Mun. Planning Comm Member - Mr. Don Dau only)
M D Sec - Treas. Mr. G. G. King
Calgary Regional Planning Comm • Director A. R. Smith in
forenoon only, Mr Peter Marriott -from app 10 A M
Mr Schmelke moved that Mr Dau act as Chairman for
the discussion of the business to be brought before this
meeting Carried
It was noted that there was not a quorum of either the
Council or the local Planning Comm., but it was agreed to
proceed with a general discussion and such motions as
deemed necessary
The proposed Preliminary Regional Plan and related
matters were discussed at length Mr. Smith first gave
a reume of the procedure in drafting the Plan, stating
that it was done by a comm with two representatives
each from the Rural Municipalities and four members. from
the Towns and Villages, plus one from Calgary, each
Municipality represented had one vote only The 1963 Plaa
had been used as a guide only Reference was made to the
requirements of the Prov Planning Act and amendments
which may be made to it this year
Mr Smith advised that the Plan is designed, among
other things; ' )
1 To allow certain densities only
2 To restrict land uses, etc., by zoning
3 That subdivision matters be largely controlled
through advance zoning
4. That industry and /or high density farming be
also controlled by zoning
Mr. Smith stated that zoning authority would rest
wholly with the local Council. However, in reply to a
question he agreed that the zoning must conform to all
terms of the Plan and, if within close vicinity to a Town
or other Urban area, that the Urban area must also be
consulted
The Plan calls for a minimum parcel size in a general
Agricultural zone of 40 acres, and almost all this M. D.
would be in thtt type of zone Existing farmsteads
could be accomodated
Mr. Smith was advised that our Council objects to
numerous features of the Plan including
1 Requirement that all commercial development,
except extractive industries, must be in Urban areas
2 The fact that Urban representatives have a
voting power greater than their re %onable share - as
per the Act - and thus wield too much influence in
voting on a Plan which basically affects the rural areas.
3 A Plan could be drawn for this M D much simpler
in form and content as we do not have the problems of
areas adjacent to Calgary

PLANNING
Considerable discussion took place on matters of
concern. Mr Smith stated that it would not be practical,
in his opinion, to have separate Plans for each M D

on the Plan, even though it only indirectly affects them
Matters of Town concern only are not included
The meeting adjourned for dinner from 12 15 P.M
