Please note: this meeting has been rescheduled from the previously advertised meeting time on September 28, 2022 at 6:30 p.m. to the new time of 4:00 p.m.
Take notice that the Council of the Corporation of the Municipality of Port Hope hereby considers an application to amend Zoning By-law 20/2010, as amended, submitted by Clark Consulting Services, for lands municipally known as 143 Walton Street, in the Urban Area of the Municipality of Port Hope (see Figure 1: Subject Lands Map), to be a Complete Application in accordance with Section 34(10.7) of the Planning Act. Furthermore, the Council of the Corporation of the Municipality of Port Hope will hold a Public Meeting on Wednesday, September 28, 2022 at 4:00 p.m. in person at the Town Hall, to consider the proposed application (File: ZB06-2022).
The lands are currently designated ‘Central Commercial’ and ‘Steep Slope’ in the Municipality of Port Hope Official Plan and are part of Walton ‘Heritage Conservation District’. The property is zoned Downtown Commercial ‘COM3’ by the Municipal Zoning By-law 20/2010, as amended.
The purpose of the Zoning By-law amendment is to rezone the subject lands to a site-specific Downtown Commercial ‘COM3(139)’ Zone in order to permit the conversion of the ground floor area to a residential use.
Additional information and material about the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment (File: ZB06-2022) will be available to the public for review between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., Monday to Friday at the Municipal Development Team Office located at 5 Mill Street South, Port Hope.
Residents can always provide comments and feedback in writing until a decision is made on the application. Comments and questions can be sent to the Planning Department.
If a person or public body would otherwise have an ability to appeal the decision of Municipality of Port Hope 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 Municipality of Port Hope 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 the public meeting, or make written submissions to the Municipality of Port Hope in respect of the proposed zoning by-law amendment 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.
If you wish to be notified of the decision of the Municipality of Port Hope on the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment, you must make a written request to the Municipality of Port Hope at the address of 56 Queen Street, Port Hope, ON L1A 3Z9.
