Applicant: GSP Group Inc. c/o Brandon Flewwelling This report is submitted for the Council Meeting on July 15, 2019 RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that Council: 1) Amend the By-law to require 1.5 parking spaces per unit rather than 1.25 as requested; 2) Pass a motion under Section 34(17) that minor changes were made since the public meeting which do not require further public notification; 3) Approve rezoning application Z19/2018 as amended. PURPOSE AND EFFECT This By-law affects the property legally described as Part of Lot 15, Concession 1, former Usborne Ward, with Right of Way (ROW), Municipality of South Huron. The subject lands are located in the southeast end of Exeter, fronting on Simcoe Street. The subject lands are currently designated Residential in the South Huron Official Plan. This Zoning By-law amendment proposes a change from the existing Development (D) and Low Density Residential Zone (R1) to a Residential High Density Special Provisions Zone (R3-9). The applicant proposes to construct a stacked/clustered townhouse development. The South Huron Comprehensive Zoning By-law does not have provisions for this type of development; as a result, a site specific zone (R3-9) is proposed for this development.
