The Clerk responded by indicating that one letter had been received from the Nottawasaga Valley Conservation Authority, stating that they had no objection. The Reeve then stated that those persons present would be afforded the opportunity of asking questions with respect to the proposed Amendment. He then turned the meeting over to the Township Planner Ms. Kris Menzies, to explain the purpose and effect of the proposed Amendment. Kris Menzies: This is a Township initiated by-law. To date, the by-law states a requirement that if on one of your interior side yards you do not have on your building, a carport which is attached or a garage which is attached, that interior side yard measurement must change from three (3) metres, which is the requirement for the primar structure, to six (6) metres, if there is no attached carport or garage. This by-law will essentially take out that requirement of the zoning by-law, in the General Residential Zone and allow you to construct a structure which is three (3) metres away from the interior side yard as the main structure isn't currently required in the by-law. .' , ,Þ 1 - 2 - There being no questions or comments, the Reeve in closing the meeting, thanked those in attendance for their participation and advised that Council would consider all matters before reaching a decision.
