Mr. Reisch spoke on behalf of the Shanty Bay Ratepayers voicing concern with respect to this proposed development. It was urged that the Township Council adhere to the policies and intent of the new Official Plan to which the proposal does not conform. Mr. Reisch also expressed concern regarding the threat of annexation to Barrie should this development take place. He cautioned Council citing the decision of the Ontario Municipal Board during annexation hearings that Oro Council be aware that allowing further fringe development would only be inviting a further annexation.
