which will ensure
that NII carries out its mandate and
marks the beginning of its venture to
advance technology applications into
our industry, construction, and rural
Ontario,” said Rencheck. “We’re look-
ing forward to adding more Canadian
and international partners on the
board in the very near future, and em-
barking upon technical projects and
educational programs that we know
will have a ground-breaking impact

For This Week
ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20You can have all the inspiration in the world, Aries, but without solid financial backing, your enterprise will not find its wings. Spend your energy finding investors.
TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21You are torn between two choices, Taurus. Family mat-ters are on one side and work responsibilities are on the other. It may take a few days to work out a decision.
GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21It's difficult to contain all of your energy, Gemini, so instead you can choose to share some with others. Try tackling some other people's projects until your energy wanes.
CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22Some people may view you as being selfish this week, Cancer, but you view your actions as putting yourself first for a change. Either way, it's a decid-edly "you-centered" few days.
LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23While some people are revved up with energy, Leo, you will seem to be stuck in neutral this week. Don't fret too much about it unless you have deadlines you need to meet.
VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22Virgo, these next few days you will want to do activities that put yourself first. Whether it's a date or simply alone time, enjoy it and stop neglecting your needs.
LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23Vacations tend to bring the relaxed side out in a person, and it can be hard assimilating back into your regular routine. You, however, have no problem getting back into a groove.
SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22Turning a hobby into some-thing that makes money is an admirable goal, but it will take a little work, Scorpio. Don't give up too easily as it could take a few months to solidify.
SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21Sagittarius, you may be adept at finding an easy way around a difficult thing, but sometimes taking the harder road offers good life lessons along the way.
CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20When money issues arise, the only way to remedy them is to stop spending. This could involve taking a hard look at your lifestyle and what you may not be able to afford.
AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18Everyone expects you to dole out the advice, Aquarius, but this week you will be looking for your own. It could be because you have been tackling so many projects lately.
PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20There are few things that escape your attention, Pisces. However, this week you will be blindsided by certain news.

ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20Aries, the week ahead is a busy one. You may have a speech to deliver or a private performance to put on and that will focus all eyes on you. Rest up while you can.TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21Taurus, don’t schedule any extra ac-tivities this week because your sched-ule is full. Family life also will demand a great deal from you. Make a list of things to do and get started. GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21Gemini, slow down and invite a friend over for a cup of coffee or a drink after work. You have to get back to some social occasions, or you can run yourself ragged.CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22Cancer, this week you may feel the need to exert some physical energy. If you have a gym membership, spend several hours working up a sweat. LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23Leo, stop focusing on things that are beyond your control right now and zero in on the ones that you can tend to. You will quickly see how much control you really have.VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22Virgo, you are in the process of wid-ening your field of possibilities. Right now traveling far distances could be on your mind. Make it happen.LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23Resist the temptation to push other people’s buttons, Libra. You catch more flies with honey, so take a step back and give others a chance to share their opinions. SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22There are some moments when you will feel strongly about big changes
on the horizon, Scorpio. This is a week when you will have a clear view of your future goals. SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21Sagittarius, after a few days of idle coasting, you may get a boost of en-ergy to tackle new things. Others may be amazed at the change.CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20Capricorn, this week you may be in-fluenced by someone with a strong personality. Unless you stand behind what this person is offering, do not be swayed by the hard sell. AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18You have a tendency to go about your routines with less enthusiasm than in the past, Aquarius. You just may need some new scenery to briefly get you inspired.PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20This week may be fairly eventful, Pisces. You may finally address an issue that has been affecting your domestic life.FAMOUS BIRTHDAYSOCTOBER 23Ryan Reynolds, Actor (43)OCTOBER 24Drake, Rapper (33)OCTOBER 25Mia Wasikowska, Actress (30)OCTOBER 26CM Punk, Wrestler (41)OCTOBER 27Lonzo Ball, Athlete (22)OCTOBER 28Bill Gates, Entrepreneur (64)OCTOBER 29Tove Lo, Singer (32)

Gone are the days we used to share,But in our hearts you are always there.Never more than a thought away,Loved and remembered every day.
Love, Brian, Carol, Barb and families
Thank you, Syl for40 years of marriageTwo sturdy oaks I mean, Which side by side,Withstand the winter’s stormAnd spite of wind and tide,Grow up the meadow’s pride,For both are strong.
Above they barely touch, But undermined, Down to their deepest source.Admiring you shall findTheir roots are intertwinedInsep’rably.- Thoreau

