HomeMy WebLinkAboutWingham Advance-Times, 1980-05-28, Page 5• Tur»berey T,oWn5 tip Council is considering a , prep�oo6a�l1 from the Maitland Valley' Conservation Authority, regarding future development in flood :prone areas along the Maitland River. Bryan Howard, general manager for the MVCA, attended the council meeting last Tuesday evening and explained that the authority would like to use the one -in - 100 -year storm flood line as a boundary `against further development in flood areas: The policy in the past has been the regional line, or what the affect a Hurricane Hazel would have on the township. While presenting a map illustrating flood areas in Lower Wingham, Mr. Howard pointed out that the land elevation difference between the one -in -100 -year line and the regional flood line is approximately 32 to four feet, with the, regional boundary encompassing more land. .. Together with explanation of the new boundary, Mr. Howard outlined a system of legally regulating future development in flood areas by registering flood line maps with the Ministry of Natural Resources. He said if the municipality would pass a motion requesting this registration the MVCA could legally halt construction and land filling below the Alza, anydevelopment between the regional fine and the oniel 100 year line could be subject -%to -flood proofing requirements. Councillor Doug Fortune explained to Mr. Howard that ' many township residents were unhappy with the regional line because it took in almost half of Turn - berry properties. He suggested that the new boundary is a more realistic approach to flood problems. Council members offered limited feedback on the registration proposal, but promised that it Would be considered at a future date. Mr. Howard also said that properties in the priority one area in Lower Town, that are currently up for sale, Might be acquired by the MVCA. Turnberry, the benefiting municipality, would be responsible for 15 per cent of the costs. It was also decided that the MVCA and the township would trade lots near the corner of Herbert and Helena streets in Lower Town, for the purpose of straightening Helena Street. Council will instruct its solicitor to proceed with the road closing of Herbert and Helena streets so con- struction• for the straightening can take place. The township committee, set up to review bylaws of the Wingham and District 105p VOOlVit eeting..ite itw decided . . present a motion at Malmo - piton} annual meeting proposing that nominations from 'the floor for a repre- sentative of a municipality be Made only by residents of that municipality. In other words, Turnberry's representative could be nominated.:only' by Turn - berry residents, Murray Elston, the town- ship solicitor, will be con- tacted to see if the practice is legal according to the - Corporations Act. After a discussion with John Underwood, an appli- cant for tile drain assistance, council decided to change the cutoff date for all future drain loans in order to speed up payments of funds to, applicants. Mr.. Underwood , pointed out that since the cutoff date for loans is June 30, and Ttirnberry's practice . is to"/ wait until all loan allotments have been receivedfrovet the government before issuing them, a farmer may have to wait Until January or February of the next 'year before receiving payment of the loan. He suggested that by moving the cutoff date up and issuing a percentage of the loan in August or Sep- tember, a farmer would save money by cutting down the amount of interest being paid on drain work. alnmai rer idoerr ea of Probably January,' following ye ' alp can collectt'they .repa from fernier* earlier stead of reeovermg the;lkc through tax bills, a r will be billed separt beginning 12. months of receipt of the system will apply only future loan applicatiol* - Another motion was.. passed designating the Blue-` „ vale Hall as -a community recreation centre.
