By LISA BROWN [email protected]

MAHONE BAY — Residents of Mahone Bay will soon be putting their garbage curbside in clear bags. The town has introduced new bylaws governing solid waste procedures and enforcement, including the switch from dark to transparent, colourless bags. Mayor Joe Feeney says it’s a move to improve compliance with sorting rules. The province has established a diversion target of 300 kilograms of solid waste per person per year. “We, in Lunenburg County, have been fairly close to that magic number for awhile but haven’t been able to get there,” Mayor Feeney said. “So one of the ways of trying to drop that number down that’s going to landfill is to get better diversion. “That’s the biggest reason for it,” he added. Most municipalities in the province, some 85 per cent, already use clear bags. Bridgewater, Lunenburg and the Municipality of CTV PHOTO Lunenburg are expected to implement similar bylaws Trevor Jessome was selected as one of the top-50 amateur chefs in the country by the CTV program “Masterchef Canada.” in the coming months.

What a difference a change of scenery can make. Just four games after being traded from the Bridgewater CIBC Wood Gundy Lumberjacks to the Amherst Ramblers, goaltender Billy Clarke was named the Maritime Junior Hockey League’s first star of the week. “Billy has been working hard at getting better and just had two good sessions with our goalie coach, Brad McCharles,” said coach Jim Bottomley. “[Billy] had a great weekend and has a great attitude.” After splitting his first two starts with the Ramblers, on January 11 he made 23 saves in a shutout of his former team. “The following afternoon in Summerside, Clarke was even busier between the pipes, making 44 saves in a 2-1 victory over the Western Capitals,” said a press release from the league. “In both of his appearances this week, Clarke was named the game’s first star.” The Dayspring native was traded to Amherst after starting the season 0-15-2 with the last-place Lumberjacks. The 19 year old had a 4.84 goals against average and an .874 save percentage with Bridgewater in 2013-14, but was 3-1 with a 3.00 goals against and a .917 save percentage through his first four games with Amherst, which is in contention for the Eastlink Division championship.
