Market freshened, ready for next week’s launch By Mike Williscraft NewsNow There have been many casualities due to the impact of COVID-19 but Grimsby Farmers’ Market is determined to not be one of them. The market will virtually open next Thursday, June 11, with consumers being able to place an order on the market’s website and then proceed to the Peach King Centre for pick-up. Online orders must be placed by noon each Monday so they can be prepared for each Thursday. Order at grimsbyfarmersmarket.ca Customers can still physically attend the market and make their selections, however, but it will not be the regular atmosphere of music, visiting and samples. The market will run from 2-7 p.m. “From the response we have received, people are excited to hear the market is opening up again,”
said Marc McKerracher, a member of the market’s steering committee. “The online store is popular, although our pick-up process has needed some rethinking, and we continue to streamline as much as possible, while keeping in mind the rules of social distancing.” The market has long been a staple for downtown Grimsby, traditionally being staged on Main Street. The change to a virtual format to allow for appropriate social distancing measures has meant a complete overhaul for how the market will run. “While it’s true that there are fewer vendors this
year (as a result of our Niagara Health permit process for rules on Covid), we think our customers will find an excellent selection of produce and food products for their needs. We don’t know if we can get back to a “normal” setup on the street this year at all, so there isn’t a clear idea if we can add to the vendor list yet.” “There will not be any of the regular things you look forward to but See MARKET, Page 3

Grimsby levels COVID-19 financial impact Quick action has proven the key to allow the Town of Grimsby to offset more than $1.6 million in lost revenues due to COVID-19 impact, says CAO Harry Schlange. Schlange presented a COVID-19 response update to council Monday. “The team first and foremost focused on the health and safety of our staff and the community, but we also set
parameters on expenditures. We set up a specific general ledger account and advised the (management) team to start to curb all discretionary spending. We anticipated that we would be in it for the long term and we needed to be cost conscious. Once we heard a number of facilities would close March 14, we immediately temporarily laid of 39 part-time staff

available, running concurrently with the market, for those who aren’t comfortable in a social setting yet. So something for everyone! The pandemic has removed the social aspect of our day to day lives and, as we begin to cautiously roll back some restrictions, we are excited to converse with our customers,” he said.
From Page 1 our vendors will be happy to see everyone’s smiling faces,” said McKerracher. Customers are asked to park at the PKC and enter the market at the east end and exit the west end (by the central entrance). “There will still be an online store option
and four students from the library,” said Schlange. As well, several important components such as inter-municipal transit, Main Street East study and two parks department hires were all deferred to Q4 of the budget year.
“This has been a team effort, in many ways residents of Grimsby complying with the COVID restrictions; fire services, full-time and volunteers; GBF; Niagara Public Health, helping us move the farmers’ market; and how the team and mayor,
in the EOC; the entire council came together very quickly to make the right decisions at the right time. We have a long way to go but we are ready to adapt to the challenges that lie ahead,” said Schlange. “The entire team rallied around the situation,
working together with a corporate-wide mindset. We are sharing resources across divisions to help one another.” As a whole, council was very happy with the presentation. “Great report, very comprehensive,” said Coun. Reg Freake.
West Lincoln confirms WLMH rebuild support The Township of West Lincoln has voted to confirm that it will, along with Grimsby and Lincoln, contribute a local portion to the WLMH rebuild project. West Lincoln council passed the confirmation motion during its Monday, May 24 meeting. West Lincoln Mayor Dave Bylsma said the hospital rebuild is an important issue for the residents of West Lincoln. “There is a sense that hospital support is motherhood and apple pie, but we did not lose sight of the fact that it will be a significant commitment for
our residents,” said Township of West Lincoln Mayor David Bylsma. “I’m thankful to the many folks who have propelled this project forward lately, but especially in decades past.” West Lincoln’s price tag will roughly come to $6 million, however Bylsma was quick to point out that this has not been set in stone. “There’s lots of negotiations that have to take place yet,” he said in comments made after the May 25 meeting. Bylsma noted that Coun. Mike Rehner raised the question to
him how the Township will find a way to finance this cost. “This is something we’ll have to figure out in work session this Fall,” which will take place before the 2021 budget meetings, said Byslma. “It’s a big decision, but we had very strong support for it with a unanimous vote.” He added that West Lincoln will be collaborating with the rest of Niagara to lobby the Regional Government for financial support. “After that, all the numbers will fall into place,” said Bylsma.

