The Chair requested staff to advise on the manner of giving notice for the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment. He also asked staff to briefly describe the proposal and summarize the correspondence, if any, received to date.

Mr. Stainton confirmed that the required notice was given in accordance with the Planning Act and circulated to each owner of land within 500 metres, and that a sign was posted on the subject property. He summarized the application, explaining that it proposes to sever an approximately 0.68 hectare (1.7 acres) rural residential lot containing a dwelling addressed as 763 City of Kawartha Lakes Road 46 and retain approximately 37.5 hectares (92.7 acres) of agricultural land to be consolidated with a non-abutting farm operation. The dwelling is deemed surplus to the needs of the farm operation. As a condition of the provisional consent decision, the agricultural land to be retained is to be rezoned to prohibit residential uses. To acknowledge the existing residential use, the proposed severed lands are to be rezoned to a rural residential type one zone category, which prohibits agricultural uses. The application is consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement, conforms to the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe and the Kawartha Lakes Official Plan. Mr. Stainton summarized the comments received to date, as detailed in his report, noting that subsequent to the writing of the report additional comments were received from Agricultural Economic Development Officer, the Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority, and Enbridge each with no concerns to the application.
