of the Public Meeting was also placed in both the Barrie Examiner

correspondence received on this matter. The Clerk responded by
indicating that one letter had been received from the Nottawasaga

outside it's jurisdiction.

from the minimum front yard setback of 9
metres to 6 metres in order to accommodate
the adverse topography on the property;
and to provide a requirement for two
parking spaces for vehicles, exterior to
any structure and solely located on the
property. Council requested that this ite
be included and it was accepted by the
proponent of the rezoning, in order to
ensure that any cars located on the
property, there would be sufficient room 0

for the cars to be located in order to
reduce the amount of cars parking on the
street.
