The Exeter Times-Advocate, 1977-04-14, Page 28OMB decision deferred After hearing evidence for two full days, the judges in an OMB hearing involving a proposed development in Stanley township have deferred their decision. It could be from two weeks to three months before the decision is announced according to Stanley clerk Mel Graham. The hearing opened last Monday in the Varna township hall and continued Monday af- ternoon, all day Tuesday and Wednesday morning. The hearing is to decide whether or not the official plan of Huron County should be amended to allow the development of a large subdivision at the end of sideroad 10, Stanley -township, along the lakefront. --- -- According to the official plan, a strip of land along the lakeshore is designated for seasonal recreational purposes. The width of this strip isnot set out in definite yardage on the plan, but it does not extend out the 1800 feet from the lakeshore which is the depth to the eastern tip of the proposed subdivision. Stanley township objected to the proposed development as the land it will be situated on is good agricultural land and the council felt it should not lose any more good agricultural land to avelopers. This hearing was originally scheduled to be held last January, but was postponed at the time as the developer had failed to give proper notice of the hearing to all neighbouring land owners.

Pinder had been dumped while coming in, but still manag- ed to make a play although his effort was thwarted by Harrison. Staff photo OFF THE POST — Midget star Paul Pooley (15) was called up to replace the injured Gerald Weido for Saturday's contest against Wellington and he scored once and hit four posts. The puck is shown here squir- ting off behind the net after Pooley had taken passes from Rick Ingram and Brian Taylor in the background, Staff photo Hay whittles deficit Hay township managed to whittle down their 1975 deficit of $13,729 to end 1976 with a deficit of only $3,663. Council had budgeted for a 1976 budget deficit of $431. The 1976 audit of the Hay township books completed by Durst Vodden and Bender of Goderich shows Hay council budgeted for $742,401 in ex- penditures for 1976. Their actual expenditures were slightly higher at $773,655. These expenditures include general government expenditures of $49,858, budgeted at $46,357; protection of persons and property at $18,181, budgeted at $16,979; transportation ser- vices $191,322, budgeted at $178,000; environmental services $7,650, budgeted at $7,800; health services $239; budgeted at $325; recreation and cultural services $4,439, budgeted at $5,000; planning and develop- ment $93,481, budgeted at $85,355; region or county purposes $109,832, budgeted at $108,354; school board purposes $298,628, budgeted at $294,206 and social and family services $25, budgeted at $25. Although the actual 1976 ex- penditures did exceed the budgeted expenditures, the township's actual revenues of $783,721 also exceeded their budgeted revenue of $755,699. Revenue under general municipal purposes was budgeted at $352,964 whereas the actual revenue was $375,352. Revenue under region or county purposes was estimated at $108,380 in the 1976 budget butthe actual revenue in this area was $109,731. Revenue under school board purposes was budgeted at $294,355 whereas the actual revenue was $298,638. This resulted in the actual revenue for 1976 being $783,721, higher than the budgeted revenue of $755,699. Therefore the accumulated deficit of Hay township for the year 1976 is $3,663, higher than the budgeted deficit of $431 but a far cry from the previous year's deficit of $13,729. New rep for Perth R. Gordon Bennett, deputy minister of the Ministry of Agriculture and Food, has an- nounced the retirement of a senior agricultural represen- tative and his replacement. Alan Scott, ag rep in Simcoe North, has been appointed ag rep in Perth County to succeed Newt Ashton, who has served in the ministry for 32 years. Mr. Scott graduated from the Ontario Agricultural College in 1961. He has been summer assistant in the ministry's Dufferin office, an associate ag rep in Lambton and North Simcoe, and for the past 10 years ag rep in North Simcoe. He was awarded a Master of Science degree at the University of Guelph in 1977. His appointment will be effective May 1. A successor for Mr. Scott will be announced shortly. Mr. Ashton has had a long and successful career in the Ministry. He graduated in 1940 from OAC, and after serving as a supervisor at Defence Industries, Pickering, for four years joined the ex- tension service in 1945. He was an assistant ag rep in Grey and Haldimand counties; ag rep in Lennox and Addington for 12 years, and for the past 17 years has been ag rep in Perth County. He retired on March 31. In paying tribute to Mr. Ashton, Mr. Bennett said, "He has been one of our most conscientious agricultural representatives during his entire public service, and his assistance and counsel will be missed greatly by many farm people and his many colleagues." •,' , .... ,t,e,..,. .. enjoyed .''''' ,,*.T.r;--- ._ ., v.-, —„,.,.„ . , In NOT4HE FLAG ,!...--7 Lostyear, area golfer alp-horrn.a1 temperatures on Easter weekend to participate in their favorite sport.
