Continued from front page
there is no law binding the
township to allow access
through the one foot reserve.
The county's lawyer, D.J.
Murphy of Goderich, said it is
"preposterous" to think that
East Wawanosh Township
would not agree to allow ac-
cess to the school society.
The lawyers also disagreed
on whether or not the propos-
ed severance agreed with the
agricultural code of practice
or with the township's secon-
dary plan.
"Both applications do not
comply with the county of-
ficial plan or the township's
secondary plan," said Ostner.
The township's lawyer
argued that because Hutton
Heights is not an urban area,
an institution such as a school
shouldn't be located in what is
termed a residential area.
Ostner also commented on
an alternative site proposed
by the township. There is va-
cant property in the hamlet of
Belgrave which is partly
located in the township. East
Wawanosh is suggesting the
school locate at that site.
Murphy termed the
Belgrave suggestion a "red
herring" because the same
objections such as further en-
croachment on prime
agricultural lands, would still
be voiced. The Goderich
lawyer argued that the
severance does comply with
the official plan which states
institutional buildings can be
located anywhere in the coun-
ty and the secondary plan
follows the county plan.
The site chosen by the
Christian society would affect
the township the least, said
Murphy, because it is in an
area where development has
already taken place.
Hutton's lawyer, Norman
Pickell of Kincardine, argued
that the severed land should
be designated institutional.
He said if the land is severed,
the zoning should follow as a
matter of course.
He pointed out that, of four
planners speaking as
witnesses, three agreed the
severance complied with
regulations. The district
manager of the Foodland
Preservation Branch of the
Ontario Ministry of
Agriculture and Food, Neil
Smith, was the one dissenting
planner.
The dispute among the
planners focused on a barn
located adjacent to the Hur-
ron property under considera-
tion. Smith said in earlier
testimony that the barn is too
close to the proposed school
site.
However, county planners
said there is no intensive
livestock operation at the
barn.
Hutton was called as a
witness on the last day of the
hearings. He testified that the
barn and land is rented out
and that the barn is only us-
ed as summer shade. The real
estate broker added that he
intends to remove the barn in
the spring.
Other evidence given dur-
ing the hearing indicated it
would cost about 85,000 to
develop an extension to
Crawford Street in Hutton
Heights to accommodate
potential school traffic.
Township road superinten:
dent Ralph Campbell said it
would also be necessary to
improve the road to allow pro-
per winter maintenance.
H.W. Kelly and S.R. Cole,
the OMB members hearing
the evidence will inform the
three parties of their decision
when it is made.

Exeter court
Continued from front page
The court learned that Mar-
s.iall had spent nine days in
jall because he had previous-
ly failed to appear on the
charges and also that he suf-
fered from heart problems.
The Crown requested an
order of 82,740.32 on behalf of
the Dashwood merchant and
this was approved by Judge
Cochrane.
John L. East, Clinton, was
also given suspended
sentences and placed on pro-
bation for one year after
pleading guilty to three.
charges of uttering forged
documents.
East had cashed cheques
made out to a former boarder
at his home and had signed
the boarder's name on the
cheques. Each of the cheques
was worth 8228.
The court learned that the
57 -year-old Clinton man is on
a disability pension and has
heart problems. He had no
previous record and his
lawyer suggested he had
acted out of character in com-
mitting the offences.
