Rezoning not required for airport lands: ministry A spokesman for the provincial ministry off municipal affairs has re- confirmed that a rezoning bylaw is not required for the proposed new Wingham municipal airport and any buildings required for its opera- tion. Brian Treble of the Huron County Planning Department told The Advance -Times in a telephone interview last week that Ken Peter- son of the ministry of municipal af- fairs told him last Wednesday that his letter of August, 1994, still stands. In it, Peterson states that it is provincial policy that airport lands and their required, associated buildings do not require a re- zoning. Treble said that representatives of the provincial ministry and the federal transportation ministry' are expected to draft a definitive state- ment outlining their positions. The airport was a topic of discus- sion at last week's meeting of Mor- ris Township Council. The airport site is located in Moms, just east of Wingham. Confusion arose last month over a letter presented by Morris resi- dent Debbie Himmelman at a town- ship council meeting late last month. The letter was from Doug Young, federal minister of trans- portation and appeared to indicate' that the airport lands would require a rezoning under the township by- law. Himmelman, who has gone pn record as opposing the airport de- velopment to be located rear her Morris property, attended last week's meeting of township coun- cil. lan Moreland, representing the airport committee also was in atten- dance, as was Craig Metzger of the Huron County Planning Depart- ment. Metzger, who had been advised by Morris council, to clarify the matter admitted at last week's meeting that he did not have much to report as he has not been in con- tact with Ken Peterson, a spokes- man for municipal affairs. The definitive word appears to be "required", Clerk -Treasurer Nancy Michie told last week's meeting of Morris council. She Said she had been speaking to Gary Davidson of the planning'depart- ment on June 26 and he told her that anything associated with the operation of an airport does not re- quire a rezoning, including an air- strip, a control room and hangar.

Kang won the Yopng People's Theatre, Word Play Competition Fence authorized After numerous attempts to have a Tumberry sawmill owner move logs back from the roadside, town- ship council has authorized a fence be built at the property. At a council meeting late last month, council accepted the tender of Pai-Da Landscaping to build a pagewire fence at McGlynn's saw- mill at a cost 'of $1,910 plus appli- cable taxes. Council also asked that a surveyor be contacted to deter- mine the exact location of the prop-- erty line. In an earlier resolution, council had given McGlynns two weeks to clean up what members. consider a safety risk, logs at or near the road- side. When the clean-up was ' not undertaken, council. authorized a fence to be built with the township bearing the cost...
