The project has been funded through a $210,000 contribution from the by Diane Pickett Just over a year ago Newcastle Council denied Wilhelm Ullrich permission to establish an abattoir on his property south of Tyrone. But a recent decision from the Ontario Municipal Board has overturned the Council resolution. In 1984, Mr. Ullrich applied to the Town for a rezoning to permit the construction of a small slaughterhouse, which he intended to run in conduction with a meat cutting cutting and meat smoking operation already already existing on his 74 acre rural property. However, his plans met with fierce opposition from neighbours. These people feared loss of property property value with the proximity of the abattoir to their residential lots. They were afraid of obnoxious odours and contamination of the water table, and appeared before the Town Council to voice their objections. objections. In Mr. Ullrich's support, the Federation Federation of Agriculture and many local farmers argued the need for a local slaughterhouse and stated that it was a normal part of farming operations. Council denied Mr. Ullrich's rezoning rezoning application by a 4 to 3 vote. So, Mr. Ullrich appealed to the Ontario Ontario Municipal Board. The objectors, the farmers, representatives representatives from the Ministry of Agriculture, Agriculture, Town and Regional plan ners, and Mr. Ullrich himself appeared appeared at the O.M.B. appeal hearing hearing this autumn. The evidence presented convinced convinced G. M. Hobart to deliver the following decision on October 28th: "The evidence is clear that the abattoir as proposed by Mr. Ullrich is a farm related use. It is located in an agricultural area surrounded by homes that under present day regulations would not be permitted in this prime agricultural land area." "The Board is satisfied that noxious noxious odours would not emanate from the proposed abattoir and that the use would be compatible with a surrounding surrounding agricultural area. The Board is also satisfied that there is a need for such a use in this particular particular area and it would be a benefit to the farming community in and around the Town of Newcastle." A number of conditions on the abattoir were imposed by the Board, including a size restriction to 1,800 square feet and the refrigeration refrigeration of the offal room. Mr. Ullrich anticipates processing processing an average 15 to 20 animals a week once his new business gets underway. underway. At the November 4th Council meeting the report containing the O.M.B. decision was received for information information and Town staff will comply comply with the Board's request that they submit the necessary by-law for approval.
