all property owners within 120 metres of the subject lands.

correspondence received on this matter. The Clerk responded by
indicating that one letter had been received from the Simcoe
District Health unit indicating they were not opposed.
The Reeve then stated that those persons present would be afforded

Amendment. He then turned the meeting over to the Township
