Central Huron Council Votes To Disband CNR Sloman School Car Advisory Committee

by Bob Montgomery

Central Huron council has agreed to disband the CNR Sloman School Car Advisory Committee.

Mayor Jim Ginn says Sloman family members had been involved with a committee that looked after the maintenance and the promotion of the School Car. But, they're at an age now that prevents them from participating, and they stopped meeting a couple of years before COVID arrived. Since then it was left to the Curator of the Car and the municipality's Facilities Manager to decide what had to be done. So, council decided at their last meeting that there was really no longer any need for a full committee if those two people were making the decisions.

Ginn says any maintenance on the Car or the land around it has always been done by municipal staff and the committee actually hasn't met for several years so the decision merely acknowledges the reality of the current administration of the CNR Sloman Car.
