Municipality Of Lakeshore, Notice of Public Meeting/ Complete Application, Zoning By-law Amendment

File Number: ZBA-19-2024
Subject Property: 492 County Road 8 (aerial map is attached to this notice)
Applicants: Greater Essex County District School Board c/o Brad Teichman

Purpose: A provisional consent (file: B-12-2023) was granted from the Lakeshore Committee of Adjustment to sever a 7.15 acre parcel of land from the Subject Property that has 200.1 metres (656.5 feet) of frontage along County Road 8. The parcel of land to be severed currently contains a vacant elementary school.

Part 1 on the attached draft Plan of Survey is the parcel of land to be severed and the plan details the location of the vacant elementary school on that parcel of land. In addition, an aerial photo showing the parcel of land to be severed is attached to this notice.

As a condition of their severance approval from the Committee of Adjustment, the applicants are applying for a Zoning By-law Amendment to rezone the parcel of land that is to be severed. The parcel is currently zoned Major Institutional (I1). The Zoning By-law Amendment will add a holding symbol to the zoning so that only existing uses are permitted on the parcel until the holding symbol is removed, with the condition for removal of the holding symbol being confirmation of servicing and servicing capacity from the Town of Essex and any necessary development approval.
