Mr. Caldwell added that the use guidelines in the secondary plan ilelticle much more than severances. Hcy tinted that a severance pttcy that is "very open can cause problems." He said that township council should "look very, very carefully at severances.," The severance issue brought about a mixed feeling from the farmers, Several spoke out in favor of severance for retirement purposes and for the use of severed land by a son or daughter. "1 think if a man wants to have his family lie around him he should be able to severhis and," said Lloyd McClinchey of RR1 Auburn. "What right has anybody to say 1 can't sever 10 acres off a 90 acre farm. Our rights are being eroded away," John Jewitt pf RRI Londesboro said of land severing.. Eric Anderson of RRi Londesboro was in support of severing land for retirement homes but cautioned the problems could come when future generations take over the homes. "If a farmer has farmed all his life, he should be able to build a retirement home. The problems come with the new generation and the next who may sell it again and again," Mr. Anderson noted. ' Some farmers opposed a severance policy that was too open, saying that with too many one acre setierances, owners could have a lot of say inthe future of the totvnship's agricultural land. The question, "should large livestock or a. poultry operations -be permitted o1,47atating''. small holdings?" brought ahot;ce comment, Many of the farmers feiti,i andfuid • be allowed, "You can't force young elle, to ' purchase, large amounts of . land for operations. They just cantt afford it," hiss the opinion of one farmer. . A variety of comments were given Marginal farmland, land reset'ved for agricultural use only, agricultural oomninra cial land and primary farm land.,, Councillor Gross said he was pleased with the response from the townships residents.; "1 think we had a very good response tonight..We had a lot of diversified ideas and• front that we have to try and form a consensus," councillor Gross said. "Severances seemed to be the big. issue,? what should and what shouldn't be granted, The idea of these meetings ist .to get_ something to build on," he added. Hullett Township Reeve Tom Cunning= ham said his council's role at the meeting was one of an observer. "We're here as a council to observe not to ,participate," Reeve Cunningham said, "I guess from my standpoint I had hoped people would open up a little more at the - meeting," The planning department and council will , sit down and observe the comments made at the meeting. They will be working together to produce a draft plan that is expected to be circulated to township residents this fall:, The'next meeting will be held on Jan. 23 when urban development will be the topic of discussion.
