TAKE NOTICE THAT an application for Official Plan Amendment and Zoning By-law Amendment has been submitted under Section 17, 22, and 34 of the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, Chapter p. 13, as amended, by 2452100 Ontario Inc. for the subject property known locally as 140 Alcona Drive. The subject property is described legally as PLAN 23M958 LOT 1. The subject property is shown on the key map included in this notice.

The purpose and effect of the applications is to amend the Official Plan and Zoning By-law schedules for the subject property.   The western portion of the subject property is currently located within the Open Space designation in the Official Plan and is located within the Environmental Impact (EP) Zone in the Zoning By-law. This portion of the subject property is proposed to be re-designated to the Business Park designation and the Light Industrial (M1) Zone to match the remainder of the subject property.  The portion of the subject property subject to the mapping changes is highlighted on the key map.  The applications would facilitate the use of the subject property for industrial uses.

The Municipality of Sioux Lookout will hold a Statutory Public Meeting on Wednesday, September 20th, 2023, at 5:30 p.m. in Council Chambers at the Municipal Office to consider this application.

If you wish to be notified of the decision of the Municipality of Sioux Lookout in respect of the proposed Official Plan Amendment and/or Zoning By-law Amendment, you must make a written request to the Planning Coordinator of the Municipality (address below).

If a person or public body would otherwise have an ability to appeal the decision of the Municipality of Sioux Lookout to the Ontario Land Tribunal but the person or public body does not make oral submission at a Public Meeting or make written submissions to the Municipality of Sioux Lookout before the Official Plan Amendment is adopted and/or the Zoning By-law Amendment is passed, the person or public body is not entitled to appeal the decision.

If a person or public body does not make oral submissions at a Public Meeting, or make written submission to the Municipality of Sioux Lookout before the Official Plan Amendment is adopted and/or the Zoning By-law is passed, the person or public body may not be added as a party to the hearing of an appeal before the Ontario Land Tribunal unless, in the opinion of the Tribunal, there are reasonable grounds to do so.
