Zoning By-law Amendment – Z-2024-054 (Rae)

The purpose of the application was to rezone the lands from Highway Commercial (HC) to Highway Commercial Special (HC-35) with special provisions. The rezoning would recognize a reduced rear yard setback, increased exterior side yard setback, reduced landscaped open space located in the front yard, and reduced parking setback from the street, where Concession 6 shall be considered the front lot line. The rezoning would also identify that certain provisions relating to Accessory Dwelling Units in the Highway Commercial Special (HC-35) do not apply. If approved, the effect of the proposed amendments will facilitate the development of a three-storey, 16 residential unit and commercial mixed-use building on the subject lands

This was deferred.

Local Official Plan Amendment - L-2023-013 and Zoning By-law Amendment Z-2023-050 (Patel)

The purpose of the application was to amend the Town's Official Plan and the Zoning By-law to add site-specific provisions to the Highway Commercial designation and ‘Highway Commercial (HC)’ zone. The amendments would facilitate a mixed commercial and high-density residential building on the subject lands. The proposed five storey building would consist of a ground floor commercial unit and 27 accessory apartment units on the upper floors.

This was carried.
