The Blyth Memorial Hall and roads projects are two big ticket items on North Huron's plate.

Reeve Neil Vincent was sworn in, and says plans for the 3.2 million dollar renovation of Blyth Memorial Hall are being drawn up. Roads projects will depend on supplentary grants from the province.

Vincent says he's also looking forward to working with the new councillors, Trevor Seip and Yolanda Ritsema-Teeninga, who both represent the Wingham ward. "We're looking at roads projects depending on some of the supplementary grants, whether we can get them or not, how fast we can get them," says Vincent.
