Post Office Dept., Ottawa Snowdon Bros., Publishers TUCKERSMITH • SEAFORTH CONSIDER JOINT PLANNING 'A broad picture of planning, for future growth and guiding (than growebh so it would (develop to the 'advantage of ',the whole area was. (outlined by John ]Brown of the (Ontario !Depart- ment of P'l'anning and Develop - anent, in a 'conference Monday evening 'with members of Sea - forth and Puekersnvi h Councils: Mayos iDr. McMaster presided.. A good place to start discus- sion, said IMr. Brown,was about the area involved. •Councillors said it could inc'lude hall of Sea - forth and all or part of Tuck- ersmilth, 11b was mentioned that .M'e- QK,illoP (township, rvvhieh abuts the area on the north, would , not be included and this was unfortunate as it 'could create problems from uneontrolledde- velopment, ' .. A broad view. Should be tak- en, Mr. Brown said. Planning ;was not just for one or )two years, but was for at least a generation. It was not zoning —zoning was restrictive. Whet -has been 'done so far towards, planning in this area, asked Mr. Brown. 'Seaforbh has a topographical layout and ' a plan for sewers, but otheriwise little preparation has been made in this area. !Conditions are constantly on. the 'change, said Mr. Brown. To- day a man, can live in Gederich and work in (Seaforth, or lave in ISeaforbh and work in !Strat- tford. 1An'd tomorrow he may live much further away from his work. Planning, must be flexible and change with its plans as condi- tions ,change. (When new conditions arise it must look to the " future and predict how they will affect the community.. Formation of a Board (An urban centre has a pull or attraction in the surround- ing area {and a ,planning ` area should cover "that, said Mr. Brown. !if a joint board is formed it could have six members—three from each municipality. • A planning board is entirely ad- visory. It has no administrative authority. It makes recommenda- tions to the council, who decide on action and policy. What It Costs A planning board will cost mo- ney, said Mr. Brown. It is sup- posed to draw up a budget for a year's necessities and ,submit it to council. If a consultant is en- gaged, it May cost quite a lot of money. Mayor McMaster inquired about the term of office of planning board members. Members can be appointed for up to three years, except a councillor, who sits for one year. Board's Duties Duties of the planning board ,..,, include holding public meetings and interesting citizens in its worlc to obtain co-operation. A bear should planning d sh dnot work behind olosed doors. It should consult with all local boards, school boards and other public bodies which could help with ideas and suggestions.' A planning board should pre- pare a plan suitable for adoption. A plan is a program, too, how land should be used. It could make suggestions how its plans could be financed. A planning board does not administer a zon- ing bylaw. In Seaforth, Dr. McMaster said, we have some vacant land. Mr. Brown replied,. to atop isolated development, control is neces- sary. A. farmer sells a few acres, development starts and the township is not geared for the schools and transportation prob- lems. Sale of Land Can a planning board acquire land, asked the Mayor. Only a municipality can acquire land, said Mr. Brown, and it must be within its own boundaries. He said it was all right for a farmer to sell one or two lots from his•larm to a son or dawgh- ter. It was all right for him to sell in blocks of ten acres or more. In a general discussion about the area of Tuckersmith to be taken in, Mayor McMaster said Egmondville should be included and how much further to go? Harpurhey was mentioned. How far over towards Seaforth did Clinton's influence extend? Clin- ton lipton so far had not taken up planning, but ,allowance for its interest in Tuckersmith could be provided. • 'Similarly, if the whole of Tuck- ersmith were' taken• into the scheme the interests. of Brucefleld and Kippen- could -he considered. Hensel was expanding and very possibly soon could have an int- erest in its area. Councillor Kellar asked about paying members of the planning board. Most of the bbards,.-said Mr. Brown, act in an honoral: y ' capacity, but the budget should -cover expenses. Zoning What It Is Reeve .coin inquired about a planning area for Seaforth and Ngmondville, • Zoning laws, said Mr. Brown,. have a Mach longer history than has community planning. Zoning is restrictive' and pro- tective, and is going out of date. In zoning there is no planning on how the community is going to grow and it hinders rather than helps growth. Tuckersmith councillors asked if you could take in five miles. The idea., said Mr. Brown, was to control and guide development and, not to stop it. - Development should take place in a fail way for all the people. Councillor Kellar asked about a one mile limit. -. A control bylaw need not co- incide with a planning area, said Mr. Brown. It 'would affect the area across .the road in McKillop.