Notice of Public Meeting for a Proposed Zoning By-law Amendment

Date: June 2, 2026

TAKE NOTICE a statutory public meeting is taking place to discuss a proposed Amendment Zoning By-law affecting the property described above. The application was deemed complete on April 29, 2026 pursuant to Section 34 (10.4) of the Planning Act in accordance with the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990. O. Reg. 545/06 s. 5

Purpose and Effect: The application for zone change proposes to rezone the subject lands from Special Institutional Zone (IN-4) to Special Institutional Zone (IN-9) to permit a 3 storey, Residential Care Facility with a total of 15 residential units. The site-specific zoning will reduce the total number of parking spaces from 26 (inclusive of visitor and accessible) to 14 and 1 accessible space where 2 accessible spaces would be required based on the 26-space requirement.  The proposed zoning would allow for an off-site parking agreement of up to 8 parking spaces. The application also proposes to reduce the minimum interior side yard width from 6 m to 2.5 m and the minimum rear yard depth from 6 m to 5 m. The zone change will also include a definition for a Residential Care Facility. The proposed IN-9 will refer to the provisions of the R5 Zone but will allow for an off-site parking agreement.

Public Delegations and Participation: We value your input. Any person may express their support, opposition or comments to this application. 

ANY PERSON may attend the public meeting and/or make written or verbal representation either in support of or in opposition to the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment.

To submit comments or register for the Public Meeting, please contact the Municipal Clerk (contact details below) prior to 12:30 pm on the day of the meeting. 

If a person or public body would otherwise have an ability to appeal the decision of the Municipality of North Perth to the Ontario Land Tribunal but the person or public body does not make oral submissions at a public meeting or make written submissions to the Municipality of North Perth 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 North Perth 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 Ontario Land Tribunal unless, in the opinion of the Tribunal, there are reasonable grounds to do so.
