Please be advised that Council of the Municipality of South Huron passed By-law #39-2021 on the 20th day of September, 2021 under Section 34 of the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, as amended.
Purpose and Effect
The applicant proposes to rezone the subject lands in combination with a Plan of Subdivision application which will be considered at the same public meeting. The re-zoning will recognize the new lot fabric and relationship between the existing dwellings and new lot lines. The re-zoning will amend the zoning on a small portion of the subject lands, located along the southern boundary from Open Space – Special Provisions (OS-2) to Residential Low Density (R1-19). The re-zoning also proposes to rezone the former school property from Community Facility (CF) to Future Development (FD).
The subject lands are currently designated Residential in the South Huron Official Plan.
The relief being sought under the R1-19 site specific zones is as follows:
In the area zoned R1-19, the following special provisions apply:
1. Section 3.20.1 (Legal Non-Complying Status) does not apply.
2. Minimum Lot Frontage is 12.9 metres for detached dwelling on a corner and 12.3 metres for a detached dwelling on an interior lot

Effect of Written and Oral Submissions
The planning report was presented with a recommendation to Council. There were a number of written comments from members of the public as well as commenting agencies. The Public meeting combined discussion for both the Draft Plan of Subdivision and Rezoning of the property.
The re-zoning will recognize the new lot fabric and relationship between the existing dwellings and new lot lines to rezone the subject lands in combination with a Plan of Subdivision application. The majority of the concerns raised prior to and at the public meeting were in regard to the Plan of Subdivision application and have been addressed through conditions to draft plan approval.
