"The end product is an attempt to reflect the changing economic and social conditions. and how those changes will affect the region to morrow." Seems important, yes, hut it is also bureaucratic, "once-removed and theoretical" said Waterloo councillor Brian Turnbull. head of the region's planning eommittee, and because of this, he's not really surprised that the review hasn't sparked much interest from the public. In fact, Turnbull noted, only seven Kitchener-Waterloo residents even showed up at last week's public hearing held by the Region to hear response to the draft report of the new official plan review. "Although it does affect the ordi- nary person in some specific. in many cases it doesn't impact on their backyard so there's not much interest," said Tumbull. "I find planning extremely interesting. but I don't blame people for not taking an interest...“ can be pretty dull." Tumbull said that although there will be a number of similarities in the specifics of the old and new official plans, the new document that emerges from the review process will be vastly different in the approach it takes. Written in 1976. the original ofrr cial policies plan included "as many policies as possible, relating to social issues and economic issues, even if there was no Jurisdiction to tackle those issues," he explained. The new plan, he stressed, has taken a "feet-on-the ground approach," and will primarily address physical development. Thus, Tumbull said, "we've cut out a lot of stun." As well. he said, the revised plan will recognize the maturity of local governments to "deal with their own problems," in a way not acknowledged before.
