Providing this background will ultimately provide a greater understanding of the need and requirements of an attainable housing definition and the time frame within which the recommendations should be implemented. Community of Centre Wellington The Township of Centre Wellington was created in 1999 through amalgamation of Fergus, Elora, the Townships of Nichol, Pilkington, West Garafraxa, and part of Eramosa. The Township is part of the upper-tier municipality, the County of Wellington. Fergus and Elora are considered the main urban centres of the Township. The built form that exists today dates from the early 1800s. Centre Wellington residents are employed in many industries. The top 3 include: sales and services; trades, transport and equipment operators and related occupations; and business, finance, and administrative occupations (StatsCan, 2016). The unemployment rate in the Township was measured at 3.8 percent in the 2016 census, which was well below the provincial average of 7.4 percent. The Township is also well known for its natural and cultural heritage, which draws a substantial number of tourists. Elora is home to the Elora Gorge Conservation Area and the Elora Quarry, which offer tourists and residents opportunities for outdoor recreation. Additionally, Elora hosts Riverfest, a three-day music and arts festival, which demonstrates the Village’s dedication to celebrating art and culture. Fergus also has its annual festival, the Highland Games, an internationally renowned Scottish Festival which celebrates the Town’s heritage. Governance Model The Township of Centre Wellington consists of 6 wards, each with its own elected councillor. The Mayor is elected to sit on the Township’s council and serves as the representative for Centre Wellington on the County of Wellington Council. Currently, Mayor Kelly Linton serves as both the Mayor of Centre Wellington and the Warden of the County of Wellington (head of the Council). Planning and Policy Several layers inform the Township of Centre Wellington’s planning policy framework of provincial, county and municipal policies. This section will provide a high-level overview of the policies that affect housing development within Centre Wellington. While numerous policies may apply when making planning decisions, the scope of this report is limited specifically to those addressing housing issues and policies. ATTAINABLE HOUSING: TOWNSHIP OF CENTRE 3 WELLINGTON Attainable Housing Strategy Background Research Paper The Provincial Policy Statement (2020) The Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) provides policy direction for municipalities regarding matters of provincial interest. It provides many individual policies and is to be read in its entirety. However, this paper will focus solely on the housing policy directives pertaining specifically to housing supply and affordability. Section 1.4 of the PPS outlines provincial policy as it relates to housing. This directive includes advocating for intensification, providing a mix of housing options and densities, and establishing development standards to minimize development costs. The Township of Centre Wellington’s municipal policies must be consistent with the PPS. Further, the PPS states that planning authorities are encouraged to permit and facilitate a range and mix of housing options and densities, including new development as well as residential infill, to respond to current and future needs. Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe (2020) Centre Wellington is located within the geographic region known as the Greater Golden Horseshoe. This region is destined for significant growth over the next 30 years, and as such, the Province has developed the Growth Plan to direct that growth to some urban regions. The Growth Plan outlines policies regarding intensification, directing municipalities like Centre Wellington to determine Minimum Density Targets (MDTs), which they need to achieve in a given timeline. Additionally, section 2.2.6 outlines policies about housing, such as encouraging a mix of housing, including affordable housing, establishing targets for affordable ownership housing and rental housing, and supporting the use of planning tools to require multi- residential unit developments to vary in unit size to accommodate diverse household sizes and incomes. Centre Wellington’s Official Plan must conform to the policies of the Growth Plan. Wellington County Official Plan As Centre Wellington is part of Wellington County, it takes direction from the County’s plans and policies. The County of Wellington’s Official Plan encourages residential intensification in urban areas, including providing a mix of housing types, adding housing above commercial uses, redevelopment of brownfields and grey fields, and encouraging small-scale intensification, including accessory residences (4.4.3). Section 4.4.5 of the County’s Official Plan sets an approach for affordable housing. It is from these goals that the County completed its Attainable Housing Strategy (2019). The Township of Centre Wellington is now responsible for implementing components of the strategy at the local level Centre Wellington Official Plan Centre Wellington’s Official Plan outlines land use policies within the Township. It provides land use designations for land within the urban centres of Fergus and Elora and settlement areas within the Township. The County of Wellington Official Plan

  • History of Erin Township
    History of Erin Township History of Erin Township Name Erin Township is said to have been so named by the surveyors, because it was surveyed immediately after the Townships of Albion and Caledon. Albion suggested England, Caledon suggested Scotland, and it was thought fitting that the third should suggest Ireland; so they called it Erin, the poetic name for Ireland. Survey The survey of the Southern part of Erin Township started in 1819, by Deputy Surveyor Charles Kennedy of Esquesing Township, and Donald Black of Eramosa Twp. Starting at the east side, they continued across to the Eramosa boundary, as far as 17 sideroad, leaving a gore at the Eramosa side. In 1820, the northern part of the township was surveyed. The 1906 Atlas names O'Reilly as one of the surveyors, but the History of Erin Township in 1967, states that Donald Black and John Burt continued the survey above 17 sideroad. But instead of beginning at the Caledon side, they started at the Eramosa side, ending up with a gore along the Caledon boundary. This accounts for the jog in the lines at 17 sideroad. J.W. Burt had the instruments used by his father and Mr. Kennedy in the survey, and in 1956, Goldwin Burt presented these instruments to Wellington County Museum at Elora. When the surveyors finished their arduous work, they were offered land in the newly-surveyed Township as their pay, or part of it; but not being favourably impressed with the wilderness, they refused to accept it. Mr. Kennedy was offered 1,000 acres, beginning at lot 14, on each side of the 9th line, to lot 17 inclusive; but in his refusal, he reported the land to be of little value.
