SECTION 1 - INTRODUCTION & TITLE
1.1 Introductory Statement
This document is the Township of Huron-Kinloss Comprehensive Zoning By-law (By-law
2018-98), as amended. The By-law replaces all previous Zoning By-laws in the
jurisdiction.
1.1.1 Purpose of a Zoning By-Law
A Comprehensive Zoning By-law is a precise document used by the Township of Huron-
Kinloss (the Township) to regulate the use of land. It states which land uses are currently
permitted in the Township and provides other detailed information.
The Township's Zoning By-law implements the objectives and policies of the County of
Bruce Official Plan and Township of Huron-Kinloss Official Plan. The Zoning By-law acts
as a legal tool under Ontario's Planning Act for managing the use of land and future
development in the Township. Zoning By-laws also protect property owners from the
development of conflicting land uses. Any use of land or the construction or use of any
building or structure not specifically authorized by this By-law is prohibited.
1.2
Title
This By-law shall be known as the "ZONING BY-LAW" of the Corporation of the Township
of Huron-Kinloss.
2
SECTION 2 - ADMINISTRATION &
ZONES
2.1
Application
The provisions of this By-law shall apply to all lands within the limits of the zone
boundaries shown on the Zoning Schedules attached as Schedule "A" hereto. Within
said areas, no person shall erect, alter, enlarge or use any building or structure in whole
or in part, nor use any land in whole or in part, except in accordance with the provisions
of this By-law.
2.2
Effective Date
This By-law shall come into effect as of the date of the final passing thereof by the
Council of the Corporation of the Township of Huron-Kinloss subject to compliance with
the provisions of the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990 and amendments thereto.
2.3
Validity
If any provision of this By-law including anything shown on the Zoning Schedules
attached as Schedule "A" hereto, is for any reason held to be invalid, it is hereby
declared to be the intention that all the remaining provisions of the said By-law shall
remain in full force and effect until repealed, notwithstanding that one or more provisions
shall have been declared to be invalid.
2.4
Contravention & Penalties
Every person who contravenes any of the provisions of this By-law is guilty of an offense
and on conviction is liable:
a) On a first conviction to a fine of not more than $25,000.00; and
b) On a subsequent conviction to a fine of not more than $10,000.00 for each day or
part thereof which the contravention has continued after the day on which the
person was first convicted.
Where a corporation is convicted, the maximum penalty that may be imposed is:
a) On a first conviction a fine of not more than $50,000.00; and
3
b) On a subsequent conviction a fine of not more than $25,000.00 for each day or
part thereof upon which the contravention has continued after the date on which
the corporation was first convicted.
Penalties imposed by conviction under this Section shall be recoverable under the
Provincial Offenses Act.
2.5
Licenses and Permits
No person is entitled to a permit, certificate or license for a proposed use of land or a
proposed alteration, erection, enlargement or use of any building that is in violation of
any provisions of this By-law.
2.6
Compliance with Other Legislation and Other By-laws
Nothing in this By-law shall serve to relieve any person from the obligation to comply
with the requirements of the Ontario Building Code Act, or any other legislation; the
Building By-law; and any other by-law of the Corporation in force from time to time or
from the obligation to obtain any license, permit, authority or approval required by the
Corporation or any other public agency or government body.
2.7
Certificate of Occupancy
No change may be made in the type of use of any land covered by this By-law or
change in the type of use of any building located on any such land without a Certificate
of Occupancy being issued by the Township's Chief Building Official to the effect that
the proposed use is not contrary to this By-law. Notwithstanding the above, no Certificate
of Occupancy shall be required for a farm residence, single detached dwelling, duplex
dwelling, or a semi-detached dwelling or uses accessory thereto.
2.8
Person Designated To Administer By-Law
This By-law is passed pursuant to Section 34 of the Planning Act, R.S.O, 1990, as
amended and shall be administered and enforced by such person or persons as shall be
appointed from time to time as the Zoning Administrator, which may include the Chief

2.10 Interpretation of Zone Boundaries
Where any uncertainty exists as to the location of the boundary of any zone as shown
on the Zoning Schedules, the following provisions shall apply:
1. Where any Zone boundary is indicated as following a highway, street,
lane, railway right-of-way, or watercourse, the boundary shall be deemed
to be the centerline of the highway, street, lane, railway right-of-way or
watercourse.
