Purpose and Effect:

The purpose of the Zoning By-law Amendment Application for 1022 Fire Route 89 is to rezone the 
subject lands from the ‘Seasonal Residential (SR) Zone’ to the ‘Special District 292 Holding (S.D. 
292-H) Zone’ in order to permit the redevelopment of the lot with a new seasonal residential 
dwelling, detached garage, and boathouse, while also introducing certain site-specific regulations 
for setbacks from the high water mark and front lot line, height of the detached garage, and 
overhangs for the dwelling.

The Zoning By-law Amendment Application is requesting to permit a reduction of the 30 metre high 
water setback, recognizing the existing deficient setback from the high water mark and front lot 
line of 12.8 metres (42 feet) for the new seasonal residential dwelling. The new seasonal residential dwelling is also proposed to include overhangs exceeding the required maximum projection distance in the Zoning By-law of 0.6 metres (2 feet) and requesting relief for a maximum projection of 0.9 metres (3 feet). The rezoning also serves to request relief for a maximum height of 7.31 metres (24 feet) for the proposed accessory structure, where only 4.5 metres (14.7 feet) is currently permitted. The Zoning By-law Amendment Application is requesting to increase the maximum total floor area of all accessory buildings or structures from 75% of the total floor area of the main building on a lot in the 'Seasonal Residential (SR) Zone' to 78%.

A key map showing the lands to which this application applies is provided with this notice.

Any person may attend the public meeting and/or make verbal or written representation either in 
support of or in opposition to the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment. Written submissions in respect 
of the proposed Amendment should be directed to the Clerk of the Township of Havelock-Belmont-Methuen.

If a person or public body would otherwise have an ability to appeal the decision of the Council
of the Corporation of the Township of Havelock-Belmont-Methuen to the Ontario Land Tribunal but the person or public body does not make oral submissions at a public meeting or make written submissions to the Township of Havelock-Belmont-Methuen before the by-law is passed, the person or public body is not entitled to appeal the decision.

If a person or public body does not make an oral submission at the public meeting or make written 
submissions to the Township of Havelock-Belmont-Methuen 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 Land Tribunal unless, in the opinion of the Tribunal, there are reasonable grounds to do so.
