Somebody on council must have cornered the market on metre sticks. Then this baffling by- law moves into "hec- tares." What the heck is a hectare? To me, it's an ancient French (Canadian) piece.tof land about as accurate as an acre, which nobody understands either. Here's an example.: "RM2 uses are permitted as specified to a maximum of 550 persons per hectare." Is it a square mile? Is it a "H!acre" wit' an accent? This is crazy. When I was a councillor, we could knock off three or four by=laws in a meeting, and everybody understood • them.