2. Where any zone boundary is indicated as approximately following lot lines
as existing as of the date of the passing of this By-law, the zone boundary
shall be deemed to follow such lot lines.
5
3. Where any zone boundary is indicated as approximately parallel to an
adjacent street and the distance from the street is not indicated, the zone
boundary shall be deemed to being parallel to the street line, and the
distance from the street shall be determined by the scale shown on the
Zoning Schedules.
4. Where any zone boundary is indicated as approximately following a
shoreline, the boundary shall be deemed to be the shoreline and, in the
event that the shoreline changes, the zone boundary shall be deemed to
have moved with the new shoreline limit.
5. Where any zone boundary is left uncertain after application of the
provisions of subsections 1-4 above, then the boundary shall be
determined by the use of the scale shown on the Zoning Schedules.
6. The Environmental Protection Zone identified on Schedule "A" to this By-
law is intended to identify general boundaries of existing or potential natural
hazards. The Environmental Protection Zone boundaries can be
interpreted more precisely by the Chief Building Official in consultation with
the appropriate agency, which may include the conservation authority, at the
time of application for a change of land use, subdivision of land and
application for a building permit without an amendment to this by-law.
7. Wherever it occurs, the municipal limit of the Corporation is deemed to be
the boundary of the zone extending to it.
8. Where a lot has two or more of its parts classified in different zones, then
the provisions for each zone shall apply to each part as if said part was a
separate lot excepting the following:
i. Where a portion of a lot is zoned 'EP' and / or 'OS' such portion may
be used to satisfy any yard setback requirements of the principal
portion.
ii. Where a portion of a lot is partially within the 'EP' and / or 'OS' Zone,
that portion of the lot within the 'EP' and/or 'OS' Zone may be used if
required in calculating the Minimum Lot Area provided that the 'EP'
and /or 'OS' lands comprise no more that 90% of the required
Minimum Lot Area.
Explanatory Note:
If a lot is within two zones, the boundary between the two zones should not
be considered to be a lot line for setback purposes.
In the event that a street, lane, private road, or road allowance, shown on the zone
maps, is closed the lands formerly in said street, lane, private road or road allowance
shall be included within the zone of the adjoining property on either side of said closed
street, lane, private road, or road allowance unless:
a) The said street, lane, private road, or road allowance was a zone boundary
6
between two or more different zones, in which case the new zone boundary shall
be the former centreline of the closed street, lane, private road, or road
allowance; or
b) The land formerly included in such street, lane, private road, or road allowance is
purchased in its entirety by an abutting landowner, in which case the land shall be
included in the same zone as that of the abutting landowner purchasing said land.
2.11 Special Provisions
Within any zone, special provisions may apply to specific parcels of land in the manner
and to the extent as set out in the Special Provisions section of the By-law. Reference to
such special provisions shall be shown on the Zoning Schedules by the use of the
symbol of the corresponding zone followed by a dash and number. Such number shall
correspond to the subsection number found in the special provisions of the corresponding
zone. Unless otherwise provided, all other provisions of that zone and this By-law shall
apply to the land.
2.12 Holding Zones
Where the Zone symbol applying to certain lands as shown on Schedule "A" is followed
by the letter "H" in parentheses (i.e. R1 (H)) the lands have been placed in a "Holding
Zone" pursuant to Section 36 of the Planning Act, as amended. The Holding Symbol "H"
shall be removed at such time in the future when plans to develop the lands have been
submitted and approved by the Corporation or such other conditions as deemed
appropriate by the Corporation have been met in accordance with Section 6.6 of the
Bruce County Official Plan and Section 5.5 of the Huron-Kinloss Official Plan. When the
Holding Symbol has been removed, the lands shall be developed according to the
requirements of the Zone used in conjunction with the Holding Symbol.
Notwithstanding the above, non-structural uses, existing uses, and accessory uses
thereof, shall be permitted as interim uses on lands in a "Holding Zone", until the Holding
Symbol "H" is removed and any applicable conditions met.
