TAKE NOTICE that the Council for The Corporation of the Municipality of Powassan has received a complete application under Sections 34 and 36 of the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, c.P. 13 as amended, to inform the public of a proposed Zoning By-law Amendment.


The public meeting is being held for the application described below to enable interested members of the public to understand and comment on a proposed Zoning By-law Amendment.

DATE AND LOCATION OF PUBLIC MEETING
File #: 2024-01
Date: Tuesday, June 4, 2024
Time: 6:00 pm
Location: Municipality of Powassan – 252 Clark Street (Fire Station)


DETAILS OF THE ZONING BY-LAW AMENDMENT
The purpose and effect of the proposed Zoning By-Law Amendment is to amend the Restricted Area (Zoning) By-Law No. 2003-38, as amended, for the lands described as Concession 13, Part Lot 15 (Himsworth), LT23897 (Civic Address: 146 Osborne Street, Powassan), in the Municipality of Powassan.

The application, if approved, would remove the Holding (-H) symbol from the subject lands. The Holding (-H) symbol was applied as part of a previous amendment to the Zoning By-law (By-law 2016-39) to rezone the subject lands Multiple Residential (RM). The Holding (-H) symbol shall be removed once Council is provided: i) A site plan agreement prepared by the Municipality and signed by the Owner; ii) Any security required by the site plan agreement; and, iii) Municipal costs incurred in the review and preparation of items a) and b) have been reimbursed to the Municipality.

On November 28th, 2022, Bill 23, More Homes Built Faster Act, 2022 was passed by the province and received Royal Assent. The Bill made extensive changes to several Acts and regulations. One of the changes has eliminated the need for site plan agreements for buildings on a property containing no more than ten residential units. In the case of the subject property, a building containing six residential units is proposed, and a site plan agreement cannot be approved to lift the Holding (-H) symbol. Building permits cannot be issued with the Hold in place.


ADDITIONAL INFORMATION AND MAP OF LAND SUBJECT TO THE APPLICATION
A key map showing the land to which the proposed amendment applies is provided with this notice. The purpose of this meeting is to ensure that sufficient information is made available to enable the public to generally understand the applicant’s proposed Zoning By-law Amendment.
