TAKE NOTICE that the Council of the Corporation of the Municipality of Port Hope in accordance with Sections 34 and 51 of the Planning Act will hold a Public Meeting on Wednesday, April 17, 2019 at 6:30 p.m. at the Town Hall to consider a proposed application to amend Zoning By-law 20/2010 (File # ZB09-2018) and an application for a Draft Plan of Subdivision (File # SU02-2018), both submitted by Kevin Duguay on behalf of 2564669 Ontario Inc. for lands on the west side of County Road 65, north of 5th Line (see Subject Lands Map).
The subject lands are currently designated “Hamlet” in the Municipal Official Plan and zoned Development “D” Zone by Zoning By-law 20/2010, as amended. Two natural heritage features, a designated wetlands area and a creek, are respectively located to the west and north of the subject lands.
THE PURPOSE of the proposed Draft Plan of Subdivision application is to facilitate the development of 20 lots for 20 single detached dwellings in a freehold tenure on the subject lands. A proposed road from County Road 65 will provide access to all properties.
THE PURPOSE of the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment is to rezone a 5.86 ha (14.48 ac) portion of the subject lands from Development ‘D’ Zone to Hamlet Residential One Exception No. 121 ‘RESV1(121)’ Zone for residential development. The 3.52 ha (8.70 ac) balance of the subject lands will be rezoned to Environmental Protection ‘EP’ Zone and will remain in an undisturbed natural state.
ANY PERSON may attend the Public Meeting and/or make written or verbal representation either in support of, or in opposition to the proposed plan of subdivision and Zoning By-law amendment. Should you be unable to attend the Public Meeting, your written submission will be received at the address given below up until the time of the Public Meeting.
If a person or public body would otherwise have an ability to appeal the decision of the Municipality of Port Hope to the Local Planning Appeal Tribunal but the person or public body does not make oral submissions at a public meeting or make written submissions to the Municipality of Port Hope before the by-law is passed, the person or public body is not entitled to appeal the decision.
If a person or public body does not make oral submissions at a public meeting, or make written submissions to the Municipality of Port Hope before the by-law is passed, the person or public body may not be added as a party to the hearing of an appeal before the Local Planning Appeal Tribunal unless, in the opinion of the Tribunal, there are reasonable grounds to do so.
Additional information relating to the proposed Draft Plan of Subdivision (File # SU02-2018) and Zoning By-law Amendment (File # ZB09-2018) is available for review between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., Monday to Friday at the Municipal Development Team Office located at 5 Mill Street South, Port Hope.
