Busy weekend for firefighters Property owner served notice by North Huron council By Margaret Stapleton Wingham Advance-Times North Huron council has given a Wingham property owner two weeks to come up with an agreement as ordered by the Ontario Municipal Board close to two years ago or the township will commence legal action. Wayne Colclough, whose Centre Street property was the subject of an OMB hearing three years ago and a continuation hearing in 1999, was issued a written notice after last Tuesday's first September meeting of council. Brian Treble of the Huron County Planning and Development Department repotted to council last week that he had been in touch with the OMB over the file. One agree- ment attached to the decision has not been signed. The OMB may agree to come in and assist to enforce the decision, said Treble, adding that the chairman who heard the case has retired and he didn't know if he would come back to hear it again or a new chair- man would be appointed. Treble estimated it could be three or four months or longer before the OMB might return. The outstanding issue concerns drainage. A plan was submitted ear- lier, which Colclough deemed as too costly, _said Treble. Subsequent attempts to come up with another option to satisfy Colclough and rep- resentatives of the neighboring St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church have been unsuccessful. A site meeting was held last month, but a second meeting was cancelled by Colclough, council heard. Clerk Administrator John Stewart said the OMB might be willing to amend its decision if the parties could reach an agreement, but he admitted he was not sure it would work. Reeve Doug Layton said he won- dered if it might be worthwhile to bring the OMB back to town, but others were not so sure if ?Fiat was the right route. Treble said he had been talking to the county solicitor who advised that council should commence court pro- ceedings. "The bottom line is, he (Colclough) thinks he's getting away with this. He is bound by the court decision. Court is the only avenue," said Treble. Councillor Archie MacGowan said Colclough is in contravention of the original bylaw as he has more units than are allowed at his Centre Street property. "Wayne wants to have his cake and eat it too. He doesn't want to spend the money, but he wants the extra units," said Treble. Finally, council decided to give the parties 14 days to come to an agreement or court action would be commenced. s Severance Proposal Frank and Isabel Burke attended the meeting to discuss a proposal to sever a property they purchased at the corner of Boland and Catherine streets. Frank Burke told council he had purchased the property in the spring. He is now proposing to sever it to create two lots of 66 x 68 feet each and would construct a new home on the bare lot. Stewart reported that under the proposal, two undersized lots would be created. Because of the reduced setbacks, the couple would also have to apply for a rezoning. Although the county deals with land severances, Stewart explained, the Burkes were attending the council meeting to get members' feeling about the propos- al. - Councillor Jeff Howson said he did not foresee a problem with the Burkes proceeding to the next step, which is, applying for a severance. However, later in the meeting Treble said he believed the couple faces "an uphill battle" over the pro- posal. The lot sizes are deficient, said Treble and after a review of lots in the area, he foUnd only three the size the Burkes are proposing, even though two are across the street from their property. Because of the size of the lotS, the Burkes would be restricted as to the size of a house they could build and would have no backyard, according to Treble. However, if they still wish to pro- ceed, Treble suggested that the Burkes talk to their neighbors to see if there are any objections prior to applying for a severance. If the local neighborhood doesn't have a prob- lem with the proposal, said Treble, the county might allow it, but it almost certain4 would not be allowed if there were opposition. "The corner lot is grown up in weeds," said Layton. "It would be better to have a small house there and get some taxes." Howson suggested that the Burkes be contacted and given their options for the next step. Tax Billing Stewart reported that the finance and treasury department was work- ing on preparing final tax notices for ratepayers. "Getting the information entered (on the software) is an onerous task," said Stewart, who predicted there will be "quite a package" to go out to households as required by the province, which certainly will mean increased postage for the municipal- ity. Rezoning Treble reported on a rezoning pro- posal in the East Wawanosh ward of the municipality. Property owner Don McKay was proposing to rezone his property along County Road 86 west of Wingham to A2-Special from A2 to permit the construction of a resi- dence on the property. Treble said at issue is whether or not just a small portion should be rezoned, where the house would be built, or the whole property. The planner suggested that the munici- pality should be looking at the future development of those lands along County Road 86. However, Treble said he did not know what future plans McKay has for the property. although any subdivision develop- ment probably would require full services. Municipal staff are to go over the rezoning proposal with McKay and report,back. Road Watch A request for funding from Huron County Road Watch has been put on Continued on page 19
