THE CITIZEN, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 19,1992. PAGE 7. Fraser application rejected Reeve Douglas Fraser declared a pecuniary interest at Morris coun­ cil's regular meeting on August 4 during the Committee of Adjust­ ment since it was his property in question. The Committee of Adjustment meeting was called to hear the application of Douglas and Marjory Fraser to reduce the west and east side yards of Lot 30, Cone. 9, for the construction of a residence with the dimensions that do not conform to the provisions of By-law 24- 1990. Deputy-Reeve Clem McLellan asked for the written comments which were received from the County Health Unit and the County Planning Dept. No objections were given by either party. Deputy-Reeve McLellan pro­ ceeded to ask for comments from the floor. Gary Davidson from the Plan­ ning Dept, advised of the procedure for the committee to follow. Reeve Fraser then stood and advised the committee of his understanding of the events that led to this applica­ tion. He claims that he had applied to the County Health Unit for septic approval and had to install a new system. The contractor applied for the building permit and went to see Leo Sanders, the chief building official, and discussed the matter with him. The permit was then issued. Reeve Fraser felt that Leo Sanders had time to measure the lot before the permit was issued. Council asked Reeve Fraser why the new septic system was not shown on the site plan included in the minor variance application. Mr. Davidson reminded council that the issue at the meeting was concerning the structure only. Reeve Fraser informed council that the old septic system is not being used, as the new system is at the back of the lot. Deputy-Reeve McLellan asked if there were any further questions from the floor, or comments. None were given. Council then decided io move into a committee of the whole with Mr. Davidson in attendance. All ratepayers and applicants, and the press were obligated to leave the meeting. Mother Was Right! Double Up On Your Fibre If you’re like most Canadians, you’re not getting enough fibre each day. It’s estimated that most people need twice as much as they’re getting now. That amounts to about 25 to 30 grams of fibre each day. It sounds like a lot of fibre, but it’s not hard to get if you choose the right foods. 0?
