Reeve Robert E. Drury opened the meeting by explaining to those present that this Public Meeting has been called pursuant to Section 34 (12) of the Planning Act, to obtain public comments with respect to the proposed application. The applicant has applied to rezone lands, described as Part Lot 25, Concession 10, Part 1 of 51R9772, in the Township of Oro. To date, the Council of the Corporation of the Township of Oro not made a decision on this application, other than proceeding to a Public Meeting. Only after comments are received from the Public, Township Staff and requested Agencies within an appropriate time period, will Council make a decision on this application. Notice of the Public Meeting was mailed out on February 7, 1990, to all property owners within 400 feet of the subject lands. The Reeve then asked the Clerk if there had been any correspondence received on this matter. The Township Planner responded by indicating that correspondence had been received the Simcoe County District Health Unit, giving approval for the septic system and well. The Reeve then stated that those persons present would be the opportunity of asking questions with respect to the proposed Zoning By-Law Amendment. Reeve Robert E. Drury then turned the meeting over to the Planner, Ms. Beverly Nicolson, who explained the purpose and effect of the proposed Official Plan and zoning By-Law Amendment. Beverly Nicolson: This application is for Part of Lot 25, Concession 10, and also known as Part 1 a Reference Plan. The application is for a conversion rezoning which changes the permitted uses on the land from a dwelling in the shoreline residential to a permanent use on the property and that will be to a general residential zone. , " , ," - 2 - Beverly Nicolson: The criteria that has been established by the Township and the policies to allow these conversions, require that the lots have a minimum lot frontage, lot area and Health Unit approval. The minimum lot frontage requirement is 50 feet and the area requirement is 11,000 square feet. This particular property has 100 feet of lot frontage and 17,000 square feet of lot area, so they are within the requirements. Further, we have received a comment from the Health Unit that they had approved the septic system in 1987. The effect of this proposal tonight, will be to change the zoning on the property from shoreline residential to general residential and to permit permanent residential use. The Reeve, after inquiring and ascertaining that there were no questions from those present, thanked those in attendance for their participation and advised Council would consider all before reaching a decision. He also advised those present that if they wished to be notified of the passing of the proposed By-Law, they should leave their name and address with the Clerk.
