TAKE NOTICE that the Council of The Corporation of the Township of Greater Madawaska will hold a public meeting on Thursday, June 1st, 2023 at 3:00 p.m., at the Calabogie Community Hall, Township of Greater Madawaska, 574 Mill Street, Calabogie, Ontario, to consider the proposed Comprehensive Zoning Bylaw Update, pursuant to Section 34 of the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, c.P.13.

Location of the Subject Lands
The proposed new Comprehensive Zoning By-law document will apply to all lands within the Township of Greater Madawaska. As such, no Key Map has been provided.

Purpose and Effect of the New Comprehensive Zoning By-law
In 2021, the Township of Greater Madawaska and the Township of Whitewater Region began a joint-effort to consolidate and update their Zoning By-law documents in accordance with recently-approved Provincial policy updates.

In summary, the Zoning By-law regulates how land may be used, where buildings and structures can be located, lot sizes, setback requirements, building heights and parking requirements. In addition to a new text document, the update will also include the introduction of Zoning Schedules (maps) that identify zones across each municipality.

Representation
If a person or public body would otherwise have an ability to appeal the decision of the Council of the Township of Greater Madawaska to the Ontario Land Tribunal but the person or public body does not make oral submissions at a public meeting or make written submissions to the Township of Greater Madawaska before the by-law 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 submissions to the Township of Greater Madawaska before the 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.

If you wish to be notified of the decision of the Township of Greater Madawaska on the proposed zoning by-law amendment and future Comprehensive Zoning By-law, you must make a written request to the person at the address or email address provided below.
