Prison Art
at Historic Jail
Upon visiting the Huron Historic Jail
this week until September 25th, one can
see prison' art from across Canada.
This is the third year for the exhibits at
the jail and Curator Harold Erb said the
pieces of art come from a nation-wide
competition. Before Goderich, the art was
in Prince Edward Island.
The Prison Art Foundation, founded in
1967, whose headquarters are in Brant-
ford, sponsor the event.
The 30 art pieces at the jail, consisting of
paintings, charcoal sketches and a ham
. mered copper picture entitled, "The
Whooping Crane" are from 13 years of
competitions. The theme of the art varies
from painful images, nature scenes and
symbolic paintings.

Action has been deferred by Huron County
Council un a recommendation that it ask the
provincial government to delegate the ap-
proval for certain planning functions to -
county council.
The recommendation was made at coun-
cil's regular September session during a
report presented by its planning and
development committee. However, fears
expressed by some members of council that
such action could have serious ramifica-
tions prompted deferral of the issue until all
members of council have had time to review
a detailed submissionon delegation
prepared by the planning and development
department.
In the report presented by the committee,
council was told that the Planning Act
allows delegation by the provincial govern-
ment, of some planning functions to county
council.
The report recommended council ask for
formal delegation of: Approval authority
for plans of subdivision; approval authority
for plans of condominium; approval
authority for part lot control bylaws; ap-
proval authority for road closings pursuant
to specific sections of 'the Planning Act and
review of zoning bylaws as per the
minister's interest, including official plan
conformity, minister's zoning orders and
provincial policy.
Bayfield Reeve Dave Johnston was the
first to raise concern over the committee's
recommendation and said he feared -Huron
County is trying to assume control of all
planning.
"I would like to know why you feel the
county would be able to do a job better than
the local municipalities, he asked county
planning director Gary Davidson.
Mr. Davidson replied 'that the final ap-
proval authority does 'not rest with the
municipality currently, but with the pro-
vince and as a result projects often are bog-
ged down waiting for a provincial decision.
"This (delegation) would bring the deci-
sion one step closer to the municipality," he
-V COUNCIL
said. Delegation would not take any authori-
ty from the local municipality, he added.
Mr. Johnston, however, said he felt the
planning and development department
could be putting the county in the position of
possible conflict with one of its member
municipalities. In his opinion, the county is
not in that position at present since the onus
of final approval is at the provincial level.
Mr. Davidson argued, however, that the
situation of possible conflict already exists
under the current system since the provin-
cial government usually goes along with
county' recommendations on such planning
functions. An elaborate system of checks
and 'balances, however, usually allows the
municipality to say no to a development if it
does not want it, he said.
Problems occur, however, when the
municipality and county have given ap-
proval to development and the ministry is
dragging its heels."
Exeter Reeve Bill Mickle said that since
the planning and development department
is involved in the drafting procedure for
such functions' as bylaws, delegation of ap-
proval authority to the county would very
likely place it in a position of conflict.
Mr. Davidson again argued that the poten-
tial for this scenario already exists under
the current system and that delegation
would not increase the risk of that happen-
ing. "If a local municipality does not ap-
prove a bylaw, there is no bylaw," he said.
Mr. Johnston supported Mr. Mickle's sug-
gestion that council defer action on 'the
recommendation until members' of council
have had more time to study the detailed
report. He also suggested that Mr. Davidson
or a representative speak to each of the
local councils on the report during the defer-
ral period.
Council will again consider the recom-
mendation at its regular October meeting.
