Council approves Canadian Crane amendment
By Shawn Loughlin
The Citizen
A long-standing issue at Morris-
Turnberry Council meetings has
been resolved as Huron County
Council has approved an amendment
to the municipality's official plan to
allow the redesign of the Canadian
Crane property.
Planner Jennifer Burns said that
the rezoning of the property would
work to reduce noise and emission
impacts from the business on its
neighbours.
Burns said that the property
wouldn't address all of the suggested
changes by a neighbour, but that the
Fun for the whole family
The Blyth 140th committee held its final event at the Blyth and District Community Centre on
Dec. 31, marking the end of the village's 140th anniversary year. The event featured activities
for people of all ages including free skating that saw a lot of young people take to the ice. From

department was satisfied with the
changes being made and the effort
being put forth and recommended
approval of the application.
She said that the application was
before council because it was
disputed by a neighbour. The
neighbour suggested that her
concerns could be addressed by:
closing the property's laneway to all
personnel, the erection of a 10 -foot
fence from the laneway to the
property line, the planting of trees on
the vacant property, not allowing any
equipment repairs on the property
for any company other than Canada
Crane and that a noise bylaw should
be put in place for Saturdays and
Sundays.
Burns said that while some of
those suggestions would be
implemented, the laneway is public
and accessible to everyone and that a
planting strip is required. She also
said that a noise study would be
completed in the new year.
Several councillors were
concerned they would be imposing
regulations that were too strict on a
business that existed on the property
before the current neighbour moved
into her home. Bums said that the
home has been there for a number of
years and in fact the founders of the
business used to live in the house.
However, the business was already
on the property and operational
when the new owner moved in.
Ashfield-Colborne-Wawanosh
Reeve Ben Van Diepenbeek said he
wasn't a fan of imposing noise
restrictions on a business that could
operate 24 hours a day. He didn't
want to restrict business in Huron
County and said that such a noise
bylaw would be the first step in
silencing the business after 6 p.m.
However, the planner's
recommendation was passed by
Huron County Council.
Morris-Turnberry Mayor Paul
Gowing said that he and his council
have been very supportive of the
business at the lower -tier level and
wanted to help to ensure that
business could continue at the site in
a manner in which all parties were
happy.
