The chair of the Huron County Board of Health says talks regarding a merger with the Perth Board are moving ahead.
Tyler Hessel says the Perth Board will be finalizing their terms of reference in the coming week and both committees have asked their medical officers of health to approach the ministry regarding funding for a consultant to work with them going forward.
