JUNE. 9; 1916
On shopping centres
General amendments to
commercial zoning orders
affecting 60 municipalities have
been made by Housing Minister
John R. Rhodes and filed with the
Registrar of Regulations. Six
Huron townships, Morris, E.
Wawanosh, Stephen, Usborne,
Flay and Turnberry and two' in
Perth, Wallace and Elma,, are
affected.
The original commercial zoning
orders were designed to prohibit
haphazard development of
shopping centres throughout the
province. It has been found,
however, that development of
small-scale commercial uses to
serve local needs would be
beneficial without undergoing the
zoning order amendment process.
The general amendments will
alter the original requirements of
the orders enabling construction
or use of commercial building
with a floor area of less than 5,000
square feet in some
municipalities and up to 15,000
square feet in others. Additional
changes in siting requirements
have also been included.
Mr. RhodeS pointed out that
the commercial orders are interim
measures designed to' remain in
effect only until the affected
municipalities enact their own
zoning by-laws. As soon as the
Ontario Municipal Board
approves these zoning by-laws,
the orders will be rescinded.
"I urge the municipalities to
prepare and adopt suitable land
use controls immediately," Mr.

It was indifference on the part
of existing city insurance
companies to the needs of pioneer
area farmers that led to the
establishment Of the McKillop

of the Ontario Mutpal' Insurance
Assocation when they met in
Seaforth Tuesday.
The meeting here was one of
the features directors of McKillop
Mutual had planned to mark the
100th anniversary of the
company.
Commending the pioneee
founders for their initiative Mr.
McLean suggested that had the
problem arisen today the efforts
to solve it probably would -have
consisted only of an appeal to
government. It is this attitude
where citizens look to government
to assist with every problem that
in turn contributes to big
government with its resulting
high costs about which there is so
much complaint todayi
Mr. McLean was introduced by
Donald McKercher and
appreciation was expressed by
Laverne Godkin.
The growth of McKillop Mutual
reflected the dedication and
ability of the directors and
officers who had served during
the past century, he said. It also
reflected an ability on the part of
management to react to changed
conditions and requirements.
