Mr Smith explainedthe reasons - considered necessary as the use is quite definite, no desire to ;ter up a title, zoning will remove any need for pats, etc. The meeting adjourned for dinner from 12 noon to 1 P.M. COMBINED MEETING WITH COUNCIL All members of the Council met with the Commission dur ng the afternoon - still under the chairmanship of Mr. C Poole - for a full discussion of subdivision and building regulations, etc , for this Municipal District. A Development Control Resolution of the M D of Rocky View was read for information and Mr. Smith added detilils concerning it. They are aiming at minimum 40 acre subdivisions now but are also considering 5 Acre subdivisions in selected areas. Mr Smith also advised that the C. R. P. C. has made a study of country residential development and the report will be released soon Lengthy discussion followed in regard to subdivision regL.lations, building and business controls, etc for this District Many and varied opinions were expressed but few definite decisions made; the following is intended to outline only the highlights of the discussion 1. In many ways desirable to let people have full freedom to tuy and sell any acreages for any purpose and thus avoid criticism for taking away certain rights BUT a. this would not give orderly development b. extra services would be required and the costs for the mair part would be added to general taxes C a new development might lower the value of adjacent property Or might even increase same d special controls may be needed for buffer areas around existing occupied dwellings e. perhaps the urban centres need protection from small acreages, etc , immediately adjacent thereto. Subdivision cases dealt with at the Comm meeting of Junel 22nd/67 were mentioned to give examples of what is occuIrring in this area and the effects of lack of guiding regt4ations Allowing only one subdivision per quarter would have some advantages - e.g. no demand for water and sewer or gnrb ge collection, less interference with neighbors, etc BUT iisadvantages include more mileage of roads to service, Brea er bus mileage, etc Special consideration might be give for selling existing farmsteads with or without the shel erbelts. Members at the meeting seemed agreed that the demand for country subdivisions would be greatly reduced IF all buildings were assessed and taxed .- but this requires a change in Provincial legislation and no one can forecast if ot when that will come. !The advantage of encouragoing new development only adja ent to good roads was also stressed.
