## TOWN OF CARBONEAR DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS AMENDMENT NO. 37, 2019
## PURPOSE
The Carbonear Municipal Plan and Development Regulations came into legal effect in 2004. Part I! of the Development Regulations include standards and conditions for signage within the Town. Council wishes to update and modernize these regulations and consolidate all references to signage within this section of the Development Regulations. By way of this amendment, the Town is also intending to apply to the Province to enable municipal regulation of signage along Route 70 within the Town which is currently a Provincial Highway and subject to Provincial Highway Sign Regulations.
## BACKGROUND
The Carbonear Municipal Plan allows for signs and advertisements and requires that standards and conditions be set out in the Development Regulations. Since the Carbonear Municipal Plan and Development Regulations were approved over a decade ago, the Town has grown considerably, with additional commercial and residential development, expansion of highway and other infrastructure. At the same time, technology related to signage has also evolved. For example, today, signage that uses LED (light emitting diode) technology in commercial signage is becoming prevalent. The current regulations related to signage do not include any provisions to enable Council to deal with these new technologies in signage.
Signage along roads maintained by the Provincial Department of Transportation and Works (Route 70) is subject to the Provincial Highway Sign Regulations. These regulations do not permit signs such as offsite promotional or directional signage. Within built up commercial areas in communities, it is often desirable to be able to provide information to direct traffic to other areas in the town, such as downtown commercial districts for example.
Recent changes to the Provincial Highway Sign Regulations now allow provincial roads to be exempted from provincial control if the municipality where those roads are located has provisions in their Municipal Plans and Development Regulations for local signage that is acceptable to government. Section 3.1(b) of the regulations require that exemptions from provincial control are limited to areas where speeds are no higher than 60 km/h. The Town intends to seek an exemption from provincial signage control along Columbus Drive (Route 70), between London Road and Clarke's Road where the speed limit is 50km per hour. In this area, municipal signage regulations would apply. The area in question is shown on the map on the following page.
<!-- image -->
The provisions in the signage regulations included in this proposed amendment are intended to satisfy government's requirements to allow exemption of this portion of Route 70 from the Provincial Highway Sign Regulations.
## CONSULTATION
The Town of Carbonear provided an opportunity for public review and comment on the proposed amendment by publishing a notice in the Compass on January 8, 2020 inviting written comment by January 17. The amendment document was also posted on the Town's social media and made available for public viewing at the Town Office.
In preparing the changes to the signage regulations, the Town consulted with the provincial departments of Transportation and Works, Municipal Affairs and Environment, Service NL and Tourism, Culture, Industry and Innovation and their input has been incorporated into the amendment. In addition, officials from the Town of Conception Bay South provided additional input as they have recently revised their signage regulations to satisfy provincial requirements for exemption of provincial highways in that town.
## AMENDMENT
The Town Council of Carbonear proposes to amend the Carbonear Development Regulations as follows:
1. Deleting the definitions for Advertisements and Signs from Schedule A: Definitions;
2. Removing the following conditions pertaining to on-site and off-site signage from the following Use Zones in Schedule C as follows:
