A Zoning By-law amendment application (Application/File: D19 259KEN) has been submitted for a 1138 square metre (12,244 square foot) parcel of land situated on the west side of Kensington Boulevard, approximately 122 metres (400 feet) south of its intersection with Burlington Street (259 Kensington Boulevard) (see Key Map on reverse side for location). The purpose of the proposed amendment is to rezone the property from “Residential Type Two Zone (R2)” to a site-specific “Residential Type Two Zone (R2-9)” in order to facilitate the construction of a two-storey, two-unit dwelling (semi-detached dwelling) and establish site-specific lot provisions. The subject property is designated “Residential” in the Official Plan. 

ANY PERSON may attend the public meeting and/or make written or verbal representation either in support of or in opposition to the proposed Zoning By-law amendment. 

If a person or public body does not make oral submissions at a public meeting or make written submissions to the Corporation of the Town of Tecumseh before the Zoning By-law amendment is passed, the person or public body is not entitled to appeal the decision of the Council of the Corporation of the Town of Tecumseh to the Ontario Land Tribunal. 

If a person or public body does not make oral submissions at a public meeting, or make written submissions to the Corporation of the Town of Tecumseh before the Zoning By-law amendment 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 Ontario Land Tribunal, there are reasonable grounds to do so.
