Proposed Zoning By-law Amendment
The Town of Petawawa is proposing to update the provisions of Zoning By-law 456/07 that relate to additional residential units (formerly known as second dwelling units). The purpose of this Town-initiated amendment is to update the Town’s additional residential unit zoning provisions to conform with changes to the Planning Act and the Town of Petawawa Official Plan. The proposed changes include, but are not limited to, changes to definitions and terminology, parking, requirements for lot area, lot coverage, yard setbacks and building height.
Additional information regarding the zoning by-law amendment is available for inspection at the Town of Petawawa Municipal Office during regular office hours.
The proposed amendment is a Town-initiated amendment to the zoning by-law that applies to the entire municipality. Therefore, no key map is provided with this notice.
If you wish to be notified of the decision of the Town of Petawawa on the proposed zoning by-law amendment, you must make a written request to the Town of Petawawa.
If a person or public body would otherwise have an ability to appeal the decision of the Town of Petawawa 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 the Town of Petawawa 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 a public meeting or make written submissions to the Town of Petawawa before the by-law is passed by the Town of Petawawa, 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.
