Zoning By-law Amendment Application(s)
a) File #Z01/25 and File #Z02/25 - Application for Zoning By-law Amendments to re- zone from Recreational Commercial (RC) to Limited Service Rural (LSR), Limited Service Waterfront (LSW), and Recreational Commercial Exception Zone 6 (RC-X6)
Dmitry Kurylovich, Senior Planner with the County of Frontenac, provided an overview of the proposed Zoning By-law Amendments. He noted the subject properties are side by side and the rezoning is required as a condition of severance.
File Z01/25 - Part 23, Concession 9 Kurylovich advised the lots are accessed by an existing right-of-way/private lane, with two of the lots having frontage on Antoine Lake. He noted the lots are too small to be used as a Recreational Commercial property; therefore the lots should be rezoned to more appropriate zoning designations to permit residential use. Kurylovich advised the lots would be rezoned as follows: Lot 1 (B18/24) Recreational Commercial (RC) to Limited Service Rural (LSR); Lot 2 (B19/24) Recreational Commercial (RC) to Limited Service Waterfront (LSW); and Lot 3 (B20/24) Recreational Commercial (RC) to Limited Service Waterfront (LSW).
Kurylovich noted the retained parcel will be rezoned from Recreational Commercial to Recreational Commercial-X6 to permit a residential use as a main use. He noted the comments received were similar to comments received during the consent process with respect to private lane access, septic approval and natural hazards. He recommended approval of the application, subject to any public comments received at the meeting.
File Z02/25 - Part 23, Concession 9 Kurylovich advised these applications are located west of the first property (File Z01/25) and that the lots would be rezoned as follows: Lot 4 (B22/24) Recreational Commercial (RC) to Limited Service Rural (LSR); and Lot 5 (B23/24) Recreational Commercial (RC) to Rural (RU).
Lot 4 will be rezoned LSR as the lot is accessed by a private lane. Lot 5 will be rezoned Rural because it has frontage on a Township road. Kurylovich noted the retained parcel will be rezoned from Recreational Commercial to Recreational Commercial-X6 to permit residential use as a main use. He noted the comments received were similar to comments received during the consent process with respect to private lane access, septic approval and natural hazards. He recommended approval of the application.
Deputy Mayor Inglis asked if there was any other development on Antoine Lake. Page 2 of 3
