Zurich Citizens News, 1976-05-26, Page 3Citizens News, May 26, 1976 -Page 3 final meeting in Hensall planning series By HILDA M. PAYNE Existing land use problems, ays of rectifying them and future possibilities for the land are the main factors to be solved in drawing up the Secondary Plan for Hensall. These are the facts that have colne out of the series of , Workshops held for planning the future development of Hensall. At the final meeting, chaired by Reeve John Baker, the con- flicting uses of land were again emphasized. industry, commerce and residential are continually overflowing .onto each other, in turn causing general high traffic flow overloading local streets. To remedy this situation, the Secondary Plan will zone areas for residential, commercial, in- dustrial and institutional develop- ment. Thus areas with related functions will develop, and existing. incompatible uses will he phased out, without disruption to surrounding activities. To this end, an Industrial/ Commercial Park is being con- sidered for new enterprises and to provide an option for the expansion for existing concerns. A second access road to Highway 4 would separate industrial and local traffic and keep heavy traffic away from residential areas. This Secondary Plan should strive to strengthen the viability and vitality of the downtown arca, improved parking. improved exteriors., more services being sonic of the improvements suggested. More single-family dwellings and senior citizens accommodations cane high on the list for housing, but mobile homes should be confined to a mobile honk park. Most people still like owner- ship of a separate house and large lot to ensure privacy -- condominiums are out for Hen- sall. Small play -lots in residential areas might be an advantage. Annexation, or not, is still the vital question. The existing rural character, though enjoyed by most, docs not promote growth. Expansion is necessary to provide housing and job opportunities: increased popu- lation is needed to provide more and better services. A target of 2,000 people w ithin tw enty years is suggested as the aim w ith annexation. From these suggestions, gathered from all the various Workshops. a draft plan w ill be draw n up and brought to the public in the fall. Discussion w as conducted by Roman Dzus, Assistant County Planner, and was not lengthy. The problem of drainage in the south-east sector was aired and assurance given that an adequate storm -sewer system was coming to Hensall. In closing, Mr. Dzus stressed again that any plan presented would be aimed at reflecting the general feelings of the public and the township involved, taking into consideration the economics involved. Huron to vaccinate 28,000 against swine flu threat About 28,000 people will be vaccinated against Swine Flu in Huron County within tour weeks, members of Huron County Council learned Thursday at the regular May session. Deputy -reeve Bill Dale cif Scaforth, speaking on behalf of the chairman of the Board of Health, Reeve Ed Oddleifson of Bayfield who was absent, said it was the hoard's understanding about 5,000,000 persons would be innoculatcd in Ontario within a four week period. "They are going to need many volunteers," Mr. Dale continued. The deputy -reeve then smiled and said that if his services are required, he would be pleased to volunteer to innoculate the staff at the court house first -and then each of the county councillors. • It was learned the county w ill make application to the Ministry of Health on behalf of the steering committee of the Children's and Adolescents' Mental Health Services, for funds to finance the employment of a full tinge director of the Huron Centre of Children and Youth, This facility was promised by the Ontario government at the time the facilities at Goderich Psychiatric Hospital were closed. It will be financed 100 per cent by the province, but the county has to make application for the funds. No site has been chosen as yet for the facility. It is believed that when a director is secured, that person will make all the necessary arrangements.
