The Township of Brock has received a Zoning By-law Amendment application to amend the zoning on the lands shown on the attached map. The application has been deemed complete for processing purposes in accordance with the requirements of Section 34 of the Planning Act, R.S.O., 1990.
The Region of Durham has received a related application for a Regional Official Plan Amendment (ROPA-2022-004) to permit the severance of a dwelling surplus to the farming operation as a result of the consolidation of non-abutting farm parcels. A separate public meeting is being held by the Region as part of this application. A Consent application is anticipated to be submitted in the future to facilitate the severance.
Purpose and Effect of the Proposed Application
The purpose of the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment is to rezone the property to recognize the existing dwelling as a rural residential lot to facilitate the severance of a surplus farm dwelling and to rezone the retained farmland so that no further severances or residential uses are permitted. The retained farmland will continue to be farmed as part of a larger farm operation.
Public Meeting
The Council of the Township of Brock is holding a Virtual Public Meeting to provide interested parties the opportunity to learn more about the proposed amendment and make comments before any decisions are made on the application. The application is still under review and no decisions will be made at this meeting. The purpose of this public meeting is to present the proposed application and obtain comments from the public.
