forested areas and agriculture decision to go ahead with the formation of the group came after a long and heated debate to Its merits and membership Miltons Mayor Anne MacArthur felt that the membership waa not broad enough favoring tbe experts and not tbe general public Its completely biased in Its setup We wont hear from the general public I feel well be getting a great deal of Input from tbe environmentalists and little from the general public Mayor called for a larger committee Including all persons Involved with the environment Including a representative from clubs from the federation of agriculture from quarry firms and hunting clubs Their Input at the early committee stage would avoid confrontation later on she said Councillor MacAnderson from felt that the entire study was unnecessary Its so full of that It Just not going to give what we want Its not necessary Councillor Jim Watson of Milton complained Were looking for loopholes to slow down the planning process This Is certainly one of them He felt that the time taken by the volunteer committee to produce their report would be better spent by regional staff handling the problem Memben of the planning board however remained firm that the committee would prove Important In providing an environmental viewpoint in finalizing of Halton Of ficial Plan Were attempting to work within the budget and timetable set down com Councillor Archie With this com we re looking for a lot of free advice from some very knowledgeable people ROYAL CANADIAN LESION Branch IN Mill St Wed Dec 10th 13 111 GAMES
