Lishman magic will come to life in Imax film "The Iron Ark" "Get back, no more pictures," seems to be what this life-like bear sculpture Is saying about Its new debut in mo- vies. Of course it was created by Bill Lishman. The Imax, 3-dimensional camera system is a complex plece of equipment for all of its $1 million price tag. Yet, in wild Bill's studio, It seemed to work best attached to the bucket of his backhoe. Scugog Mayor Howard Hall broke a tie vote Monday af- ternoon that could have long- range implications for rural severances. A property ownerin Ward 4 is seeking permission to sever a 100-acre parcel of land into into two 50-acre lots. David Wooley, who lives on Concession 5 bought the land two years ago, has built a house on it, and is now looking for per- mission to sever the parcel into two 50 acre lots. He told council Monday the land is designated agricultural in the Official Plan, but in actu- al fact it haslittleifany value as farmland. Agencies such as Ag and Food, the MNR and the Conser- vation Authority have ex- pressed no objection to the sev- erance application. However, the Regional Planning Department is op- posed. His application would carry much more weight ifit got the OK from the local council.

PORT PERRY STAR -- Tuesday, May 2, 1989 -- 43 Mayor breaks tie-vote allowing farm to be severed info two 50 acre parcels In arguing against the sev- erance application, councillor Yvonne Christie and Glenn Malcolm said the severance could create a precedent for any land zoned agriculture, even if itis not suitable for farming. Mayor Hall said the appli- cation is unique because the land has no real farming value and there are several other resi- dences in the immediate area on Concession b, Although the application has the support of a majority of local councillors, it still needs approval from the Region's Land Division Committee. ~ ASK THE EXPERTS!
