Dalton said the Code of Practice was meant
to be a guideline for integrating farming and
housing but has become an "unwritten law".
He said the code and secondary plans were
written by "people who want all the rules down
in a little book to keep farmers under control".
Cottagers aired similar concerns but made
no attempt to blame farmers for their dilemna.
Milo Garvey, a Tar -onto. lawyer-, --told- council
the plan showed little concern for landowners in
the township.
Garvey said he owned 60 parcels of land
along the lakeshore all of which were zoned
seasonal residential prior to the township's
secondary plan. He said the plan zoned his land
natural environment which meant that before
he can develop any of it he must get zoning
approvals from the township, the county and
possibly the Ontario Municipal Board.
Garvey made no attempt to hide his
displeasure over the zoning change. He told
council the new zoning was "morally wrong
and I suggest legally wrong" adding it amounts
to a freeze on his land.
He said the change "smacks of someone from
Queen's Park rxoming to Ashfield township and
saying here's what I want done with the
township with no regard for the concerns and
the rights of the people here".
Davidson said the natural environment
zoning did not necessarily make it as difficult to
develop the lakeshore property as Garvey
indicated. He said all a property owner had to
do was get approval from the county health unit
for a septic tank and clearance from the
Maitland Valley Conservation Authority that
development of the land would not create
erosion problems and council will rezone the -
land seasonal residential.
He said by making the area natural en-
vironment council was, forcing all seasonal
residential development to be compatible with
the area and with the law. He said if the lots
could not meet the requirements for septic tank
installation and erosion control council did not
want them developed.
Garvey argued that with the zoning change
proposed in the draft of the secondary plan his
development was open to objection even if it did
meet the requirements. He asked Davidson if
council could guarantee there would be no
objections to cottage development and if it
would be as easy as the planner indicated.
Davidson conceded that someone could ob-
ject to the development but suggested the
objection may, not hold up with the OMB if all
requirements were met.
"Unless you're suggesting council take steps
• •
to allow the lots to be used despite the fact they
could endanger public health or create erosion
problems," said Davidson.
George B ophy, a Lucknow lawyer, said all
ratepayers anted was for council to keep an
open mind when writing the plan. He said
council could treat each parcel off land on its
own merit realizing that a developer has spent
money on the land to develop it and now finds
thepla-n mak-es the land worthless.
Brophy said he represented an owner who
proposed a recreational development on a
parcel of land away from the lake and faced the
same dilemna. The land was now zoned natural
environment and the developer required
rezoning to go ahead with his plans.
He reminded council that a recreational
development need not take land out off natural
environment.
Davidson told the owners that preserving
natural environment was a great problem in
planning. He said a very small percentage off
land in Ashfield was natural environment and it
was important to preserve what resource was
left. He said everyone wants natural en-
vironment "but on someone else's land".
He pointed out that once natural environment
is lost it does not come back.
Brophy did not agree with council's version of
protecting natural environment calling it
"expropriation without. representation".
Dalton, who continuously urged farmers to
air opinions on the plan, suggested that council
hold another meeting for farmers only. He said
the first meeting was devoted to Port Albert,
the second session dealt with problems of
cottagers and a third could be for farmers.
He told council the farmers may be reluctant
to get up and speak at this meeting and may be
more relaxed at a session for farmers only. He
asked if council could consider such a meeting.
Ashfield reeve Warren Zinn 'said if farmers
had something to say about the plan they have
to say it in public session. He said council has
provided every opportunity for farmers oto
speak and must make a decision on the plan
soon.
Davidson said another meeting may not
resolve much because there will always be
problems between agriculture and urban
development. He said council must decide
which it wants to protect . when it writes the
plan.
That's the problem with planning in a rural
township," he said. "Do you restrict the hamlet
or restrict the farmer?"
He said council will be looking at a number of
ways that perhaps could put as little restriction
as possible -on both.
Heritage preserves...

had been done on the bylaw but added "not
enough had been done to pass it".
Councillor Elsa Haydon argued that the
bylaw is not setting a precedent pointing out to
council' that other inunicipalities had passed
one. She said when the• plan was first prdposed
in Goderich the town was among the first in the
province to get involved with heritage plan-
ning. But she added lengthy delays and public
sessions changed that.
Haydon said the heritage plan had received
more public exposure than any other planning
document pointing, out she had not seen
"crowds coming forward to object". Haydon
said council had "practically begged people to
come and object and got one".
Haydon said council was not suddenly
becoming restrictive with the heritage. plan.
pointing out that through planning legislation
the town is already telling property owners
what they "can and can't •_do with their
buildings".
She said the plan encourages owners to
protect the facade of their buildings. She added
that the plan does not force renovations but
merely suggests what can be done with a
building once the owner decides to renovate it.
Councillor James Magee told council that if
anyone doubts what a heritage plan does for a
town they should travel to a municipality that
has made the heritage plan a bylaw. He said
council, through the heritage plan, had a good
opportunity to "preserve what heritage we
have left in Goderich". Magee said he saw no
restrictions in the plan.

Councillor Jim Searls said council should not
interfere with the owners of the buildings. He
said "if a person pay§ their taxes no one has the
right to tell them what to do with their
property".
• Deputy -reeve Bob Allen said he had changed
his mind on the heritage plan. He saidhe voted
againstl.the .plan because he wanted to make
sure everyone affected knew what was hap-
pening before council passed the bylaw.
Allen told council it was essential the core
area of Goderich be preserved. He said the
town's "unique Square must be preserved
because without it we (Goderich) have
nothing".
Deputy:reeve Palmer and councillors Profit,
Searls and Brian Knights voted against the
plan.
Council .will pass a bylaw next week which
will take 'the heritage plan to its next step.
Public sessions and special meetings will now
be held to draw up the details of the plan and
designate the area and buildings affected by it.
Tough times...

education was preparing a comprehensive
report on the effects of declining enrolment
which should be ready for the board in May. He
said the board would then have to be ready to
deal with the situation.
He said dealing with declining enrolment
may cause trustees to make decisions that
would affect their future as trustees. •
"I ask you to do what you feel is just and -
fair," he said.
Outgoing chairman John Elliott told trustees
much the same thing in his final remarks. He
said the board had been through some tough
times in -the past two years but added there •
were tough times ahead. •
Elliott conceded that it may be unrealistic to
raise the kind of public interest trustees would
like but added that at least the board will h
plan to go public with.

He said the board had enjoyed some success
in raising public interest in education adding a
lot more work was needed' But he pointed out •
that no longer will the board be handling the
problem of declining enrolment in a 'piecemeal
fashion". •
•
Seaforth trustee John Henderson was ac-
claimed vice-chairman of the board when Dave
Gower, Goderich trustee, withdrew his •
nomination.•
Gower said he did not feel his one year's
experience on the board qualified him to serve
as vice-chairman. He said the reason he •
declared interest in the post was to motivate
•
other trustees to stand for election.
As vice-chairman Henderson will be chair- •
man of the board's management committee.
Zurich trustee Herb Turkheim was acclaimed
chairman of the personnel committee and Ash-
field trustee Marion Zinn was acclaimed
chairman of the education committee.
