When a family loses their
business through fire it is a
tragedy, When they lose their
home it is,if anything tworse. But
when they lose both as
happened to the Fink family on
Monday evening, it is doubly
bad.
The Finks report that people
of Clinton have been very good
to them with offers of help and

will continue until the family is
back on its feet,

A major planning
amendment, which brings all
land divisions under public
scrutiny for the first time, will
strengthen the prospect of
orderly community development
in Ontario.
The measure — an
amendment to the Ontario
Planning Act — became effective
June 27. It is designed to
support and reinforce existing
Government policy in:
— The proper location of new
roads and the maintenance of
the efficiency of existing
arteries.
— The prevention of
pollution.
— The assurance that all new
developments have adequate and
safe water supplies.
- The prevention of
haphazard and uncontrolled
growth and the resultant high
costs in , providing public
services.
— Ensuring that
municipalities can provide vital
basic services such as sewer and
sanitation works, and
educational facilities.
— Providing for consistency
of private development
proposals with public policy
regarding the conservation of
agricultural lands, recreational
areas and natural resources.
Municipal Affairs Minister
Darcy McKeough said that these
are among the factors that will
be analyzed in the consideration
of proposed land divisions.
"We want to make sure that
future land developments are
consistent with the public
interest , and the rights of
individuals immediately affected
in the community," the Minister
said.
Mr. McKeough added that
"subdivision control is one of
the basic tools, along with
zoning and building bylaws,
urban' renewal policies and
public works programs, used in
the implementation of proper
planning policies in Ontario."
He said the amendment was
needed because of an
unprecedented rate of land
development in rural areas, and
in other areas not previously
covered by planning policy.
To gain better public
understanding of The Planning
Amendment Act, 1970, the
Department of Municipal Affairs
is making detailed information
available to all Ontario
municipalities, planning boards,
committees of adjustment and
other interested parties.
Meetings between provincial and
municipal officials are also being
arranged.
The main provisions of the
amendment include:
1. The extension of
subdivision control over all lands
in Ontario.
2. The extension of part-lot
control over all land in the,
province. This means that no lot
shown on a registered plan can
be divided without approval,
however, authority is granted to
municipalities to pass bylaws
exempting certain subdivision
plans from part-lot control with
the, approval of the Minister of
Municipal Affairs.
3. The establishment of Land
Division Committees by
counties, and by metropolitan,
regional and district
municipalities to . deal with
applications for the division of
certain lands in municipalities
with no Committees of
Adjustment capable of granting
consent. Municipalities with
Committees of Adjustment may
transfer their consent-granting
authority to such Land Division
Committees.
4. The establishment by the
Minister of regulations governing
the operation and procedures of
all Committees of Adjustment
and Land Division Committees.
5. In future, new Committees
of Adjustment will not be
established in municipalities
without an official plan. All
Committees of Adjustment in
municipalities not having an
official plan by December 31,
1973, will lose their authority to
grant consent,
The new legislation will place
an increased load of applications
on existing Committees of
Adjustment and will also
increase the burden for
municipal councils in passing
bylaws. Mr. McKeough
indicated, however, that he had
"every expectation the
municipalities will work with the
provinee in taking what steps are
necessary to deal expeditiously
with any problems created by
the passage of the amendment."
He said that he realized there
would be some difficulties and
inconvenience during the next
couple of months for land
transactions, particularly those
that were started but not
finalized before the amended
Act came into effect.
"This, unfortunately, could
not be prevented. We will do all
we can to alleviate this situation
and resolve these problems .as
soon as possible," he said. The
Minister added that the
long-term benefits of this
amendment far outweigh the
short-term problems.
The Minister continued: "In
essence, what we want to do is
to improve standards of land
division generally. This will be
achieved not only through
legislative changes, but also
through the streamlining of
procedure. We intend to simplify
procedures and rules of
operation in order to save
valuable time and money and 'do
away with unnecessary red
tape."
Mr. McKeough said the
amendment does not inhibit or
discourage land division. He said
"it brings it under public
scrutiny, thus assuring that the
transaction will serve the best
interests of the landowner, the
purchaser and the general public
alike."
The amendment is consistent
with recommendations
contained in a recent task force
report to the Government's
Advisory Committee on
Pollution Control. Dealing with
the management of recreational
waters in cottage areas, the
report found that uncontrolled
land separations have greatly
contributed to water pollution
in many parts of the province.
PROTECT YOUR EYES
For complete eye protection
while on vacation, wear
sunglasses with shatter resistant
lenses and safety frames, advises
CNII1. Sunbathers should never
look directly at the sun even
while wearing sunglasses — the
tinted lenses provide relief from
the glare but not protection
from the dangerous infrared
rays that can penetrate the dark
glass and damage the retina of
the eye.
