different farm operations.
The agrominium concept"
should remain just an idea in the
minds of developers the Huron
Federation of Agriculture feels.
The Huron Federation decided
Thursday night to offer
assistance to West
Gwillumberry Township to•fight
against an experimental
agrominium being set up within
the municipality. They also pass-
ed a resolution asking the On-
tario Federation of Agriculture
to go on record against
agrominiums.
The resolutions said
agrominiums should be recogniz-
ed as a financial enterprise
benefitting the promoter and not
in the best interests of landuse
and the rural community.
An "agrominium" is a concept
developed by a large Toronto
development company, Devon
Downs Developments. Accor-
ding to the company an
agrominium would occupy about
600 acres of land with 150 housing
units. The owners of the house
would be
part owners of the far-
ming operation.
At present the company is
attempting to make the idea a
reality in West Gwillumberry
township, located thirty miles
north of Toronto. The township
council rejected the idea and
now Devon Downs is appealing to
the Ontario Municipal Board to
overrule the municipality.
Huron Federation member,
Bev Brown said the local
Federation is considering sen-
ding letters to the OMB outlin-
ing their- objections to the
proposal.
The development company
promoting agrominiums claims
the new form of farm ownership
would both perpetuate land in
agricultural production and
stimulate housing. In their
proposal the housing units would
be grouped on less than seven
percent of the land, away from
the agricultural components.
The owners of the residential
units would not actually take a
direet part in the farm work.
This would be done by a farm
staff of people with agricultural
experience.
On a model agrominium the
agricultural operation would in-
clude 390 acres cash crop; a
horse barn for 25 animals; a
piggery housing approximately
40 pigs; a beef feed lot main-
taining about 20 steers; a
chicken roost stocked with 600
capons; a fully equipped
greenhouse; a fishpond stocked
with fish; and various
recreational areas for picnics
and horseback riding.
The operation should be
profitable but agrominium
owners are not advised to depend
entirely on the agrominium for
an income, Devon Downs feels.
"Whereas the prospects of an
individual owner of the
agrominium becoming wealthy
in 'very good' years (although
not impossible) is improbable, it
is not unlikely that a modest in-
come may be derived," a Devon
Downs brief to the Ontario
Government states.
Bev Brown said such a project
would cause immense problems
for an individual municipality
and the agricultural community.
The number of children alone
from 150 new housing units would
be a major burden to the local
school system, she said.
The residences on an
agrominium would sell for more
than $100,000.
In other business, the sixty
members of the Huron Federa-
tion present at the meeting in
Bluevale saw a slide presenta-
The things that I can't have I
want,
And what I have seems second-
rate,
The things I want to do I can't,
And what I have to do I hate,
