Beverly Nic~lson:
The policies that are in place in the
Township right now will allow a
conversion, subject to meeting several
criteria. The most important and in the
Township's best interest, we have to be
very careful that the septic systems are
appropriate and are working for year
round use. That is one of the main
criteria. The other is that the lot
have a minimum of 50 feet of lot
frontage and 11,000 square feet of lot
area. This lot has a 100 feet of lot
frontage and 13,530 square feet of lot
area. The policies also read that the
Septic approval must be received and
that would be the final thing necessary
to get approval for a conversion, if
everything else fits in place.

The Deputy Reeve, after inquiring and ascertaining that there
were no questions from those present, thanked those in attendance
for their participation and advised Council would consider all
matters before reaching a decision. He then advised those
present that if they wished to be notified of the passing of the
proposed By-Law, they should leave their name and address with
the Clerk.

Be it resolved that the Special Public Meeting of
Council, (Randsalu, Concession 11, Lot 148, Plan 1488)
now be adjourned @ 7:20 p.m.
