Previous Work:

The Zoning Issues and Analysis Report was completed in August 2017. The report provides a summary of the Provincial, Regional and local policies that need to be considered when developing the new Zoning By-law. Based on the policy review, a review of other modern Zoning By-laws in Ontario and initial consultation, the Report identifies a list of issues and items to be addressed through this project.

A series of Technical Papers have also been prepared in draft. The Technical Papers examine a wide range of specific issues in detail, to inform development of the new Zoning By-law. The Technical Papers address certain key policy and technical topics as identified in the Zoning Issues and Analysis Report.

• Draft Technical Paper #1 – Mixed Use and Intensification Areas
• Draft Technical Paper #2 – Commercial Areas
• Draft Technical Paper #3 – Minor Variances
• Technical Paper #4 – Employment Areas
• Draft Technical Paper #5 – Private Amenity Areas and Density Bonusing
• Draft Technical Paper #6 – Split and Dual Zoning
• Draft Technical Paper #7 – Secondary Plan Conformity
• Technical Paper #8 – Accessory Uses in Residential Areas
• Technical Paper #9 – Parking and Loading Standards Review

A Zoning Strategy Report has been prepared in draft and is dated August 2018. The Zoning Strategy Report builds upon the Zoning Issues and Analysis Report and Technical Papers and identifies a work plan for writing the new Zoning By-law. The Strategy ensures that the new Zoning By-law will be in conformity with the 2006 Official Plan policy, that it will be modern and easy to use, and that it will be aligned with other ongoing studies.
