This amendment would rezone the land from the Agricultural (A) and Inherent Hazard Land (OS2) to Institutional (I) and Inherent Hazard Land (OS2) to allow for the future expansion of a cemetery. To date, the Council of the Corporation of the Township of Oro- Medonte have not made a decision on this application, other than proceeding to this Public Meeting. Only after comments are received from the Public, requested agencies and Township Staff, within the appropriate time period, will Council make a decision on this application. Notice of the Public Meeting was mailed out on October 17, 1996 to all property owners within 400 feet of the subject lands. The Clerk indicated there had been no correspondence received on this matter. The Clerk then stated that those persons present would be afforded the opportunity of asking questions with respect to the proposed Amendment. She then turned the meeting over to the Development Co-ordinator, Mrs. Andria Leigh, to explain the purpose and effect of the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment.

The subject property is located at the north west corner of Line 6 South and County Road 20 (Ridge Road) . The portion to be rezoned is highlighted in red (shown on the map).
