The proposed Zoning By-law Amendment (Town File: D14611) pertains to lands situated within the Pretty River Estates subdivision (registered Plan 51M-945), north of Poplar Side Road and approximately 200 m to the east of Hurontario Street.  The lands are legally described as Lots 68 to 75 Registered Plan 51M-945, in the Town of Collingwood and County of Simcoe and front onto Robertson Street.  The parcels of land are presently designated in the Town of Collingwood Official Plan as Low Density Residential.  The subject lands are presently zoned in the Town of Collingwood Zoning By-law No. 2010-040, as amended, Residential Second Density Exception Twenty-Two (R2-22). 

 

THE PURPOSE AND EFFECT of the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment is to rezone the subject lands from the Residential Second Density Exception (R2-22) zone to a Residential Third Density Exception (R3-XX) zone to permit the creation of 15 building lots, with minimum lot frontages of 10 metres and minimum exterior sideyard setbacks of 2.5 metres, where 8 lots are currently registered for 16 semi-detached dwelling units.

 

The Town has also received an application for exemption from the Part Lot Control provisions of the Planning Act in order to facilitate the creation of the associated building lots (File No. D1206511).
