The Purpose of the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment is to establish site-specific zoning provisions to facilitate a proposed future Consent application to create two residential lots for single detached dwellings. 

The Effect of the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment is:

1. To rezone a portion of the subject property from Residential First Density (R1) to a Residential First Density Exception XX (R1-XX) Zone to establish site-specific provisions to permit a reduction of the required minimum lot area from 1,400 square metres to 873 square meters and a reduction of the required minimum lot frontage from 20 metres to 13 metres for a single detached dwelling; and 
2. To rezone a portion of the subject property from Residential First Density (R1) to a Residential First Density Exception XX (R1-XX) Zone to establish site-specific provisions to permit a reduction of the required minimum lot area from 1,400 square metres to 867 square meters and a reduction of the required minimum lot frontage from 20 metres to 12.91 metres for a single detached dwelling. 

Any person may attend the public meeting and/or make written or verbal representation either in support of or in opposition to the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment. 

If a person or public body would otherwise have the ability to appeal the decision of the Council of the Town of Collingwood to the Ontario Land Tribunal but the person or public body does not make oral submissions at the public meeting or make written submissions to the Town of Collingwood before the Zoning By-law Amendment is passed or refused, the person or public body is not entitled to appeal the decision. 

If a person or a public body does not make oral submissions at the public meeting, or make written submissions to the Town of Collingwood before the Zoning By-law Amendment is passed or refused, the person or public body may not be added as a party to the hearing of an appeal before the Ontario Land Tribunal unless, in the opinion of the Tribunal, there are reasonable grounds to do so. 

Please note that the rights of third parties to appeal Zoning By-law Amendment decisions to the Ontario Land Tribunal have been restricted under the Planning Act.
