No Rockwood build permits without OK from trustees No sooner had Eramosa township council passed a resolution Monday making it mandatory that applications for building permits in be submitted to village trustees before granting a building permit than one dissatisfied resident rose to protest The resolution was passed on the request of the village trustees who through chairman Don Hilts stated they were disheartened by the way zoning by laws were being flouted in the village They felt if the trustee board could see official plans for building in the village before a permit was issued irregularities could be detected building commenced No power But McLaren a Main St Rockwood resident appearing at the township council asking them to bend zoning by lawssohe could replace his present workshop with a new cement block building took exception to the resolution He charged village trustees had no power over township zoning by laws and it would be useless to refer building plans to them Mr McLaren said he could replace his present buildinj described as a wall by wail and thus circumvent the by ending up with a workshop the same size as he has now But he complained if he observes all the by laws pulls down the present building he will be confined to constructing a much smaller building which won t suit his purposes Mr McLaren workshop is adjacent to the village post office Advised he should comply with the zoning by law Mr told council to forget the whole thing since building anything required consulting so many people it was out of hand By law flouted Earlier village trustee chairman Hilts told council the township zoning by low were flouted and in order to control building in the village council would have to get tougher He said the trustee heard a suggestion at their last meeting to prosecute one resident who built on a single lot In Rockwood two lots are mandatory Township councillors it was reasonable to allow the trustee board to make recommendations but failed to see where they could grant further powers to the trustees Coundltor Ken Fair added that most builders were on th- up and up complying with by laws and it would create a lot more red tape if requests first had to go to trustees Warren Parkinson admitted some township by laws had been contravened but said council intended to get tougher the matter came to a vote however the resolution went through with the reeve casting the deciding vote Conform permit Joined by building inspector Joe later council heard Mr McLaren describe his situation insist it was a township matter not one for trustees Mr McLaren was told he could get a building permit with no trouble if ho conformed to the by laws Deputy reeve D told Mr McLaren the village trustee knows the village better than the township council and it would save a lot of headaches and time for council if the trustees made a recommendation first Mr McLaren said he t see how council could refuse to permit someone who would wreck an old fire trap and replace it with a new building much easier on the eye tin case of a duplex It is alleged has been turned into a was discussed and it was decided the owner had contravened the by la by a stairway inside to allow access for four families Reeve Warren Parkinson said the township had to stick to regulations A permit for a duplex hud been issued and until permission was granted it would remain a duplexnot a Mr said the owner told him he complied with the board of health but Councillor Dick Strong took exception law comes first and then the approval from the office It would be a mistake to let the health office over rule us he said The entire discussion was initiated early in the meeting when Jack Sargent another resident appeared at council with sketches for a variety store and two apartments he proposed on and 159 in the village He described the for council at their requcsl but they asked for more information before making a decision on the building the new resolution