Which category here best describes your current home-ownership situation? 1) CURRENT VARIABLE-RATE MORTGAGE HOLDERS: The Bank of Canada target overnight rate has been dropping, and because of this, most mortgage lenders have reduced their own Prime lending rate. The Bank of Canada may make further reductions in future, so my advice to you is to just stay the course for now, as you could benefit from the lower Prime rate. 2) CURRENT FIXED-RATE MORTGAGE HOLDERS: Fixed rates moved higher about 7 weeks ago, and shortly after, due to higher bond yields; My advice is to stay the course, and allow time for the bond market to find its level. When it does, fixed rates will most likely come down. Once the current environment is behind us, we may see more rate competition amongst lenders with lower rates. At that time, you may want to look at breaking your fixed-rate mortgage for a lower Variable-rate, or a new Fixed-rate term. 3) RENEWING-MORTGAGE HOLDERS & NEW MORTGAGE SHOPPERS: During this time of financial uncertainty, many borrowers look for the long-term stability of a Fixed-rate mortgage. However, if we anticipate the Prime lending rate to stay at 2.45% or less, then you may want to look at a Variable-rate mortgage; Today, Variable-rate mortgages are cheaper than Fixed-rate mortgages. 4) THE PAYMENT-CHALLENGED BORROWER: If your employment has been impacted by COVID-19 business closures, and you are having difficulty making payments, then let’s look at refinancing your mortgage. I can create a new mortgage plan for you to restructure your debt so as to improve your cash-flow - and get your home paid off faster than your current plan!

Easton: Lincoln is still moving forward By Tristan Marks NewsNow The Town of Lincoln continues to progress and grow, despite 2020 being “no ordinary year,” says Mayor Sandra Easton. “We’re moving things forward regardless of what’s going on,” Easton said May 27 at the Town’s first virtual ‘State of Lincoln’ address. Steady progress was Easton’s theme at the event, sponsored by the Lincoln Chamber of Commerce. The address featured updates to various aspects of the town’s response to and recovery from shut-downs due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Easton started her comments by praising the “community-minded” plan implemented by the Town staff, and the foresight demonstrated by earlier policies that helped contribute to the town’s resiliency. “I believe we have been planning for this [COVID-19] by building a more sustainable town, growing our economy and building a strong team,” said Easton. She acknowledged that some of Lincoln’s citizens were hit harder by the pandemic than others, and said that “people recovery” must be at the core of any economic recovery. According to Easton, that means the town must support social services, promote jobs, and advocate for continued financial aid from higher levels of government. In the short term, the Mayor said the town will be ready for the further roll-back of restrictions, be it for businesses or public spaces. However, in the meantime, Lincoln will be in it “for the long haul”. Easton finished her address by recognizing Lincoln’s 50th anniversary and remarking about how
she hopes this current time will be viewed by history. “I want future generations to look back and see the resolve and resilience that marked a pivotal time in the next chapters that will be written about Lincoln,” she said. “It will be about how we emerge stronger, more united and more ambitious than ever before.” Her statements were followed by updates from councillors JD Pachereva and Paul MacPherson. Coun. Pachereva used his time to showcase the the various forms of outreach that the Town has pursued during the pandemic. He said that Lincoln staff and councillors have continued to advocate for residents and businesses with higher levels of government. He also touted the Town’s various partnerships with academic institutions such as Brock University, Niagara College and the Vineland Research Centre. Pachereva said that community outreach in the form of digital newsletters, social media and the town website helped broacast important information about closures and health meaures during the pandemic. Coun. MacPherson touched on what the town was doing for businesses. He followed up Pachereva’s statement regarding outreach, saying that the staff and council have been in “constant contact” with local industry organizations “since the beginning.” MacPherson noted that the town has started providing businesses with free face shields, and donned one himself to demonstrate how they work. He also gave a shout out to the recently-launched ShopLincoln.ca website.

