make up his mind to lake a job at the first of this year that has attached to it a deadline 11 mo tits from now As the new chairman of the Niagara Escarpment Commission Is charged by Premier Davis to produce an Official Plan for the miles of geographical history which snakes Its way down through eight countries hamlets villages and towns and eight conservation authorities from Tobermory to Niagara Falls It was with reluctance that he took charge of the commission noted for the diversity of viewpoints of Its mem bers because he had to quit another job as Mayor of Caledon I had made a commitment to Caledon he told the Herald after a month on the new job And it t easy to say I m a quitter For It brought an end to years In municipal politics He started as a councillor on Albion Township after years on the school board He became Reeve of Albion then Mayor when it became Prior to the in troducIionofReglonalgovemmentlnlB72 he was Warden of Peel County Across the wood panelled wall in the office the chairman occupies In Georgetown dappled winter sunlight plays across a large waterfall On the wide dark desk a single cigarette has been lain and throughout the interview McMullln toys with it It is a long way from the hills of Albion where he was a farmer at the time the Metropolitan Tronto and Region Con Authority was buying acres of land I was concerned with the methods thv used and sold so First thing you know he said with a chuckle you are on a com mlttee After serving the Metropolitan Toronto Region Construction Authority for eight years he was mode a life member and in 1973 was appointed to he NEC An associate his on the commission says It takes some one who can draw these people together Ivor got a knack Besides developers planners con businessmen municipal and provincial politicians other planning boards and members of his own commission works with Bill C129 legislation the passed In 1973 which contains unique development control It means that oilier government ministries and groups in Ontario are watching how it works The legislation bypasses municipal bylaws ministers zoning orders and Parkway Belt West Regulations in the escarpment developemnt control area and instead issues genera guidelines for development until a Master Plan is com pleted Each application for development is considered separately McMullln said the legislation stemmed from a report written by Leonard Gertie in talked to years about doing something about the escarpment I believe It working and has a great deal of merit for use in future of red tape and bureaucracy It will be difficult to accomplish ell that Is in he admits but with tbe co operation of municipal and regional councils It can be done When he speaks of cooperation Mullln moves the cigarette to bis month and the desk for matches Recently the board has heard criticism of its appeal process mostly from disgruntled developers who must then appeal the com mission s decisions to the minister of housing who then appoints a bearing officer to review and representations before the minister makes a final decision I think it is working well said adding that Dalvd hearing officer appointed by the government has upheld the commission at some times and other times has not What the commission frowns upon most is strip development along the road McMullln sold Strip development shouldn be done has Initiated series of meetings with municlapl councils Eight to nine meetings with each township council In Grey County alone notes on associate of the commission It has meant more work and is not sure that the commission staff will be able to finish the Plan by end of this year He directed staff members to work with the plans of other regions some of which been working on plans longer then the NEC It has meant even more work Why People will understand we re not going to bulldoze through muncipalltles Inside the office sunlight has moved over to touch the brilliant red leaves of a Outside the office a meeting that appearance Finally he lights the cigarette and aayn I haven done any golfing since He can t remember He s got a set of golf be used only twice His hobbles other than Trout ponds and hiking are those two Lena and I get more enjoyment from Now that the cigarette is lit be keeps inviting you to stay So what that there a a meeting outside So what that before the interview someone attending that meeting asked you to keep the interview short got you here now and be wants to keep you wants to get to know you better wants to hear your views He talks to you of regional government of how muchjand the government has purchased up in Bruce County of how drastic budget cuts likely will set back the NEC land buying program I m not concerned If we can do proper planning we can get it later Some development will be allowed until the public can afford to buy the land Con I hope were still practicing ft years from now Charles and Ivy of Glen Williams celebrated their wedding
