Public Meeting for a Zoning By-law Amendment

Public Meeting for a Zoning By-law Amendment in accordance with Section 34 of the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, as amended.

Monday, February 10, 2020 at 5:30 PM - Town Hall Council Chambers

What is this?

An application to amend the Zoning By-law was received for the property known locally as 695 Quaker Road.

 The applicant seeks approval to rezone Part 1 from ‘R1’ (Residential 1) to a site-specific ‘R2’ (Residential 2) zone and Part 2 to a site-specific ‘RM1-281 {H}’ (Residential Multiple 1 – 281 with a {Holding} provision). The existing dwelling on Part 1 is proposed to remain.

The requested {Holding} provision is associated with the requirement for the land owner to obtain Ministry clearance for the potential discovery of archaeological resources.

Part 2 of the subject lands are currently subject to a severance application (file B1/2020P) that would convey a boundary adjustment merging Part 2 with the abutting lands to the south for future residential townhouse development. The future development of Part 2 will be subject to additional Planning Act applications such as Site Plan Approval, Draft Plan of Subdivision and / or Draft Plan of Condominium approval, depending on the nature of development. No formal plans on Part 2 have been submitted to date.

Your input is encouraged! We are listening!
