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.
