J CLINTON NEWS -RECORD, Wtb 1I DAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 1986—Page 3 Bayfield secondary plan under discussion it o from page 1 Bayfield resident to the effect they would rather have 188 people making the decision than one or two people, but sleeve Johnston put a stop to the debate by pointing out the meeting was to hear the public's opinion, not for argument. On the topic of Bay£ield's devoprnent Charles Rogers said, "We have to take into consideration with the development of Bayfield that we have no control over development in the other townships (Stanley and Goderieh Townships) which fail to enhance the character of Bayfield, Miss Fisher explained, that she held a meeting for all three nfunlcipalitles because of this difficulty. "We are not looking at it singularly; but as it affects all three," she explained. Another resident, Marshal Smith, wanted to know who would make the final decision on the 1 nd under question, and how binding this decision would be. The lanning department would like to have it •esolved by the end of the year, Miss Fisher eplied, and following their recom- mendat on it will go to. the village council, then county council and finally the Ministry of Municipal Affairs. "Once the county ap- provcs the document they win set people know, a d if they want to fight it, it will go to the OM (Ontario Municipal Board). Their decisio is binding." Geor e Fellows thought that to maintain abalanc on the river front property, perhaps the lan should be recreational. He stated, "If the a is no undue resistance, it could becom passive recreational. It could become a driving range or a boat dock for canoes nd rowboats, it would compliment the are." "Permitting outboard or motor boats would necessitate dredging to allow the boats in. This would disturb the tranquility of the flra and fauna. Also, motor boats create waves, and money has beon spent to prevent wave action• in the river. You are going to have erosive waves, and it. will af- fect the banks," Mr. Fellows continued. John Chapman suggested the gathered people, through a show of hands, could give their opinion of how the land should be used. Reeve Johnston replied, "We have heard from a number of representatives, arid it is very hard to record a show of hands. We will take the tapes and the,letters and make a decision, and this decision will be reviewed. A speech on the• wildlife and history of the river and how It would be damaged by change was given by Nell Mustard. lie explained that in the river was clay, silt.and gravel, and the gravel was the most hnportant factor. "The algae; In the river need to attach themselves to stones, the algae support the live of the crayfish, and the larvae of mos- quitoes, black flies and may flies, the fish eat the larvae and rneneat the fish," Mr. Mustard said. "If you destroy the chain you will have a dad river with green water that stinks to high heaven. That's why we don't want change.''Different methods could ruin this environ- ment he said, such as removing the gravel, jetting the bottom of the river with motor boats orchanneling it. Mr. Mustard also quoted some govern- ment representatives and conservation authorities as saying there is practically no limit to the wildlife in the river, it is a high priority stram ani important spawning Lit1e Seedlings learn ab ut preserving fruits The cKillop No. 4 "Little Seedlings" held th it fourth meeting at the home of Karen an Bakel on August 19.

' 1'llere is a poor potential for commercial development, there is a lack of vacant land and public beaches, and a strong visual ap- pearance in the Bayfield River," Mr. Mustard recited. "It is recommended for day vieWing...for hiking, canoing, kayaking and no bloody motor boats," Sorineone who did not confer with this opi- nion was Phil G tneinhardt, who said that Captain Bayfield visualized a natural har- bour in the mill pond area. "Wherever he is now, he would smile if it were a harbor," he said. "I can see why people favour.a natural en- vironment area," Ken Hulley said in opposi- tion to building in the area. "I :went through a mental exercise; and I saw sailors washing their boats. I counted 17 bottles of detergent, we don't need any more of this, it will disturb the natural environment." Other questions arose as to whether there was any application put in to build on the area in question as it was under so much discussion. "I am concerned about the type 'of development in the area, I am not aware of what type of development will be there," Ed Kelly said. This question was redirected at Mr. Davis, who replied, "Mr. Peever put forth a request fora marina east of the bridge in 1978, he withdrew it, and this has been the status for the past two years. There is no im- minent application for a marina east of the bridge." Once the plan is passed and goes from its draft into the actual plan it will be under constant review by both council and the public.
