Purpose and Effect of the
Proposed Official Plan and
Zoning By-law
Amendments
Sections 2.1.4, 2.1.6 and 2.2 of
the Provincial Planning
Statement (2024) require
planning authorities to plan for
an appropriate range of housing
options to accommodate future
growth. The term "housing
options" is defined in the PPS
to include additional
residential units. An additional
residential unit is a
self-contained dwelling unit
that is located within and forms
parts of a dwelling unit or is
constructed as a stand-alone or
as part of an accessory
building.
The Official Plan Amendment is
proposed to create a new policy
section that would permit a
maximum of one additional
residential unit on a lot either
within a dwelling or within or
part of an independent accessory
building. The Amendment also
authorizes the Zoning By-law to
regulate additional residential
units.
The Zoning By-Law Amendment
would define, permit and
regulate additional residential
units in the Rural (RU),
Shoreline Residential (SR),
Hamlet Residential (HR) and
Rural Residential (RR) Zones.
The Amendment would not permit
additional residential units on
any lot accessed by a private
road or located within 300
metres of a lake trout lake or
on a lot serviced by a municipal
water system.