New COVID-19 electricity rates initiated New COVID-19 electricity rates took effect on Monday, June 1. The new fixed rate of 12.8 cents per kWh was set in place by the provincial gvernment. Households, farms and small businesses which pay time-of-use (TOU) electricity rates will be charged this fixed rate 24 hours a day, seven days a week until Oct. 31, 2020. This rate will be automatically reflected on TOU customers’ electricity bills for all three TOU periods, said Remy Fernandes, president and CEO of Grimsby Power. “Through these difficult and uncertain times Grimsby Power continues to support its customers with flexible payment arrangements, no disconnections for non payment
and no late payment fees,” he added. The same rates are in play for Niagara Peninsula Energy Inc. customers as well. The new rates will be charged automatically, and there is no action required from customers. Previously, NPEI customers were being billed at the offpeak price of 10.1 cents per kilowatt hour. “This change will continue to provide relief for our customers by not charging on-peak prices,” says Brian Wilkie, president and CEO of NPEI. “With everyone con-
tinuing to spend a lot of time at home, this will help provide relief while slowly getting back to normal.” Fernandes said customers can contact his office with any questions, Monday-Friday 8:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m. at 905-945-5437 or email: customeraccounts@ grimsbypower.com NPEI customers can phone at 1-877-2703938, email: info@npei.ca or check online at www.npei.ca, along with registering for NPEI’s online portal, My Account.

Softball Canada cancels August championship, a COVID-19 casualty Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Softball Canada, in consultation with the 2021 Canada Games Host Society and the Provincial/Territorial Softball Organizations, has decided to cancel both the U14 and U16 Boys Canadian Fast Pitch Championships. The tournaments were scheduled to take place from Aug. 5-9 at Southward Park in Grimsby, and at Jordan Lions Park in Lincoln. Based on the recommendations from public health experts, this decision was made in order to ensure the health and safety of all the athletes, coaches, officials, support staff, volunteers and spectators. Moreover, logistical concerns, team selection timelines, venue availability, limited travel between provinces, and adequate training opportunities were also contributing factors. Scott Neiles, president of Softball Canada recognized that hard work put into setting up the 2020 championships by the host municipalities. “We would like to thank all our
2020 Championship Hosts for their diligent work in preparing to organize these Championships,” said Neiles. “We share their disappointment in not being able to provide these premier events to the players, coaches, umpires, family members and fans who were looking forward to the experience.” “While we are disappointed that we won’t be able to host two Canadian Fast Pitch Championships in 2020, we completely support Softball Canada’s decision,” added Doug Hamilton, board chair of the 2021 Canada Games Host Society. “Despite today’s disappointing news, we continue to look forward to hosting both the men’s and women’s softball competitions next summer as part of the Niagara 2021 Canada Summer Games.” Both the men’s (U21) and women’s (U18) softball competitions that will be featured at the Niagara 2021 Canada Summer Games, which will still be held at Southward Park in Grimsby.

HOME IMPROVEMENT
Warm weather entices people to enjoy long hours outside basking in the sun or relaxing on balmy evenings. Even though outdoor dining can be quite enjoyable, certain factors need to be considered to ensure that each experience is as pleasurable as possible. This means focusing on comfort whenever meals are taken out-of-doors. Address insects Insects are equal opportunity invaders. Once they smell sweet or savory food items, they quickly descend for an easy bite. This means extra steps are neces-
sary to dissuade insects from coming by. Invest in citronella candles, which can be placed around the patio to repel flying bugs. Clean up crumbs and spills promptly. Bees and wasps can be lured away with sweet traps placed around the perimeter of the property. Offer shade Too much sun can make outdoor meals less enjoyable. A patio umbrella, pergola or canopy can cut down on glare and make the dining area more comfortable. Check to see that
the shade source can be adjusted to guard against the sun as it moves across the sky. Dress up seating Just because furniture is made for outside doesn’t mean it has to be uncomfortable. Many companies now produce very durable and attractive outdoor furniture. Weather-resistant fabrics mean rain or sunlight will not age items too quickly. Reusable place settings Those who dine frequently outdoors may want to dine in style. Instead of dispos-
able paper or plastic place settings, invest in colorful, durable, reusable plastic dishes, glasses and flatware, which will not break if dropped and can hold up to a dishwasher when it is time to clean up. Create the right ambiance Invest in outdoor lighting, candles and hidden speakers to pipe in music and create ambiance. Install privacy screens and foliage to establish a nice nook for outdoor dining. Outdoor dining areas can be improved with some easy modifications to existing spaces.

