Tbe Canadien Champion, Wed., Auguat 25, 1976 13 ~IiampiouoEdkdep Dan gerous precedent Hilton Council bas set a dangerous precadent in approviag a project wbicb did not clesrly meet tbe town's own zoning regela- tions for tbe particular site. Council membera approved construction of a building for a use tbat conflictu witii a clarifying by- law approved by tbe same courcil juet last year. As far as we cao gatiser a meeting neas beld between a repre- sestative of a commercial firsa, tbe mayor and tbe planning directar. Thse represantative then procaeded ta purcbaee land on Steeles Ave. opposite Oakville Autamotive and make plans ta arect a building. It neas some time after tbat wben a building permit was sougbt, tbat Building Inspector Ray Weido ba- came concemned about a by-law Ibat probibited retail uses gi the tend zoned for industry. He sane "large grey areas" and refused the permit untit councit coneidered tbe project. At tbe council meeting Clark Jack McGeacbie ctearly eeid tbe project was la contravention of thse town by-taw. Ha euggested any 'grey ares" wes remnoved lest year wben counicil tigbtened up the permitted uses in thse induetrial zone ta preveat retail uses la tbat Tbe project le a "Do-it-yourself centre" and permitted uses in tbe zone are a buildere' euppty, a tradesman shop, a wbote'sale outiet, a service sbop, a mark ebop or a marebouse. The cterk pointed ouf tbe operation contemplated is primarily a ratail one and is flot ac- commodated witbin tbe exlating by-law. He suggeated a rezoning would be raqwired to Iegally clear the way for the project. During tbe debate thse Mayor acknowledged "I did something 1 shouldn't bave, 1 gueaa", but coulncil supported thea action and autborized it to proceed. Last year council's action was ta fortify tbe intent ta keep retail uas out of induatrial areas. Counefils action bas now been ta draw thse whole by-law into question. 'The Planning Director R.J.L. Zaandanyi told the zoning adminia- trator tbe project *basically con- forma witb the zoning by-law even tbougb tbe type of operation possesses retail-commercial facets inberent inalits design." ta an explaaatory note witb tbe by-law approved st year it was stated: "In an endeavour ta lisait tbe establisbment of future retail uses ta only tbe commercially designated areas, as opposed ta baving large retail areas created witbin tbe industrial zones, thse Town proposes ta delete tbe pro- vision in By-law 31-69 tbat would shlow tbe creation of future retail fluer ares, witbin tbe industrial zones as an accessory use ta one of tbe otber permitted uses ia tbat ares."1 If would appear thse council bas supported tbe mayor in broadening thse terme 0f tbe municipality's zoning by-law. In doing so, a dangerous precedent bas been establisbed.
