TOWNSHIP OF ORO
OFFICIAL PLAN AMENDMENT NO. 76
TO THE OFFICIAL PLAN OF THE
..,
TOWNSHIP OF ORO AS ADMINISTERED BY
THE TOWNSHIP OF ORO-MEDONTE
PART A - THE PREAMBLE
1 . Purpose
The purpose of this Amendment is to change the Official
Plan designation from "pits and Quarries and Rural" to the
"Rural".
2. Location
The lands affected by this amendment are described as West
Half of Lot 6, Concession 4, former Township of Oro, County
of Simcoe, on the Bass Lake Side Road east of County Road
57.
3. Basis of Amendment
The effect of this amendment is to redesignate a portion of
the lands from the "pits and Quarries" designation to the
"Rural" designation.
The lands to be redesignated are approximately 30 acres in
area. A site inspection was conducted by the Ministry of
Natural Resources in April 1990 and determined that the
property had been designated and mapped incorrectly as there
was little potential for aggregate on the subject property;
and, therefore, the information provided by the Ministry for
the Municipality's general mapping was also incorrect and
was required to be amended.
The use proposed for this property would be a large Rural
use.
-t
PART B - THE AMENDMENT
All of this part of the document entitled Part B - The Amendment,
consisting of the following text, constitutes Amendment No. 76 to
the Official Plan of the Township of Oro.
DETAILS OF THE AMENDMENT
1. That Schedule E Map "2", Land Use Plan to the Official Plan
of the Township of Oro, is hereby amended by redesignating the.
area as shown on Schedule "A", attached hereto from "Pits and
Quarries" to Rural".

Township of Oro-Medonte
Your file 1301
Dear Mr. Stagg:
Mr. Williams, our District Manager has asked me to respond to the
letter you have sent regarding the above mentioned property.
As you may be aware, Mr. William Fitzgerald held the position of
District Geologist at the time the request was made
to have the aggregate designation removed from this property. As
a qualified professional, Mr. Fitzgerald's assessment of the
property having no potential for aggregate resources is valid.
Whether this opinion applies to adjoining properties is not
known, although a review of the Aggregate Resource Inventory
Report for Oro Township has the area to the west of this site
mapped as a selected sand and gravel resource area of primary
significance. It would appear that the subject lands is on the
very edge of the deposit thereby making the possibility of
significant resources unlikely.
Unfortunately, additional mapping or testing of aggregate
deposits has not been conducted in this area since the ARIP
reports were published. It is our usual procedure that if
someone would like to change the designation, they are required
to provide a report to the effect that aggregate resources are
not present on the site. This is a service we no longer provide.

Mr. stagg
It is our position, that with the information currently
available, a general correction of the off~cial plan and zoning
by-law would not be possible unless supported by a comprehensive
geological assessment.
Should you have any further questions, or if we can be of further
assistance, please contact Craig Laing, Aggregate Resources
Officer at this office.