It is with great sadness that the family of Karl Heinz Trumper announces his passing in his 91st year at St. Peters Palliative Care, Hamilton, Ontario surrounded by his wife of 63 years Elfriede Trumper and his two daughters Anita Hurst and Ingrid Renaud. He will be sadly missed by his son in law Aaron Hurst and his beloved sunshine Karle Renaud. He will be fondly remembered by friends and neighbours. Karl immigrated from Germany in 1952 and settled in Saskatoon. Years later he and his family moved to Ontario where he became a teaching Master of Mechanical Engineering for 26 years at Fanshawe College in London, Ontario. He belonged to the Probus Club both in London and Grimsby. He adored his family and their travels and times together. His love of his family, animals, nature, music, dancing with his wife and ice cream brought him great joy. He will be sadly missed by his brother in law and sister in law Otto and Ursel Rudolph many nieces, nephews and cousins in Germany and the U.S. We wish to thank the nurses and doctors at both West Lincoln Hospital and St. Peter’s Palliative care, for their care of Karl. We send out a special acknowledgment to Jacqueline Veenendaal at West Lincoln Hospital. She was our earth angel who helped keep us connected to Karl via video chat and went the extra mile when we couldn’t be with him. What a true blessing she was to Karl and our family. Cremation and a private service will take place and a celebration of life will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, donations to West Lincoln Memorial Hospital Foundation or the Alzheimer Society of Canada would be appreciated.

WERNER, Bruno Gerhard
It is with great sadness that we share news of the sudden passing of Bruno Gerhard Werner, on May 27, 2020 in his 93rd years. Predeceased by his beloved wife of 52 years, Adelgunde “Gundel” (2010). Also predeceased by his siblings in Germany. Bruno will be sincerely missed by family and dear friends in Germany, and by his friends and close neighbours in Canada. Bruno married Gundel (Lueck) in 1957. Bruno’s love for Gundel was everlasting, as beautifully inscribed on a plaque affixed to a bench, overlooking Lake Ontario in Grimsby, that reads: “In Memory of Adelgunde (Gundel) Werner. Forever, Bruno.” He worked at Corrections Canada for 25 years as a Procurement Officer. He loved reading, music, working in the garden, recounting travel and wartime stories, going for regular walks and enjoying life through connecting with others. Bruno loved keeping-up on the newsworld news in the media, as well as the neighbourhood “word on the street”. He and Gundel adored their community of friends-like-family from their years in Oakville, at the cottage, and in Grimsby- and everywhere else folks were lucky enough to speak with his family and dear friends. In Canada, Bruno shared smiles every day with neighbours and friends who popped-by to share a meal, a piece of pie, some vegetables from their garden, a story, or just a hug and some time to connect. He loved going to homes for special events like holidays and birthdays. Bruno leaves to cherish in his loving memory: great nieces and nephews in Germany, special friends who he considered family, and a host of other dear relatives and cherished people - all of whom can tell you a wonderful story about dear Bruno. As per his wishes, cremation has taken place. If desired, memorial contributions to McNally House Hospice would be sincerely appreciated. We will honour his life in a gathering at a future date yet to be determined. Arrangements entrusted to STONEHOUSEWHITCOMB FUNERAL HOME, GRIMSBY, 905945-2755. www.smithsfh.com

