BY-LAW NO. 0496/2017 BEING A ZONING BY-LAW AMENDMENT TO BY-LAW NO. 0212/2006 AFFECTING ALL LANDS INTHE TOWNSHIP OF ADDINGTON HIGHLANDS Prepared by: IBI GROUP 650 Dalton Avenue Kingston, Ontario K7M 8N7 Project No, 109929 TOWNSHIP OF ADDINGTON HIGHLANDS EXPLANATORY NOTE TO BY-LAW NUMBER 0496/2017 PURPOSE OF THE BY-LAW The Township wishes to consider changes to Section 4.7.1 Setbacks from Waterbodies in Zoning By-law 0212/2006. Section 4.7.1.ii. of the by--lawrequires that all buildings and structures be set back a minimum of 300 metres from the high water mark of the following highly sensitive lake trout lakes: Ashby, Ashden (Ashby White), Barnard, Buckshot, Crystal, Effingham, Fox, Grimsthorpe, Joeperry, Long Mallory, Rainy, Weslemkoon, and Simpson lakes. Unless an existing lot of record on any of the lakes noted above is undersized in lot area and/or lot frontage and therefore qualifies for the exemption outlined in Section 4.6 of the by--law,the 300 metres setback applies to all buildings and structures. This is inconsistent with the Official Plan policies that specify that for existing lots of record on highly sensitive lake trout lakes a minimum 30 metre setback should be applied. The by--lawwill amend the minimum required setback for all existing lots of record from 300 metres to 30 metres. EFFECT OF THE BY-LAW REQUEST The amendment to the setback provisions from highly sensitive lake trout lakes will allow buildings and structures to be located a minimum of 30 metres from the high water mark of such lakes on existing lots of record. LOCATION OF PROPERTY This update to the Zoning By-law will affect lands throughout the Township of Addington Highlands, therefore no key map is provided.
