Please be advised that Council of the Municipality of South Huron passed By-law #72-2021 on the 6th day of December, 2021 under Section 34 of the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, as amended.
Purpose and Effect
The Zoning By-law Amendment application proposes a zone change from the existing R3 (Recreational Commercial) and R3-1 (Recreational Commercial – Special Zone) zoning to R1-17 (Low Density Residential – Special Zone), R3-14 (High Density Residential – Special Zone), R3-15 (High Density Residential – Special Zone), OS1 (Parks & Open Space), and U (Utility) zones.
The R1-17 zone is for the proposed single detached dwellings with provisions that:
a) reduce the minimum zone area and property frontage for interior lots,
b) remove the property depth requirement for proposed Lots 45, 84, and 85 due to their irregular shape,
c) reduce the minimum side yard setbacks where there is an attached garage,
d) reduce the minimum front yard setbacks for the dwelling and attached garage,
e) reduce the minimum exterior side yard setback, and
f) increase the encroachment for an unenclosed porch or deck into the required rear yard.
The R3-14 zone is for the street townhouse dwellings on proposed Blocks 1 to 4 with provisions that:
a) only permit multiple attached dwellings with a maximum of 6 units,
b) reduce the minimum frontage for end units,
c) reduce the minimum zone area for interior and exterior lots,
d) reduce the minimum front yard setbacks for the dwelling and attached garage,
e) reduce the side yard setbacks for end units on interior and exterior lots,
f) reduce the rear yard requirement,
g) increase the maximum zone coverage, and
h) increase the encroachment for an unenclosed porch or deck into the required rear yard.
The R3-15 zone is for the stacked townhouses proposed for Block 5 and limits the uses to multiple attached dwellings and stacked townhouse dwellings along with a definition and zoning regulations for stacked townhouse dwellings.
The Zoning By-law Amendment will not come into force until the Official Plan Amendment (OPA 19) is approved by the County of Huron, in accordance with Section 43(21) of the Planning Act.
