questions of the various partment heads A and answer period involving all present followed A number of Ho ton Hills residents attended the meet Hills farmer Rod who has already said he Is opposed to the plan because it will freeze land for agricultural use spoke of the need Tor a little bit of tree pruning In the civil service which eats up per cent of the Gross National Product This plan is very similar to every other plan from the region and the province give ve thi ng to v ry body M r said But what about It takes months and weeks of haggling to do what you want with your properly he said It hamner and you re driving a lot of money south boys Ed director of planning for the region of said the plan is really just a duplication of local plans We re not really creating a new monster here that any briefs which residents wish to pre sent to the region must be received by April 14 Hills C F Pat Patterson said he is concerned about some In the official plan A farmer is o be allowed a lot separation providing his principal earnings come from his farm Patterson said I know a lot of people in Hills who farm and are a credit to agriculture and none or them do It full time Patterson said also that there couple of items In the plan which are not yet law such as a 1 000foot set back In the code of practices and he asked why these items arc Included Well some want in and some want it out Mr Cum mlng responded So why should It be In just some people want It in Coun Patterson said And 1 Just like to say to all the urban people lhat the farmer Is entitled to a pension tho same as every urban per son and ihe fat cats who don need It Irene Saunders a Milton resident said I don believe Mr Patterson Is going to solve problems of the farmer by giving him a separation for another building lot I think it take people being willing pay a fair price for food Milton resident John Yare- mko Ls concerned that Farmers request region chair meeting on split planning committee agreed to chair a meeting between the Federation of Agriculture and some of the group former members In an effort to resolve Ihe dlf ferencea which caused the group to splinter At a Feb meeting in Mlllon to discuss draft of plan Ed worth of the Federation of culture and Branch a former member requested lhat the region chair a meeting between the federation and Its former members The split In Ihc group was caused by disagreement the issue of freezing farm land The federation agreed lo a land freeze provided farmers received compensation to make up for the constraints placed on their property Mr Branch and other former members disagreed with the idea of freezing farm land Mr Branch asked Ed director of planning for Region If com pcnsatlon for the farmer a loss of development rights had been considered in the official plan Mr Cumming said development rmhta had not been included in the plan After the meeting Mr Branch said he believe farmers will get development rights for their land far as compensation for Ihe loss of development rights is concerned I don think money is available for It he said Mr Branch made a point of saying that he does not represent an organization which is In opposition to the federation a stand There are few people who share my views but I am not their leader he said In original disagreement he members of the federation were asked to vote yes or no on the land freeze Issue but It wasn that simple Mr Branch said All they the government can do is Invoke various constraints Some may be good some may I m anxious to get together because if we remain apart we won get our views into the official plan he concluded residents are not aware that the draft plan Includes a pro posal for a development per system which will boused for issuing development per mils for dwellings only in the Niagara Escarpment the parkway belt and the balanc of the rural area The local municipality would be responsible for Issuing per mlts In the rural areas within lis and region would handle the rest I think if you send out a notice with the assessment to tell pco they need a elopment permit before a building permit to do what they want I think you d have biggest turnout in the province Once you get through ihe discouragements for land use there very little left you can do Milton Coun Brad Clements said Mr also expressed concern over the rate of grow th
