(Charleston Homes) (Formerly Summertree Homes) - 24T- 83008/H General Committee for the Town of Halton Hills will conduct a Public Meeting to examine and discuss the proposed Plan of Subdivision and amendment application to the Town of Halton Hills Zoning By-law 57-91, as amended. The proposed amendment applies to the property legally known as Part of Lot 23, Concession 10, Town of Halton Hills, former Township of Esquesing (Hamlet of Glen Williams). The vacant subject property is located on Confederation Street (Ninth Line), north of Bishop Court in the Hamlet of Glen Williams. Below is a map showing the location of the subject property to which the proposed Plan of Subdivision and Zoning By-law amendment would apply. The purpose and effect of the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment and Subdivision applications are to permit the establishment of a 31-lot Hamlet Estate Residential Subdivision, as Phase 2 of a 61-lot hamlet estate residential development, to be serviced by municipal water mains and private, individual septic systems. The property is currently designated Hamlet Estate Residential in the Town of Halton Hills Official Plan (OPA 113 Glen Williams Secondary Plan). This designation permits single detached residential uses, and home occupations and cottage industries, on piped water supply and private, individual septic systems. Portions of the property are also designated Core Greenlands and Supportive Greenlands. These designations permit uses such as non-intensive recreation uses, essential watershed management and flood and erosion control projects carried out by a public authority. Development may be permitted in Supportive Greenlands through the approval of an Environmental Implementation Report by the Conservation Authority and the Town. The subject lands are zoned Rural (RU) Zone. Permitted uses in the Rural (RU) Zone are agricultural and forestry uses, one single-family dwelling on any one lot, home occupations including the office of a qualified medical practitioner, consulting veterinarian or a professional office, and bed and breakfast establishments. The applicant is proposing to change the zoning for the subject property to a General Residential Special (RG-1) Zone and an Inherent Hazard Lands Special (OS2-1) Zone. If you wish to be notified of the decision of the Town of Halton Hills in respect of this proposed Zoning By-law Amendment and Plan of Subdivision, you must make a written request to the Town of Halton Hills PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT at 1 Halton Hills Drive, Halton Hills, Ontario L7G 5G2. If a person or public body does not make oral submissions at a public meeting or make written submissions to the Town of Halton Hills before the by-law is passed, the person or public body is not entitled to appeal the decision of Council of the Town of Halton Hills to the Ontario Municipal Board. If a person or public body does not make oral submissions at a public meeting, or make written submissions to the Town of Halton Hills before the by-law is passed, the person or public body may not be added as a party to the hearing of an appeal before the Ontario Municipal Board unless, in the opinion of the Board, there are reasonable grounds to do so.
