CIVIC CORNER: Leaf collection bids invited

The Petrolia Topic
The curbside collection and disposal of bagged leaves is being tendered by the Town of Petrolia.
Petrolia-based Lambton County Developmental Services has had the contract the past five years and town staff has recommended a four-year contract be tendered. The contract will include collection of both bagged leaves and pumpkins. Material collected will be disposed of at the town compost site.
A tender package is available at the town administration office at Victoria Hall and tenders will be accepted until Tuesday, June 28 at 2 p.m.
TEAM GRATEFUL
The LCCVI baseball team has thanked the town for allowing it to use the baseball diamond at Greenwood Park for games and practices.
"It is a real treat to have such a great facility within walking distance of the school," said coach Paul Sokol in a letter received by council on June 13.
An unusually wet spring forced postponement of several games and practices, said Sokol, but added town staff "...went above and beyond in getting the diamond ready for our games. Without the co-operation and hard work of Dan Vasey and his staff, I doubt that we would have been able to play any ball games in Petrolia this season. Having a home field to play on undoubtedly contributed to the LCCVI baseball team winning the LSSAA championship this season."
Mayor John McCharles said staff did a great job, despite the wet and muddy weather.
RESCUE TRUCK
A request for proposal is being sent to 15 suppliers for the replacement of a rescue vehicle for the Petrolia and North Enniskillen Fire Department.
Delivery of the vehicle is expected to take up to 14 months after a proposal is accepted.
The Petrolia Firefighters Association is contributing about $60,000 to the purchase and a reserve established by the town and Enniskillen Township will pay the balance. The town and township normally cost-share equipment purchases on a 60/40 per cent basis, respectively.
Coun. Helen Havlik noted nearly half of the suppliers were in the U.S. and said she's a proponent for buying Canadian.
But Coun. Joel Field, a town representative on the Petrolia and North Enniskillen Fire Department management committee, said "...if a Canadian company has the best vehicle and price, then OK." He added it's a good thing to get a wide range of bids.
McCharles said many firetrucks used by Canadian fire departments come from the U.S.
