14 THE NEW TANNER THURSDAY, MAY 6, 2004 Planner to look at changes to subdivision Guelph/Eramosa council wants its planner to look at proposed changes to a ru- ral industrial subdivision on the Sixth Line of the former Eramosa Township. The change removes an in- ternal road pattern and reduces the number of pro- posed lots to three, all fronting on the Sixth Line. Council was told the de- veloper has purchased the abutting Whitside property and will create an access off Highway 7 to the sec- ond phase of his development plan. This re- moves the potential to landlock property behind the first three lots. The developer promised to honour buffering condi- tions worked out with neighbouring. landowners concerned how the new neighbours might interfere with their horse farm. Councillors were also concerned about water from the three lots draining back onto the farm even though that is its present pattern.

Burial costs to increase The cost of burials in Rock- wood Cemetery will rise agairi this year. Woodlawn Cemetery gen- eral manager Paul Taylor told Guelph/Eramosa council Mon- day Rockwood Cemetery is still operating at a deficit, but it can become self-sufficient once its care and maintenance trust fund is at an adequate level. ' In order to build up the fund, Taylor has asked council to approve a $25 increase for burial plots and a $35 increase in the fee to open an adult size grave. Gave sites will now cost $975 each, with $390 of that sum going into the cemetery's perpetual care trust fund. Buri- als will now cost $610 for an adult and $275 for opening a child's grave up to five feet in length. Cremation plots will increase by $60 to $450. The municipality has an agreement with Guelph's Woodlawn Cemetery to oper- ate the Rockwood. Cemetery and manage its perpetual care fund. ;
