An application to amend the Township of Verulam Zoning By-law to change the zone category to facilitate the creation of five (5) new residential lots for the property identified as Vacant Land on Rehill Drive, Verulam (Gurr)

Mr. Walker confirmed that a Public Meeting on this matter was held on August 16, 2017 in accordance with the Planning Act. He summarized the application, explaining that it proposes to change the zone category to facilitate the severance of five (5) residential lots within the Hamlet Settlement Area designation; and to retain the remainder of the lot as a rural residential lot which protects future agricultural uses.  The application conforms to the Growth Plan and is consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement.  Mr. Walker summarized the comments received to date, as detailed in his report, noting that concerns raised regarding road condition are to be addressed by requiring a pre-work road survey to note any potential deficiencies caused by the construction. The survey will be a condition of consent, and will be included in the consent agreement. Staff are recommending that the application be referred to Council for approval. He responded to questions from Committee members.
