With a revision of Huron Coun-
ty's official plan underway in the
coming months farmers must stay
on their toes to make sure their
interests are protected, Ken Kelly,
second vice-president of the
Ontario Federation of Agriculture
told the Huron Federation's region-
al directors meeting Thursday in
Londesboro.
Kelly, a Paisley-area farmer, told
the 20 people present that the new
Progressive Conservative provin-
cial government has promised to
change Bill 163 but until the bill is
amended, the current rules apply.
Those rules require Huron to revise
its plan and those revisions will be
guided by Bill 163's rules. "Plans
prepared under Bill 163 could be
around for years," he said.
"OFA is advising counties to
slow it (the plan revision process)
down as much as possible," Kelly
said. "I encourage you to read, with
an open mind but a suspicious
mind, your local plan." Remember,
that years from now different peo-
ple may be interpreting the rules
than those who wrote them and
things that everybody takes for
granted as meaning one thing now,
may mean something different, he
said. "Irrespective of the good
intentions of the people sitting

not be interpreted the same in the
future. We should be involved in

Kelly pointed to the federal Fish-

sounding rules that can be
