The proposals before the Town deal with the area of the cur rent draft approved plan 24T-00006. Official Plan - Figure Q, Land Use, West Oak Trails Community, desig nates the subject site as Residential Low Density 2. The application before the Town will not am end the Official Plan. Zoning - The subject sites are zoned R11, R12 and R8(a) subject to Special Provision 89(713). P roposal - Applications involving a Zoning Amendment and revision to an approved draft plan of subdivision have been submitted. The Zoning Amendment would permit a "shuffling" of various sem i-detached and multiple unit blocks to allow for a more effective subdivision design. As a result the draft plan of subdivision will be revised accordingly. In addition, a small parcel of land along the western boundary of the property will also be rezoned in order to allow for consistent zoning with abutting lands. P lea se Note: This proposal may be subject to changes or modifications at a future public meeting. Dated at the Town of Oakville this 15th day of January 2003.
