Friday. (News -Record photo) Huron rural: F. of A. Home builders should look some place else besides rural Huron County says the Huron Federation of Agriculture. Federation members Thursday night adopted in principle -a tough land -use policy which recommends that no severances be allowed for new residences in rural areas. The policy, which is to be presented to all township councillors and the County Planning Department for consideration, says "a limited amount of planned expansion may be permitted in, or adjacent to existing towns." But ,the Federation wants no major develop- ments to take place in Huron. "Major disruptive in- dustrial and institutional complexes should be prohibited in Huron County,, eg. power plants, steel mills, etc." the brief recommends. The policy paper was drawn up by the Huron 'Federation's Land Use and Tariff committee consisting of Merle Gunby, Gordon Blanchard, Charlie Thomas, George Underwood, Douglas Cameron, and John Oke. The committee, according to Merle Gunby, was split on the issue of granting severances for existing surplus residences in the rural area. The committee -compromised on the issue saying they had "serious reservations" about such severances. "This is just sitting on the fence," said one farmer. "Surely we can take a stand on this." Other farmers said it would be "a waste" not to allow severances in some case. After 40 minutes discussion the resolution passed as originally presented by the committee. The Federation also recommended that steps be taken to "preserve the agriculturally oriented community, which provides a compatible economic and social environment in which the family farm can function efficiently." Mobile homes should only be permitted as part of a mobile home park, or as a residence for someone who is actively engaged in operating a farm, the brief states. The brief rejects the Ontario Governments stand that land use planning -be done only at the municipal level. "We suggest that there is a need 'for Provincial Gover- nment involvement in the planning process, to designate large areas for specific uses," it reads. Federation members heard an explanation of new income tax laws from Bill 1VIcEachern and Fred Sisson of the Kitchener tax office. • A resolution was passed banning smoking at all future Federation meetings.
