Mrs.. A. McCall
The Walton Unit met at the
home of Mrs. Nelson Reid on
Wednesday evening.
Mrs. Herb Traviss opened the
devotions with all joining in
singing the Thanksgiving hymn
"Come ye Thankful People.
Come". The scripture was read
from Hebrew 2: 9-18 followed by
prayer. The meditation was on
the beatitude, "Blessed are the
Merciful for they shall obtain
Mercy.
Mrs. Traviss closed this part
with the reading of two poems,
"It isn't the town it's you" and "I
knew a dear old lady" .
Mrs. Gerald Watson had the
topic on Thanksgiving, the seed
of love, the seed of good health
habits and thanking God for what
we have.
Mrs. Bill Thamer presided for
the business. Mrs. Howard
Hackwell read the minutes of the
last meeting and took the roll call.
Reports were given of the rally
held in. Clinton on Tuesday
evening. The offering was.

A new cover on the county's
Official plan. That was the opinion
of Huron 'County Councillor Bill
Elston when council members
discussed the culmination of
two-years of study into the
ramifications of urban develop-
ment in rural areas (UDIRA).
Simialr opinions were expressed
by other members of council
concerning the report entitled
Countryside Planning.
The $110;000 report was
presented to county council
Friday for "discussion only to
enable the planning board to
make remonnendations", County
Planning Director Gary Davidson
told members.
Prepared by J.F. MacLaren
Consultants Ltd., of London, the
report concentrated on the three
main land uses in the county-
agriculture, urban and recreation.
The study was financed
through 80 per cent provincial
government money and 20 per
cent. Huron County funds. It is the
first time that land use planning
from an agricultural perspective
has been studied in the province.
Huron was chosen as a pilot study
area because it was the first rural
county to adopt an official county
plan.
Goderich Township Reeve
Gerry Ginn, however, didn't feel
there was much new or helpful in
the study. In fact, according to
Reeve Ginn, the study only
confused him more than ever
concerning land use planning for
Huron.
"I thought this study would
look at planning from a rural point
of view" .Ginn told council. "I
don't think this does."
Reeve Ginn had 'plenty of
questions to ask concerning what
was contained in the report. Most
importantly, he was contained in
the report. Most importantly, he
Wanted to know how the planners
proposed to restrict growth in
Villages and hamlets while allow=
ing towns to grow as quickly and
as large as necessry.
Gary Davidson told him that
villages and hamlets would
expand With their abilities to
provide services. He said that
grow th in the' village would come
from the areas arognd them and it
would not be "exeeedingly fast"
I while growth in the towns would
be encouraged.
Reeve Fred Haberer of Zurich
called villages 'an "important
arm" in the county community.
He charged that the MacLaren
study was a "rural report and a
big town report", but had nothing
of value to offer the villages and
hamlets of the county.
The study makes two major
recommendations. One is that
urban development should be
onto poor quality farmland when
it is necessary to expand; the
second is that it provides the five
county towns• with room to grow
in a specific rauis around them
and that within this circle, the
growth should be orderly and
predictable.
Farmers with property withing
the growth area of one of the five
towns would have 10, 20 and 30
year assurances,* the report
suggests with the farmers on the
outer perimeter of the growth
circle having the 30 year assur-
ance and the permission to
remain on their farms for the
remainder of their lives if that
was their wish.
MacDonald, we hope they are
both'improved and home by now.

Mr. and Mrs. William Thamer
and Ruth visited over the holiday
weekend with Mr. and Mrs.
Volker Hertlein and family of
London. Thanksgiving weekend
guests at the home of Mr. and
Mrs. Ken McDonald were: Mr.
and Mrs. Robert Warwick and
baby son of Owen. Sound and Mr.
Neil McDonald of Toronto.
Mr. and Mrs. David Brady and
Katharine of London spent the
holiday weekend at the home of
her father W.J. Leeming and
visited other relatives in the
community. Mr. Jim Fritz is a
patient in Kitchener hospital ,
following a corn harvesters acci-
dent a couple of week ago, having
lost one finger and two broken on
the one hand.
Miss Glenna Houston of Sarnia
spent Thanksgiving weekend at
the home of her parents, Mr. and
Mrs. Rae Houston.
Danny Achilles is a patient in
Clinton Hospital. He is wished
speedy recovery from his surgery
on Thursday, and it' is hoped he
will soon be able to be home.
Old. Surveys
Reeve Warren Zinn of Ashfield
was concerned about the "old
surveys" scattered throughouth
the, county.
"building is going on but it
doesn't seem to be going on
correctly," Reeve Zinn observed.
"How does this plan control
that?"
Planning director Davidson
said the initial step would be to .
determine boundaries and then -
control development.
B.ayfield Reeve Ed Oddleison
argued there was "nothing in the
report about specific areas for
development". He was particul-
arly concerned about recreational
land use along the lakefront. He
learned that for the present at
least, agricultural land was
considered' more important than
recreational land. .
Scenic Easement
One specific area of develop-
ment interested Reeve Ginn. He
wanted to know what "scenic
easement development" was and
he learned that where' scenic
easement development was in
effect, there was a fee paid to the
landowner to permit public access
to a particularly scenic or natural'
beauty snot.
