COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATIONS AS AMENDED
That
Council approve:
1. The amendments recommended in Column 3 of Document 1, to
correct anomalies in Zoning By-law 2008-250;
2. That a new Row 18 be added to Document 1 as follows:
a. Column 1: 123 Coveredbridge
Column 2: This
existing vacant lot in the subdivision was assigned exception 13r to reduce the
lot area, however it is a
large lot which meets the minimum lot area requirements of the
RR3 subzone and therefore does not need the reduction contained in exception
13r. However, the lot width is smaller than the standard 60 metre minimum lot
width requirement of the RR3 subzone, and therefore should have been assigned
exception 177r which reduces minimum lot width to 40 metres.
Column 3: Amend
the Zoning Map, to rezone the subject lands, as shown on Document 2, from RR3[13r] to RR3[177r].
b. Add the attached Zoning Map to
Document 2, and;
c. That
there be no further notice pursuant to Section 34 (17) of the Planning Act.
3. That Item 17 of Document 2, relating to 4497 O’Keefe
Court, be deferred to the next Agriculture and Rural
Affairs Committee meeting dealing with the correction of anomalies to By-Law
2008-250.
