Mayor Beard called the meeting to order and advised that all persons present
would be afforded the opportunity of asking questions in respect to this proposed
amendment to the Zoning By-law with regard to Concession 6, Part of Lot 26
(Oro), Christopher lies.
It was noted that there had been no correspondence received by the Township
in this regard.
Ms. Andria Leigh, Township Planner, provided information as to the purpose and
effect of this proposed amendment to rezone the lands described as Concession
6, West Part of Lot 26 (formerly within the Township of Oro). The subject lands
are proposed to be rezoned from the Agricultural/Rural (A/RU) Zone to the
General Commercial (GC) Zone to permit the use of a repair garage in an
accessory building.
.
Mr. Gene Zaraska expressed his concerns that an auto body shop/repair garage
was not the type of business to be situated in this retirement area. The subject
property has several cars already sitting waiting for work to be done, and this is
unsightly.
Mr. lies presented photographs of what the building on the subject property used
to look like as it sat as a burned out shell, as well as pictures of what the building
looks like now. He commented that he has done everything to improve the
subject property from its previous condition.
There being no further questions and/or comments from the audience, this public
meeting adjourned at 7:15 p.m.
A tape of the meeting is available for review at the Township Administration
Centre, Line 7 South.
