Discuss Regional Development (Continued from Page 1) plan for the regional develop. ment of the province will be begun. In his introductory remarks to the meeting, I. G. Needles, of the University sof Waterloo, said the Ontario government was "quite serious" about a plan for regional development. "A regional development council with strong local in- volvement and support can ex- ert a major influence in guid- ing the future of the region's growth and development," ex- plained Mr. Needles. 'To be ef- fective in this role it must con- cern itself with development re- search and with either the im- plementation of programs sof or the co-ordination of existing and future programs for the growth of agriculture, tourism and recreation, commerce and industry, and essential service development." Major concerns with agricul- ture are land use, planning, conservation, increased produc- tivity by farm units and their effect on the economy of a par- ticular area of the region. Tour- ism would be studied in rela- tion to the future recreation needs that will develop as a result of the increased press- ures created by major urban centres and increased leisure time. Commerce and industry may be best designated into certain areas of a region—that is one town assuming the role of a trading centre for sur- rounding communities where industry might flourish more readily. "Industry seeks flat land, reasonably priced, completely serviced with sewage, water, roads, zoning restrictions and housing for potential employ- ees," Mr. Needles advised. "Good schools and recreation facilities are important. As in- dustries locate and grow these problems can become important financially both for income and outlay for facilities." Mr. Needles explained the present organization of MODA and regretted that past experi- ence has made it difficult to meet more than about once or twice a year. To rectify this problem, Mr. Needles suggested two alternatives—Plan A which makes each of the four zones in MODA a small development council with its own executive secretary and membership drawn from all quarters from which four members would be- come representatives at MODA council; or Plan B which dis- penses with zone identification and appoints representatives di- rectly to MODA council from the entire area. In a work session men and women from the Huron zone represented at the meeting se- Iected Plan A as the most effi- cient. Local people expressed their views that lack of co-ordi- nation between MODA council and the "grassroots" had de- feated the intended purpose of the liaison. County council members at the session noted that Huron had spent $5,000 on MODA and had been somewhat disappointed at the results. Opinion was that MODA's purpose in the area was to as- sist communities to provide the proper climate for business and expansion, to introduce new businesses and service existing ones, bring about orderly de- velopment in the zones, work to keep young folks in their home regions so that persons living there could capitalize on their education expenditures and gen- erate enthusiasm for the dis- trict. It was felt that through Plan A, more local involvement would increase the likelihood of far-reaching benefits for all. There would be more direct representation, better co-ordi- nation and proper 'opportunity if the executive secretary and the president of each zone were functioning at top interest. Main objection to the plan was the cost of hiring an ex- ecutive secretary. Although the meeting was undecided about who would finance the added expenditure, it was generally assumed that the zones would be responsible for selecting and paying any personnel added at the local level.

RENSALL "increase taxation and expen- diture". One group suggested a "float- ing secretary" who would over- see all four zones. This idea was scorned by William Urqu- hart of MODA who said the physical and economic differ- ences of the four counties would make this impractical. O t h e r thoughts expressed were that the job could be done "voluntarily" by some interest- ed citizen or achieved as an 'added duty" for some promi- nent secretary -treasurer of a municipality, board or even the county. Hume Clutton, of Goderich, motioned that the meeting go on record as favoring Plan A but that discussion of finances be left to a later meeting. This met with the approval of the gathering, As a parting word, one ob- server muttered, "It's no damn good the way it is ... we might as well change it".
