I 8 8 ;, - 2 - Kris Menzies Thank you, Mr. Mayor. The Mayor has identified the property as located on Lot 24, Plan 863, Concession 10 in the former Township of Oro. The purpose of tonight's Public Meeting is to allow Council to hear any public comment on the application prior to making a decision. The rezoning is from the Shoreline Residential Zone to the General Residential Zone. The intent of the rezoning is to permit a Conversion so a single family dwelling unit of seasonal occupancy which is currently permitted now under the Shoreline Residential zoning will be converted, if the proposal is approved by Council, to a single family dwelling unit of year-round occupancy. There are several criteria in the Oro Official Plan which must be adhered to prior to the Planning Department making favourable recommendation to Council. Those are my comments, Mr. Mayor. Mayor Beard Thank you, Kris. Are there any questions or comments from Council on this matter? Any questions or comments from the members of the public? A second time, any questions or comments on this matter? For a third and final time, any questions or comments? Hearing none.
