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.

PURPOSE This By-law affects the property legally described as Part Lot 1244, Plan 376, and Blocks 11 & 12, Plan 22M11, Exeter Ward, Municipality of South Huron. The lands to be rezoned are currently zoned R3-1-H (Residential – High Density – Special Zone with a Holding Symbol) in the South Huron Zoning By-law and are proposed to be rezoned to R2-5-H (Residential – Medium Density – Special Zone with a Holding Symbol) and R3-12-H (Residential – High Density – Special Zone with a Holding Symbol) to reflect proposed modifications to the draft plan of subdivision to incorporate an apartment building and revised multiple attached dwelling requirements. The R2-5 zone provisions sets the following requirements for single detached dwellings in this zone: front yard of at least 6.5 metres to a garage and 5 metres to the dwelling, rear yard of at least 6 metres, and a maximum zone coverage of 48%. The original application requested a rear yard of 4.5 metres to a deck but as the permitted encroachment section of the Zoning By-law permits a 2.5 metre encroachment for decks this site specific provision is unnecessary and has been removed from the application.
