One of the important policy projects underway is the updating of our zoning by-laws.  As I have reviewed in previous posts, effort is underway to create a Nobleton specific by-law.  (The current one is a Township wide one dating from 1973); once approved the plan is to re-apply it to the other 2 villages i.e. Schomberg and King City with variation as appropriate in response to the specifics of those villages.  May 16 there will be a public meeting for Nobleton zoning by-law. At time of writing this post, the Staff report is not available but the draft by-law is available for review.  Reading a zoning by-law is not exciting; but it is important in terms of how it regulates what is built in your neighbourhood and how it is built.  Staff report will likely be available about May 11.

At a statutory public meeting the Council does not make decisions; rather it directs Staff on how to proceed.  Usually that direction includes the need to address the questions and comments raised by the public at the Public Meeting.  If you are unable to attend or if you simply prefer, letters/emails can be submitted as input.  Send to Sarah Allin at nobletonzblreview@king.ca.
