TAKE NOTICE that the Council of the Corporation of the Municipality of Trent Lakes will hold a public meeting to consider a Municipally initiated Official Plan Amendment (OPA No. 64) and Zoning By-Law Amendment (25-10) under Section 22 and 34 of the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. P.13, as amended.

Date and Time of Meeting: Tuesday, July 15, 2025 at 1:00 pm
Location of Meeting: Municipality of Trent Lakes Council Chambers, 760 Peterborough County Road 36, Trent Lakes, ON
Location of Subject Lands: The Amendments would apply to the entire Municipality

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.
