Notice of passing of a proposed official plan and zoning by-law amendment at 271 Cornwall Road and 485 Trafalgar Road for FCHT Holdings (Ontario) Corporation

Notice of Passing

On Monday, May 16, 2022, Town Council passed By-law 2022-051, which adopted Official Plan Amendment 44, under section 17(23), of the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. P.13, as amended and passed Zoning By-law 2022-052 under section 34 of the Planning Act.

The purpose and effect of these amendments are to permit the development of two mixed use buildings (14 and 19 storeys) containing 317 residential units and 960 metres squared of commercial space. The Official Plan Amendment, if approved, would modify the existing site-specific exception policy to increase the maximum permitted building height from 10 storeys to 14 and 19 storeys. The Zoning By-law Amendment is proposed to implement the proposed development.

The subject land is located at the north-east corner of Cornwall Road and Trafalgar Road.

At this time there are no other applications, under the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. P.13, as amended, pertaining to the subject land.

Council’s decision reflects that the comments from the public have been appropriately addressed.

Any appeals to the proposed official plan amendment or zoning by-law amendment must be filed with the Town Clerk, 1225 Trafalgar Road, Oakville, ON, L6H 0H3, setting out the reasons for the appeal and the specific part of the proposed official plan amendment to which the appeal applies; and must be accompanied by the fee required by the Ontario Land Tribunal. Copies of the appeal forms are available from the Ontario Land Tribunal website.
