Project Purpose The Town can
request that any person or public body seeking to obtain the approval of an
Amendment to the Official Plan, an Amendment to a Zoning By-Law, the approval
of a Plan of Subdivision, or the approval of a Consent provide such other
information or material that Council considers it may need, but only if the
Town’s Official Plan contains provisions relating to requirements under the
applicable subsections of the Planning Act.
The intent of this project is to produce a draft Official Plan
amendment with appropriate requirements. The Amendment will
make a number of changes to the Official Plan to set out the requirements for
a complete application in accordance with Sections 22(5), 34(10.2), 51(18)
and 53(3) of the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990 c.P.13. Prior to the
submission of an application for Official Plan Amendment, Zoning By-law
Amendment or Plan of Subdivision, applicants may be required to meet with
appropriate Town Staff to determine what studies, plans and other items are
required to support an application, but only if the Town has passed a By-law
to require pre-consultation. The
intent of this project is to produce a draft By-law that defines
pre-consultation requirements. The details of
the pre-consultation process are to be spelled out in a By-law passed pursuant
to Sections 22(3.1), 34(10.0.1) and 51(16.1) of the Planning Act. The intent of the pre-consultation process
is to identify what studies, plans and materials will be required to be
submitted with an application, and to determine the scale and scope of any
required study, plan or item. |
