THE CORPORATION OF THE MUNICIPALITY OF SIOUX LOOKOUT

TAKE NOTICE THAT an application for a Zoning By-law Amendment has been submitted under Section 34 of the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, Chapter p. 13, as amended, by Ed Evens on behalf of 2656116 Ontario Inc., for the subject property known locally as 84 King Street. The subject property is described legally as PLAN M220 LOT 174 PCL 8298. The subject property and proposed development are shown on the Key Map and Site Sketch included in this Notice. 

The subject property is currently developed with a two-storey stacked dwelling with a floor area of 165 square metres on the first floor and a floor area of 80 square metres on the second floor. The owner is proposing four new dwelling units within a new separate building (quadruplex) that has a floor area of 76 square metres on each floor, for a total gross floor area of 152 square metres on the subject property.

The PURPOSE AND EFFECT of the Zoning By-law Amendment Application (Z14-2024) is to rezone the subject property from the Downtown Commercial (CD) Zone to a site-specific Residential Type 2 (R2-XX) Zone. The site-specific rezoning is to permit the existing stacked dwelling, a total of ten dwelling units within two separate buildings on the subject property, a reduced rear yard setback for the new proposed building (quadruplex), a reduced exterior side yard setback for the existing stacked dwelling, and a reduction in the required amount of visitor parking.

The subject property is zoned the CD Zone. A site-specific R2-XX Zone is being requested to permit:

• A stacked dwelling as a permitted use. Section 5.2.1 does not permit stacked dwellings as a permitted use.
• Two separate buildings (stacked and quadruplex) containing a total of ten dwelling units. Section 5.2.1 permits only a quadruplex and not an additional separate principal building.
• A reduced exterior side yard setback of 0.5 metres. Section 5.2.2 requires a minimum exterior side yard setback of 5 metres.
• A reduced rear yard setback of 4 metres. Section 5.2.2 requires a minimum rear yard setback of 8 metres; and,
• A reduced visitor parking requirement of nil (0) spaces. Section 4.18.2 requires a minimum of one visitor parking space for a quadruplex dwelling and one visitor parking space for 6 stacked dwelling units.

The Municipality of Sioux Lookout will consider the application at the Statutory Public Meeting on Wednesday, November 20, 2024, at 5:30 p.m. in the Council Chambers at the Municipal Office.
