CARRIED
There was discussion regarding the M D intensive livestock
regulations and whether there is a need to revise the M D
setbacks for intensive operations.
Allen Toews and Grant Dafoe entered the meeting at this time -
9 15 A.M.- and discussed in detail with council their views on
set backs for intensive developments.
Mr Cunningham also entered the meeting
Mr Toews indicated an intensive chicken operation does not need
to be as far away from residences as other types of intensive
operations He felt 330 feet provided under the Minimum Distance
Separation Formula would be adequate as there is not as much
smell from a chicken operation.
However he did agree the prevailing winds could have a bearing
on the location of any barn and it is necessary to have good
management.
Most chicken barns now use positive forced ventilation and
chimneys to exhaust the stale air through the roof, and fans
bring fresh air into the barn through the walls
When the barns are cleaned the manure is normally spread on the
land right away.
He felt if the M D by - law required the manure to be spread
within one week it should not be a problem

else
Development Appeal Board - FUNCTUS OFFICIO - When the Board
has made a decision it is final and can not be changed
There is a small amount of leeway between making and writing
the decision. Cannot meet after the hearing has been
adjourned or change your minds . If this is done it opens
the matter up to a court of appeal challenge Meeting with
people after the decision has been made or changing your
decision undermines the public confidence
It is not illegal but not a good idea to have the M.P.C. sit

public confidence
It is illegal for the M.P.0 to participate in a D.A.B