Traffic congestion
Making a left-hand turn in downtown Grimsby has been tough for the last week with the Forty Creek bridge on Elm Street closed, necessitating a detour onto Main Street. The road was re-opened Monday night, but will be closed again for about five days for additional paving and drainage work. The schedule for that work has not been set yet. Marks - Photo
West Lincoln expands online Twp. of West Lincoln rolled out a major online upgrade this week with a new and shiny website. Some of the new features will help out some of the township’s residents a lot. Among the changes: • navigation for council/committee meeting information; • digital forms to request and submit information • searchability, and; • interactive mapping Having this information readily available could save residents a trip to town hall and/or simply make them better informed. Online is a natural and simple way to circulate information, but it is tricky trap for municipalities in Niagara to fall into given one-third of the homes in region have no internet connection at all. It is a great base to cover, but not a catch-all. M.W.
Team Grimsby nails COVID-19 offset Grimsby council has had precious little in the way of positive news in the first yearand-a-half of its term. At its mid-May meeting the site alteration bylaw was finally approved. That was a huge feather in the cap of council to get that done. Now, for a second meeting in a row, council got perhaps the best news of its term (besides the biodisaster being sold) when CAO Harry Schlange rolled out his much-anticipated COVID-19 response financial update. Again, extremely positive news in that quick action got the municipality ahead of the financial impact wave and, at this point in time, measures taken should offset the $1.6 million-plus in revenue losses sustained. The financial impact stories have been rolling out across the region, country and globe regularly in recent weeks. In Niagara, Welland has seen $4.4 million in revenue losses; St. Catharines, $2.9 million, and; Niagara Falls, $2.8 million. There is not a whole lot of good news anywhere on the COVID-19 front. Now, some municipalities will find ways to mitigate these impacts, others won’t quite get there when it comes to matching dollars and have to rely on a tax increase next year to balance the books. Grimsby, at least for this year - and there is no guarantee for anyone in the future anymore - is in a very strong position having covered the initial impacts via administrative measures. While this is good news for the Town, as in all COVID-related stories, there are ripple effects and they are not great. The impacts on staff were major, when one considers: • Thirty-nine part-time staff were no longer scheduled for work
MIKE WILLISCRAFT • Four students laid off at the library • Fifty-six seasonal positions were put on hold in public works and in parks & rec • Seven part-time employees temporarily laid off at the library, and • Based on the closing of schools, the decision was made to temporarily layoff crossing guards. That is 106 positions, plus the crossing guards (not sure how many there are). That is a lot of people losing revenue to their household incomes and students losing out on summer jobs. There is no positive spin to that. It hurts. Sure the government has created programs to support laid off workers, and that helps, but all things being equal, I am sure all would rather be on the job. And that is not just in Grimsby. Similar measures have been implemented in most communities. So Grimsby has gotten on a bit of a roll lately. The face shield program the Town got on board with the Downtown Improvement Area board has proven a massive hit, then the site alteration bylaw and now a very progressive and positive outlook on COVID financial impacts. All positive and a good way to attempt to turn the page from a long series of missteps.
That said, in Monday’s meeting - which ran smoothly and should have been wrapped in up just over an hour - a huge off-agenda detour, squabbling, points of order and talking over one another still managed to find its way into the council playbook. Coun. Dave Sharpe, under the new business portion of the meeting, was determined to have council endorse sending Premier Doug Ford a letter supporting outdoor sports and athletics be opened up. In the interests of space, I will leave out most of the back and forth, but it is on the Town website if you want to take it in. Sharpe repeatedly mentioned wanting to get his toddlers out of the house and involved in sports and activities, soccer was mentioned repeatedly. Tuesday morning he sent an additional email to me noting he meant all kids need to get out and get moving, which they do. But, nobody is going to pre-empt to pressure the government on what to do. Ford has done a great and difficult job separating politics from public pressure by focusing on and adhering to opinions from his medical experts. The issue Monday, however, as Mayor Jeff Jordan repeatedly stated, was the circumvention of proper procedure in bringing forward a motion. There was no research, no staff report, no notice of motion...and councils simply do not operate that way. Schlange was supposed to be brought in to temper the wayward direction of council. If one of the minority four had done this they would have been pommeled. Regardless, it was voted down with councillors Sharpe, Kevin Ritchie and Randy Vaine supporting it.
West Lincoln launches new website The Township of West Lincoln has launched a brand new website at westlincoln.ca, based on numerous sources of feedback. The new site design is “more accessible, mobile friendly and easier to navigate for users looking for information and services,” according township officials. The redesign was based onfeedback gathered from user comments, a survey and a focus group, along with recommendations from the website developer working alongside township staff. The list of enhancements includes: A new layout designed to be intuitive; • An improved search function; • Upgraded calendar features, includng a community calendar where community events are posted; • An improved way to find council/committee meeting agendas and reports;
• Online forms that provide the ability to request and submit information to the township electronically; • And, an interactive mapping feature that gives public access to the Township’s GIS (Geographic Information System) data. The website also allows users to subscribe to newsletters, community events, council meeting and other publications. West Lincoln Mayor Dave Bylsma said he sees this website being an important hub for information about the township. “We want this to be the place that our residents and business go for their township information,” said Bylsma. “Council and I have many thanks to staff for executing well and on time during this pandemic.” To check out the website and to explore its new features, visit westlincoln.ca.
