Huron. County council
learned Friday that it could
spend $25,000 and save the
county housing industry mil-
lions of dollars in interest,
Months of waiting for ap-
proval• for housing projects in
the county can be avoided
and huge interest payments
• on money raised by
developers' tol finance those
projects can be saved ac-
cording to a- report given
council by the county
planning board. .
Theiproject basically turns
approval_powerlor housing
projects in • Huron - County,
over to county council. Any
projeets now planned for .the
county have to go to the
ministry of housing for final
approval and under the
• . suggested system final
• approval, if no objections to
the development are lodged,
• would rest with council.
The bulk of ,the., savings
woul& be •rea lized by
avoiding the 'provincial. ap- .
•
provalMany plans clear the
red tape of planning locally
only to sit on the desk of the
minister of housing for
months. Developers are not
permitted to start building
Until final approval is given
by the province atid end up
waiting an undetermined'
amount of time.
SAVINGS
County planner Gary
Davidson said the approval
by cOuncil could result in
"enorrnous savings'". He
said it could chop six months
off the waiting period that
a thorn in the sides of
developers. He said the
savings may be passed on to
consumers meaning slightly
cheaper housing but pointed
out that any decision to, pass
those savings on would be
made by developers.
The planner said the pro-
ject came before council -be-
cause if council decided it
wanted to go ahead with :it

Parttnent would have to clear
up all its outstanding work by
January 1. He said a junior
•planner would have to be
hired by the county bt the
fait of 1979 to permit some-
one in the department to take
over responsibilities created
by the approval takeover.
• in a report to council the
planning board said the total
cost of the change would be
about S25,000.. The initial
• setup of the system will cost
about S1,500 and the salary
of the junior planner to be
_hired is about_116,000. The_
remainder of the money will
be used to set up the
administration process to be,
followed locally.
-EAGER
'--The-ministry of housing -is --
eager enough to give local
governments approval of
developments to give those
governments grants to set up
systems- to allow those
•approvals to be given.
Ministry- official irriiratari
Mar gratin are available
from the province for such a
move locally.
In its report planning
board said the grants have
only been suggested and no
firm commitments or
amounts have been given by
the ministry. The board said
the transition could be
budgeted for over two years
suggesting that $10,000 in
1979 would be enough to get
the project off the gfound
with the remaining costs to
be budgeted for in 1980.
SHILVED
The board suggested that
the system' be shelved 'for
1979 but that an in-
vestigation be continwid as
• to subsidies which may be
-available should- the -comity'
assume responsibility in 1980
Davidson said the firm ncial
realization of such a move
. would not be known until the
,county could determine how
• much the development in-,
dustry .spends waiting", •
