He also noted food from the farm would be donated to The Table Soup Kitchen Foundation and spoke of the importance of a local and reliable food source, particularly as the cost of food increases as it has during this pandemic.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I do have an individual who has committed to working on the farm here and I\u2019ve designated her farm manager and she does need a place to stay. She is a person who herself experiences a physical disability and so within the plans of that, I have incorporated the accessibility into the plans of that house, and alongside she also would need someone to assist her in the operations of the farm. I\u2019m asking for a duplex so we can have individuals work on the farm and it would be at a reduced rate\u2026 I am not looking to make a profit. I\u2019m looking to cover the cost of the mortgage to build because my purpose is to provide a community resource,&#8221; he told the committee. &#8220;This property was a fully operational, functioning farm 20 years before I purchased it and so to bring it up to speed, and to bring it up to a place where I can provide for the larger community, we need to really work this land.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ellis&#8217;s neighbour and builder also spoke to the committee about his support for the project.<\/p>\n<p>Councillor Bob Stone wanted to know if the duplex would have separate access to the road and Councillor Jonathan Wiebe, who said he liked the application because &#8220;it shows a little more dynamic thinking than what we\u2019re used to,&#8221; also questioned what would happen if the property sold down the line. &#8220;How do we make sure that if you sell the property, let\u2019s say in 10 years, that we don\u2019t suddenly have a duplex Airbnb on our hands. That kind of is incongruent with what the intention was.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Planning manager Richard Clark said the exemption written into the bylaw would specifically state that the duplex would be for the use of the farmhands.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And thinking outside the box is not always easy for planners but what I liked about this is that it was for people employed on a farm and we do have policies that support agriculture in the rural area so that\u2019s why I felt, and staff felt, we\u2019d be able to throw our support behind it because we can restrict it to tenants that are employed by the farm so that\u2019s what we felt it had going for it, so I just wanted to point that out to make sure that was clear,&#8221; said Clark.<\/p>\n<p>Committee unanimously approved the application.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center;\">Don\u2019t miss out on Doppler!<\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Sign up <a href=\"https:\/\/doppleronline.ca\/huntsville\/dont-miss-out-on-doppler\/\"><u>here<\/u><\/a> to receive our email digest with links to our most recent stories.<br \/>\nLocal news in your inbox three times per week!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a style=\"background: #5cb85c url('https:\/\/d1iczxrky3cnb2.cloudfront.net\/red_logo.png') no-repeat 37px; color: #fff; text-decoration: none; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; display: inline-block; font-size: 16px; padding: 15px 38px; padding-left: 75px; -webkit-border-radius: 2px; -moz-border-radius: 2px; border-radius: 2px; box-shadow: 0 1px 0 0 #1f5a89; text-shadow: 0 1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3);\" href=\"https:\/\/donorbox.org\/support-huntsville-doppler\">Click here to support local news<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><broadstreet-zone zone-id=\"45657\" keywords=\"\" soft-keywords=\"true\" zone-alias=\"\"><\/broadstreet-zone>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The need for affordable housing, food production, support for those with disabilities, and employment seemed to sway Huntsville\u2019s planning committee at its April 14 meeting.
