Council met to discuss their Official Plan and whether or not to proceed with an
amendment before restructuring. After discussion, Council decided to proceed
with an amendment which would deal with a Severance Policy for the Rural and
Agricultural District, new policies for the Minor Corrmunities, a change to the
goals and objectives. Council also felt they would proceed with the preparation
of a Strategic Plan.
Council discussed the severance policy. It was decided to use the same policy
for the Rural and Agricultural Designation. Eligibility would be based on
having a holding of 90 acres in 1980 and that only one severance would be
permitted from that holding. The Policy would use most of the existing
limitations as listed in the Official Plan but also require a separation between
homes and a separation from Environmental areas.
The Council also looked at the Policy for Minor Corrmunities. They decided to
limit the minor corrmunities to those of Prices Corners, Jarratt, Vasey and
Craighurst. They felt the boundaries should be established as what presently
exists and that new growth would be by plan of subdivision.
Council began discussing the proposed goals and objectives. They did not
finalize this and decided to meet again to discuss this.
