W. Wawanosh looks at secondary plan — again
Cindy Fisher of the Huron Coun
ty Planning Department was pre
sent at the June 2 meeting of West
Wawanosh council to discuss pro
posed changes to the township's
secondary plans as specified by the
province.
According to Ms Fisher the pre
vious council had sent the sec
ondary plan back to the Ministry of
Municipal Affairs twice before.
This time, she said, the province
was asking for four changes, two of
which had never been raised
before, she said.
Ms Fisher expressed annoyance
over the delay telling councillors
she had told the ministry that she
would not bring this plan back to
council after this time.
The two new modifications
requested were for a temporary use
by-law and an interim control by
law.
The temporary use by-law is for
someone who wants to do some
thing on a short-term, for example,
placing a mobile home on property
while building. This can be
approved for three years, with stip
ulations. Ms Fisher recommended
councillors leave out a condition
that would prevent construction of
a permanent building, however, as
‘.he use of the building may change
after the three year period.
The interim control is used when
problems occur with an area of
large development. Council has the
authority to delay the project for
one year to study the problem and
see if it can be remedied.
Council concurred with the mod
ifications to the plan as requested
by the Ministry of Municipal
Affairs and addressed by the Plan
ning Department.
Regarding the Official Plan
amendment for the township, coun
cil is requesting the county's sup
port. The Ministry of Natural
Resources will be asked to re
define the limit of extraction to
exclude the wooded swamp and
upland forest area.
Clerk Joan Armstrong was
directed by council to contact the
township solicitor Ross Davies
regarding his progress on the agree
ments for the construction of
Proudfoot Ave. in Dungannon.
The road accounts totalling
$38,945.10 were approved for pay
ment.
Maitland Engineering Services of
Wingham will be asked to under
take, if possible, the preparation of
a plan to modify the Forster
drainage works by-law by altering
a portion of the closed drain to an
open drain.
A motion carried supporting the
efforts of the North Huron Eco
nomic Development Committee in
presenting the attributes of the area
for the site of a medium security
penitentiary.
Council supported the resolution
of Muskoka Lakes township
regarding the creation of additional
school boards in Ontario.
The general accounts totalling
$148,330.07 were authorized for
payment.