Kincardine
By Tammy Schneider
Wes Larson has lived many places and many lives in his 66 years. Originally from Tren-ton, Ontario, he moved to the Toronto and Mis-sissauga area in his late teens and is a relative newcomer to the Kin-cardine area.
Larson enjoyed a very successful career on the cutting age of the computer and technol-ogy boom. His career in marketing and sales spanned 20 years, as he sold technology servic-es, computer software and eventually created his own consulting ser-vice. His business saw him travelling around the world, especially across Canada and the United States.
Sometime in 2003, Larson realized that year after year, visit after visit, he was see-ing the same faces of men and women liv-ing on the street. The faces of the homeless haunted him, because he couldn’t understand why this was happen-ing. This realization soon became the cata-lyst for him walking away from his success-ful, privileged career and life, and becoming one of the street people he wanted to help.
Larson was already volunteering in the Spadina and College Avenue area in Toron-to, when he decided to move to the streets. He is honest when he says he didn’t really know what he was getting into or how long he would be gone. He was searching for understanding and a
chance to ask homeless people “what is your story”, and admits he was pretty naïve.
His time on the street ended up taking him away from family and friends, who Lar-son says “thought he was crazy”, for eight months. During that time, he made friends and began to under-stand the relative “safe-ty” of the streets for many of the homeless. He was having supper at the Scott Mission in Toronto when a casual conversation connected him with a young pas-tor, who asked Larson to speak at his church. The pastor thought Larson was doing the work that churches needed to be doing, and wanted his congregation to hear Larson’s story. It was also at this mission that Larson met fellow vol-unteer and future wife, Maureen McQueen.
Larson and McQueen continued to work to-gether to aid the home-less, but had a bigger vi-sion of owning a home with wide-open spaces, where a person in need could escape the streets, break free from their ad-dictions and overcome the problems behind it.
In 2008, the couple bought a six-and-a-half acre farm north of Ti-verton. A large farm-house on the property was just the right size to accommodate Larson and his family, as well as two to three people each year that would live with them while getting clean. Larson describes the house as “a place to heal and move on with your life.”
Over the seven years he owned the farm, he esti-mates 22 people stayed with his family.
When the farm sold in 2015, Larson knew he didn’t want to return to the big city. He spent the next couple of years on a self-described hiatus, working part time, tak-ing courses and contem-plating his future.
By 2017, Larson knew that Kincardine needed a centrally-lo-cated, drop-in centre for adults. His long-time friend, Chris Higgin-son, who at that time was sales manager at a local auto dealership but was soon to become a pastor a Bluewater BIC Church in the Da-vidson Centre, encour-aged him to put these ideas on paper and start planning. Higginson had a passion to put a church in the downtown area and wanted Larson on board as a partner when this happened.
On June 4, 2018, Drop-in at the Bridge opened its doors at 746 Queen Street, Kincar-dine. The centre is open to adults every Monday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., and welcomes each visi-tor with a free lunch, fellowship and the op-portunity to connect with other guests. Be-sides food, there are assorted puzzles and games available so that people can interact, have fun and escape the isolation and lone-liness that they may be feeling. The downtown location means that the centre is accessible to almost everyone.
The centre started a second program in
September of 2018. Each Wednesday, Larson and his team of volunteers welcome teens to stop in for lunch and some down time, before head-ing back to class. It’s not unusual to see 40 to 50 teens stop by each week.
The next few years will be critical ones for the centre.
“Realistically, over the next five years, my vision is for the drop-in centre,” said Larson. “We will probably take over the location (that the centre now shares with the church). Our tagline is building com-munity and celebrat-ing life. We want to be able to add different opportunities for people to grow. Those might include teaching life skills, speakers, music and art therapy.”
Larson insists that the centre’s visitors need an easy-to-access
spot that provides hope and friendship in a safe environment. T hey need to develop their own sense of happiness and success, even if it doesn’t fit the mould of society’s definition.
“Whatever success is to you, and how you de-fine it, is what success is,” said Larson.
The centre just host-ed its first-ever large scale fundraising event at the Best Western Sure Stay Hotel this past weekend. The fundraiser included a
dinner, silent auction, live music and dancing and was attended by ap-proximately 100 guests. Money raised is being used to pay for the cost of the centre getting charitable status, which costs roughly $5,000.
Groups or individu-als wishing to learn more about The Bridge, or donate, should con-tact Larson at [email protected], or through the Drop In at the Bridge Facebook page.