„. It would push into that township all those who did not want con- trol, and this would lead to an uncontrolled development, with all its attendant problems of sewerage, schools and other fac- ilities. It was not a question of one 'mile, or five miles, but of how much you wanted. Reeve Scoins asked if council would have. to pass a by-law de. fining an. area. You could have a bylaw for Part of the area, said Mr. Brown. A zoning bylaw could cover the whole municipality. Regarding Building `Tuckersmith councillors asked. if it would be necessary under a planning scheme for a farmer to have' a permit if he was building e drive shed on his own land. Thatwould depend on a. build- ing bylaw said Mr. Brown, not on a planning, .scheme. A farmer putting up a building deals direct - ]y with the contractor or does his own contracting and thus would know what material was going Into it. A building bylaw should deal primarily with buildings on small plots and built for sale. A building byla'w's main purpose is to 'prevent erection of .shanties and other buildings unsuited for habitation. Needs Assistance Should we have a joint board here or subsidiary boards, asked Da'. lylcMaster. A joint board, recommended Mr, Brown. - Each municipality can pass a resolution asking to be included in area or part of the township, and the minister will make it a designated planning area. Members of the board are then named by the two councils. A. joint planning board getting started requires six months and a great deal of assistance, said Mr. Brown- He offered all that he and his branch could give, It would likely be two years after it started before the joint board could bring forward a plana The 'mayor in adjourning the meeting, thanked Mr. Brown for his assistance. Rocket Launched At Seaforth Saturday 'The launching of the Russian Sputnik carrying a dog into outer space •during the weekend had a small counterpart in Sea - forth. A rocket launching took place here on Saturday after- noon, the leulniination of con- siderable planning and work on the part of a high school boy, Nelson Ball. !Several other boys were spectators and assisted. \A leifgbh of iron pipe, welded to angle irons and fastened to a board, was the launching base. Gunpowder was the rocket fuel. An electric light bulb wibh dike glass removed and wired to a button in a nearby stable, was the firing medhanisan. The rock- et was a piece of 'broom handle with metal vanes to -hold it on. course. According to an eye (witness plans were that the boys would stay in the barn for protection, but curiosity (brought all out ex- cept 'the boy who Nati to stay in- side to press rile firing (button. "We didn't see ;the rocket go, it went' so fast" the report. states. But it must have gone up quite a distance (before fall- ing back to earth about fifteen seconds later. The board in the launching base was blown to pieces, one section going clear over the Ibann. A hole several inches deep was blastedwin Mahe ground. A concrete base will be used for the next l'auniching, if there is one. Such is 'progress. The .IRus- sian .satellites are going to af- fect our way of life. Already the model ainplllane is on the way out and the model rocket is here.

Barn Burned In Hallowe'en Fire An old barn on a grass •faccm owned by Warden Haney on lot 5, con. 3,.Tuckersmtdb, area der stroyed by fire about midnight on Hallowe'en. Thera is no elec- tricity on the farm and it is thought the fire may have been started by. pranksters. IAlbowt 100 bales of hay. be- longing to Jos, ` Cooper were burned and an old cultivator,• mower and rake be'longing to Lloyd .Haney: The fire was first noticed by a . brother, Lloyd, who lives across the corner. (Seaforth fire- men made a quick response, but Ile fire had too much start. However the fire was kept frown spreading to an a'dja'cent barn. Neither' ib'uilding was on foun- dation.' Twenty -lour hours later, on Friday night, the firemen were again called to the scene when fire was noticed in the " other old barn, and this 'blaze was quickly put out. • JSome insurance was carried.

The ear, a V-6 d)o'dge '56. was pulled from the :building. J. B. Higgins, an employee, went into the pit with a fire exting- uisher and stayed until forced out by sapoke. In the meantime a call was sent in and (Seaforth brigade re- sponded with both trucks. Chem- icals were used to smother the flames and a hose line connect- ed to a nearby hydrant as a precaution. The owner of the car, Byron Montgomery ea (Detroit who was visiting at the Hays ,home here, said he ha'd blown out the muff- ler on the way over, and was having it repaired.