H1 Notwithstanding their underlying zoning designation, on those lands identified as
being subject to the "H1" Holding zone, lot grading; excavation; and/or
construction shall not be permitted unless the Holding (H1) zone provision is
removed. The area of the H1 zone that may be lifted shall be limited to the area
included in the assessment and may only be removed by Council upon:
1)
Approval by the Zoning Administrator of an Archaeological Assessment
which has been:
a. Conducted by an archaeologist licensed in the Province of Ontario;
and
b. Confirmed by the appropriate Ministry to have been accepted into the
7
Ontario Public Register of Archaeological Reports and,
c. Includes engagement with the Saugeen Ojibway Nation in
accordance with its process and standards.
2)
Confirmation to the satisfaction of the Zoning Administrator that the
recommendations of the archaeological report (if any) have been
implemented.
3)
Where a Consent for lot creation or lot enlargement application has been
approved by the County of Bruce, or its delegate, and/or when a Minor
Variance is approved by the Township of Huron-Kinloss. The appropriate
Zone Map in this By-law shall be updated to recognize areas of the land that
are within an area identified as having "High Archaeological Potential" in the
Bruce County screening maps and may be zoned with a "-H1" holding. The
"-H1" holding may be removed in accordance with Section 2.12 1).
These provisions shall come into effect upon approval of the applicable
application and without requiring amendment to this by-law, subject to a
delegation by-law.
The appropriate zoning map will not be updated with a -H1 Holding where:
a) An archeological assessment has been conducted by an archaeologist
in the Province of Ontario, that includes engagement with the Saugeen
Ojibway Nation in accordance with its process and standards, confirmed
by the appropriate Ministry to have been accepted into the Ontario
Public Register of Archaeological Reports and the recommendations of
the assessment implemented to the satisfaction of the Zoning
Administrator.
b) It has been demonstrated, in consultation with the Saugeen Ojibway
Nation, and to the satisfaction of the Zoning Administrator, that deep
ground disturbance has recently occurred.
c) In consultation with the Saugeen Ojibway Nation, a Minor Variance that
does not facilitate new construction.
d) The re-creation of original township lots.
2.13 Floodfringe (f) Regulated Area
Where the suffix (f) follows the land use zone symbol, this is notice that the property is
within the floodfringe and any development or site alteration will require the issuance of
a development permit from the Maitland Valley Conservation Authority.
2.14
2.14 Dynamic Beach (db) Allowance (30m)
Where the suffix (db) follows the land use zone symbol, this is notice that the property is
subject to a minimum setback from the '100 year floodline' of 30 metres. This regulated
area of the Saugeen Valley Conservation Authority extends 45 metres from the '100
year floodline' and was established through the Huron-Kinloss Dynamic Beach Study -
Phase II (April 2008) & Phase III (August 2010) prepared for the Township of Huron-
Kinloss by W.F. Baird & Associates Coastal Engineers Ltd.
8
In accordance with the recommendations of the Baird & Associates studies, the
elevation of the minimum building opening to habitable space should not be lower than
the following:
a) 181.5 m GSC (Geodetic Survey of Canada) for opening located less than or
equal to 30 m from the 100-year flood level;
b) 179.5 m GSC for openings located 45 m from the 100-year flood level; or
c) Linearly interpolated between 181.5 m GSC and 179.5 m GSC for openings
located between 30 m and 45 m respectively from the 100-year flood level.
Site alteration to accommodate residential development will only be permitted with the
approval of the Township and Conservation Authority, and will be subject to setback and
minimum elevation requirements.
2.15 Technical Revisions to the Zoning By-law
Technical revisions may be made to this By-law from time to time without further public
notice or Council approval. Technical revisions include:
a) Correction of numbering, cross-referencing, grammar, punctuation or
typographical errors or revisions to format in a manner that does not change
the intent of a regulation; or
b) Adding or revising technical information on maps or schedules that does not
affect the zoning of lands.
2.16 Transition: Minor Variances
All applications approved by the Township of Huron-Kinloss Committee of Adjustment
under Section 45 of the Planning Act prior to the date this by-law was passed remain
effective for a further 24-month period provided all the conditions of the approval are
met.
Any minor variance applications approved under the previous Zoning By-law remain in
effect where conditions of the approval remain met.
