document but its function is relatively simple in theory it is a general plan of development and states in a general way what goes where in a given municipality it is broad look at what sorts of development council wants the lifetime of- an official plan is generally five years- by the end of that time sothe theory goesconditions and priorities have changed so as to make official plan revisions necessary i v the formertownship of wwtchurch had such an official plan which was approved in 1967 setting out certain areas of industrial v and residential- development it is worth noting that the official plan designates certain tilings but a zoning bylaw isneeded to define thedesighationsmore fully an official plan may also be amended usually complicated biit the process isv i recently gormley a whitchurch- realtors broughfforward a proposal to put ran industrial subdivision at ihe coiner of the gormley rd arid don mills the land iszoned rural but with changing ipatternscf development- the area around that corner ha become a good spot for light in- jdustrial development of some kind but the present council is in a bind to do anything j about that it cannot create new industrial lots i when there are quite a few already designated in other areas of the town many of those lots have been proven to be unsuitable for in- vj dus trial development lots incedar valley have been rejected by the ontario municipal board and certain iland in ballantrae which has drawn op- position from local residents thus they ap- pear on the official plan but will likely not be -developed- s r8 y meanwhile property on don mills remains vacant growing only weeds- but there are other problems with- the official plan for instance private clubs are a permitted use in the agricultural designation f under the definitions set down in the plan the definition of a private club is so general that it manages to permit such things as- trailer parks and payformembership clubs two requests recently for private clubs show that council has no control over the development because most of these are zoned agricultural as far as the zoninggoes these clubs are perfectly alright v well this is 1975 and still no sign of the revised and combined official plan at an a i-kit- present parts of threeofficial plans are being jtfr sugar- and spige fenforceda consolidated plan for the
