Purpose and Effect of the Zoning By-law
The proposed Zoning By-law is a new Comprehensive Zoning By-law for
the Township of Limerick. The Zoning By-law is intended to implement the
objectives and policies of the Official Plan of the County of Hastings,
and provides a legal way of managing land use and future development in
the Township. The By-law deals with matters such as how land may be
used, where buildings and other structures can be located on a property,
the types of buildings and structures that are permitted, lot sizes and
dimensions, parking requirements, building heights, and setbacks from
streets and shorelines.
The Zoning By-law sets out definitions for terms used in the By-law,
a range of general zone provisions, and zone provisions for specific
zone categories such as Rural Residential, Limited Service Residential,
Waterfront Residential, Rural Commercial, Recreation/Resort Commercial,
Rural Industrial, Community Facility, and other zone categories.
Upon its final approval, the proposed By-law will be a Comprehensive
Zoning By-law for the Township of Limerick, and will replace the
existing Zoning By-law No. 3-80 of the Township of Limerick.
Representation
The purpose of the open house on May 29, 2010 was to provide an
informal opportunity for the public to review the proposed Zoning By-law
and discuss the By-law with municipal representatives.
Any person may attend the public meeting on July 6, 2010 and make
written and/or verbal representation either in support of or in
opposition to the proposed Zoning By-law.
If a person or public body does not make oral submissions at a public
meeting or make written submissions to the Township of Limerick before
the By-law is passed, the person or public body is not entitled to
appeal the decision of the Township of Limerick to the Ontario Municipal
Board.
