Status: A Public Meeting is being held on Wednesday, February 11 at 7:00 p.m. in Council Chambers located at 10 Robert Street West. See the meeting agenda here: Town of Penetanguishene - Meeting Schedule

Description of the proposed development: A Consent application was provisionally approved by the Committee of Adjustment on September 29, 2025 to create three (3) new residential lots and one (1) retained lot (File No. B4/2023). The application was supported by an Environmental Impact Study (EIS) prepared by Azimuth Environmental Consulting Inc. and peer reviewed by WSP Canada on behalf of the Town. The EIS identified natural heritage features on the subject property that warrant protection through an Environmental Protection (EP) zone. Accordingly, a condition of approval was imposed by the Committee of Adjustment as follows:

That the approval of a Zoning By-law Amendment be obtained to rezone the wetland communities (identified in Figure No. 3 of the Peer Review prepared by WSP Canada, Inc. dated June 25, 2025) to the Environmental Protection zone.

The purpose of the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment is to rezone the natural heritage features on the subject property to an appropriate Environmental Protection zone.
