  • Introductionntroduction
    CCHAPTERHAPTER 1:1: IINTRODUCTIONNTRODUCTION In This Chapter: Historical Setting - History & Memories Location in the County & Region - Location & Description, Municipal Boundaries Regional Influences on the Township - Accessibility, Urban Development, Transportation, Recreation and Cultural Facilities PORT HURON TOWNSHIP MASTER PLAN INTRODUCTION The information presented here is a combination of input from citizens and elected and appointed officials, as well as Township Planning Commission members and staff, along with the assistance and guidance of the St. Clair County Planning Commission. It contains statistical data and information, both past and present, that can give some insight for our future. While we cannot definitively project future development, we can try to help determine efficient and effective ways of managing and shaping the way our Township develops. In concert with that thought, this plan also includes a chapter on a Vision for the Township which includes both goals and objectives. This can help us focus on what we would like development to look like when it comes, and to give direction to developers on the expectations we have as a community. Knowing that these goals and objectives have been developed by our citizens gives them guidance as to what is desirable and marketable to our residents and therefore profitable to them. While many master plans contain an overwhelming amount of statistical information, we hope to provide a fair amount of usable information in the form of maps, charts and tables that demonstrate logical and historical reasons and trends for what has taken place in the Township and how we can benefit from that in our future.

  • Stanley Township
    Municipal Inventory of Cultural Heritage Properties - Stanley Township Inventory of Designated and Potential Heritage Properties Municipality of Bluewater, Ontario (Comprised of the former Geographical Townships of Hay and Stanley and the villages of Bayfield, Hensall and Zurich) Written by Jodi Jerome for the Bluewater Heritage Committee, 2014 Introduction When the Municipality of Bluewater amalgamated the townships and hamlets of Hay and Stanley and the villages of Bayfield, Hensall and Zurich in 2001, the result was a municipality rich in built heritage, culture and tradition. The Bluewater Heritage Committee has enlarged the work started by the earlier Bayfield Local Architectural Conservation Advisory Committee (LACAC) and the Bayfield Historical Society. The plaquing program that began with the Bayfield LACAC has been continued by the Bluewater Heritage Committee, who have enlarged the original plaquing program recognizing, not designating, sites of significance throughout the municipality. At present, there are no properties in the Stanley Township area of the Municipality of Bluewater that have been designated. There are century farms recognized by the Junior Farmers and properties recognized by historical plaques from the Bluewater Heritage Committee, which relies on members of the public volunteering their home and/or farm for a plaque and splitting the cost for the plaque. Bluewater Heritage Committee Goals: -expand the recognition of potential heritage resources within the municipality -locate and publicly recognize the rich
