TOWN OF NORTHERN ARM DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS AMENDMENT No. 1, 2021 BACKGROUND The Town of Northern Arm is proposing to amend its Development Regulations. This Amendment is divided into two parts. PART A The Town has received enqumes regarding larger accessory buildings that the present maximum of 75m2 and mostly on larger tracts of land. Council will remove the maximum accessory building size and replace it with a 7% maximum lot coverage. The accessory Building paragraph (a) will reflect this change to read "Accessory buildings shall have a combined maximum lot coverage not exceeding 7%", and paragraph (h) will be changed to read "The maximum combined lot coverage of all buildings on a property shall not exceed 40%". Part B The former Osprey Landing Resort is zoned as Commercial Tourist. The resort has since closed and land assets are being severed and sold. The new owners feel that a Mixed Development Zone provided greater opportunities for future development. The purpose of this Amendment is to re-zone the eastern portion of the former Osprey Landing Resort from Residential Medium Density (RMD) to Mixed Development (MD) and Commercial Tourist (CT) to Mixed Development (MD). PUBLIC CONSULTATION During the preparation of this amendment, Council undertook the following initiative so that individuals and groups could provide input to the proposed Municipal Plan Amendment. The Town of Northern Arm placed a copy of the Public Consultation Ad on its Facebook page and posted a copy on the Town's Bulletin Board stating that the amendments would be on display from February 3 to February 17, 2021. The Town also placed the proposed amendments on display at the Town Council Office for residents to view and to provide any comments or concerns in writing to the Council concerning the proposed amendment. No letters or objections were received by the Town during the public consultation period.
