DATED at the Town of Halton Hills this 26th day of September, 2013. 99 NOTICE OF STATUTORY PUBLIC MEETING TOWN INITIATED ZONING BY-LAW AMENDMENT PERTAINING TO PARKING REQUIREMENTS IN DOWNTOWN GEORGETOWN AND ACTON DATE: Monday, October 21, 2013 TIME: 7:30 P.M. LOCATION: Council Chambers, Civic Centre 1 Halton Hills Dr. Halton Hills Town of Halton Hills Council will hold a statutory public meeting to discuss a draft Zoning By-law Amendment pertaining to parking requirements in Downtown Georgetown and Acton. The draft Zoning By-law Amendment: • Specifies that existing non-residential uses within existing buildings and structures in the Downtown Commercial One (DC1) Zone in downtown Georgetown and Acton (as shown on the key maps) would be exempt from providing additional parking if they are switching to another non-residential use that would generate a requirement for additional parking (for example retail to restaurant). • Spec i f i es tha t any expans ions o r enlargements to non-residential buildings within the DC1 Zones are not permitted to remove existing parking spaces unless the same number of parking spaces can be provided elsewhere on site, or if Council approves the provision of cash-in-lieu of the removed parking spaces. • Increases the maximum size of home occupations in single detached dwellings from 15 square metres to 45 square metres in the DC1 Zones in Downtown Acton and Georgetown. This is consistent with the approach taken in the rest of the Town which recognizes that often single detached dwellings can accommodate the increased parking requirement that is required when introducing home occupations greater than 15 square metres. These revisions would still have the effect of triggering parking requirements in the DC1 Zones in downtown Georgetown and Acton for the following: • construction of a new residential or non-residential building or structure; • expansion to an existing non-residential building or structure; and, • conversion of a residential use to a non-residential use. The affected lands are shown as the DC1 Zones on the Key Maps below. Key Maps: Location of Subject Lands Following the statutory public meeting, Town staff will prepare a report to Council which will respond to oral and written comments received, and provide a final recommendation on passage of the Zoning By-law Amendment. Copies of the staff reports and the draft Amendment is available for public review and comment in the Town of Halton Hills Planning, Development and Sustainability Department or on the Town's website http://haltonhills.ca/ downtownparking.
