FARMERS LOSE OUT Ontario Treasurer John White said Wednesday the province does not intend to compensate farmers whose lands drop in value because of proposed land-use legislation. Gordon Hill, president of the Ontario Federation of Agri- culture, told Mr. White there should be compensation when farmers are forbidden to develop their land by provin- cial regulations designating it for agricultural use only. Mr. White replied that any designation was equivalent to municipal zoning regulations. He said later that courts traditionally have considered present use in establishing value, 'even though a guy may have hoped to put a 50-storey building on his lot." The encounter between Mr. Hill and Mr. White came during a meeting of the legislature committee exa- mining Mr. White's bills to plan land use in the provinie.
