REPORTS. 3.1 APPLICATION FOR ZONING BYLAW AMENDMENT.

YOU KNOW, WE DON'T ACTUALLY NEED ANY MOVERS OR SECONDERS OR ANYTHING FROM COUNCIL, BUT I DO HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE DETAILS HERE.

WE DID ORIGINALLY HAVE TWO PUBLIC MEETINGS SCHEDULED FOR THIS EVENING.

ONE ZONING AMENDMENT REQUEST WAS WITHDRAWN.

MEETING IS TO CONSIDER PROPOSED ZONING BYLAW AMENDMENTS TO THE CITY OF ELLIOT LAKE ZONING BYLAW 18-36 AND NOTICE OF CIRCULATION AND APPEAL STATEMENTS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE PLANNING ACT.

PUBLIC MEETING IS A REQUIREMENT OF THE PLANNING ACT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PLANNING ACT N OTICE MUST BE GIVEN AT LEAST 20 DAYS BEFORE THE PUBLIC MEETING IS HELD.

NOTICE OF THE PUBLIC MEETING WAS PROVIDED IN THE ELLIOT LAKE STANDARD.

IF YOU WISH TO BE NOTIFIED OF THE DECISION OF THE CITY OF ELLIOT LAKE ON THE PROPOSED ZONING BYLAW AMENDMENT, YOU MUST MAKE WRITTEN REQUEST TO THE CITY.

IF A PERSON OR A PUBLIC BODY WOULD OTHERWISE HAVE AN ABILITY TO APPEAL THE DECISION OF THE CITY TO THE ONTARIO LAND TRIBUNAL, BUT THE PERSON OR PUBLIC BODY DOES NOT MAKE ORAL SUBMISSIONS AT PUBLIC MEETING OR MAKE WRITTEN SUBMISSIONS TO THE CITY BEFORE BYLAWS 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 CITY BEFORE THE BYLAWS PASSED, THE PERSON OR PUBLIC BODY MAY NOT BE ADDED AS A PARTY TO THE HEARING OF AN APPEAL BEFORE THE ONTARIO LAND TRIBUNAL.

UNLESS, IN THE OPINION OF THE TRIBUNAL, THERE ARE REASONABLE GROUNDS TO DO SO.

AND SO THIS FIRST ONE IS FOR 42 OAKLAND BOULEVARD.

THE PROPOSED ZONING BYLAW AMENDMENT IS TO REZONE THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT 42 OAKLAND BOULEVARD FROM COMMERCIAL C-1 TO TOURIST HIGHWAY COMMERCIAL EXCEPTION 8 C2-8 TO PERMIT A BUILDING SUPPLY OUTLET WITH LIGHT MANUFACTURING ASSEMBLY AS PERMITTED USES ON SUBJECT PROPERTY. APPLICANT'S COMMENTS.

AT THIS TIME, WE WOULD PROCEED WITH A PUBLIC MEETING BY FIRST ASKING IF THE APPLICANT OR THEIR REPRESENTATIVE WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK REGARDING THE APPLICATION.

MS. BRAY I BELIEVE THEY ARE NOT AVAILABLE.

IS THERE ANY REPRESENTATIVE AVAILABLE FOR THEIR PORTION? NO. YOUR WORSHIP THERE IS NOT.

[3.2. Report from J.L Richards]

THE CITY PLANNER FROM JL RICHARDS AND ASSOCIATE HAS PREPARED A REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION FOR COUNCIL'S REVIEW ON THE APPLICATION.

CORRESPONDENCE COMMENTS RECEIVED.

WE HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY WRITTEN SUBMISSIONS ON THE APPLICATION FROM MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC.

MS. BRAY ANY ANYONE CONTACT YOU SINCE I LEFT? NOPE, WE'VE RECEIVED NO COMMENTS.

I CAN GO THROUGH THE REPORT FROM A PLANNER VERY QUICKLY.

HIGH LEVEL IF THAT'S REQUIRED.

OKAY. SO THE CITY IS WE INITIATED THE ZONING BYLAW AMENDMENT TO A CONDITION NOTED IN THE AGREEMENT OF PURCHASE AND SALE FOR THE SUBJECT PROPERTY.

THE PURPOSES, AS YOU MENTIONED, OF THE PROPOSED ZONING BYLAW AMENDMENT APPLICATION WOULD BE TO REZONE THE SUBJECT PROPERTY FROM CENTRAL COMMERCIAL C-1 TO TOURIST HIGHWAY COMMERCIAL EXCEPTION 8 C2-8 TO PERMIT A BUILDING SUPPLY OUTLET WITH LIGHT MANUFACTURING ASSEMBLY AS PERMITTED USES ON THE SUBJECT PROPERTY.

THE OWNER OF THE SUBJECT PROPERTY IS PROPOSING TO OPERATE AN ELECTRICAL CONTRACTING SHOP WHICH COMPRISES OF AN OFFICE SPACE STORAGE SPACE FOR INVENTORY AS WELL AS RETAIL OF LIGHT FIXTURES AND RELATED ITEMS. FURTHER, THE OWNER INTENDS TO SHARE THE BUILDING WITH A WOODWORK CONTRACTOR WHO WILL BE UNDERTAKING LIGHT MANUFACTURING AND SALE OF CABINETS ON A PART OF THE PROPERTY.

THE PROPOSED USES ARE NOT PERMITTED AS A RIGHT ON THE SUBJECT PROPERTY AND A ZONING BYLAW AMENDMENT IS REQUIRED TO PROCEED.

SO THE PROPOSED ZONING BYLAW AMENDMENT IS CONSISTENT WITH THE INTENT AND POLICIES OF THE PROVINCIAL POLICY STATEMENT, THE GROWTH PLAN FOR NORTHERN ONTARIO AND CONFORMS TO THE CITY OF ELLIOT LAKES OFFICIAL PLAN.

AND AS SUCH, THE AMENDMENT IS RECOMMENDED BY OUR PLANNERS FOR APPROVAL.
