Notice of Passing of ZBA No. 378 at Vacant Land South East of Bevel Line

Leamington Council held a public meeting on July 28, 2026 to consider Zoning By-law Amendment (ZBA) No. 378. The application was approved, and By-law No. 72-26 to amend Zoning By-law 890-90, as amended, was passed by Leamington Council.

The purpose and effect of ZBA 378 is to amend Zoning By-law No. 890-09, as amended, to rezone the subject lands from a residential Zone (Re-21(h)) to a Residential Zone (R3-27(h)) to permit the following site-specific relief:

• an increase in the maximum lot coverage for semi-detached dwellings from 50% to 55%;
• a reduction in the minimum interior side yard setback for semi-detached dwellings from 1.5 metres to 1.21 metres;
• the removal of the provision requiring that each semi-detached dwelling unit shall have a front yard setback a minimum of 0.5 metres greater or lesser than the abutting dwelling unit, for all semi-detached dwellings on the subject lands; and
• the removal of the provision requiring that each single unit attached (townhouse) dwelling unit shall have a front yard setback a minimum on 0.5 metres greater or lesser than the abutting dwelling unit, for all single unit attached (townhouse) dwellings on the subject lands.

Only individuals, corporations and public bodies may appeal a by-law to the Ontario Land Tribunal. A notice of appeal may not be filed by an unincorporated association or group. However, a notice of appeal may be filed in the name of an individual who is a member of the association or the group on its behalf.

No person or public body shall be added as a party to the hearing of the appeal unless, before the by-law was passed, the person or public body made oral submissions at a public meeting or written submissions to the council or, in the opinion of the Tribunal, there are reasonable grounds to add the person or public body as a party.

Notwithstanding the above, subsection 34(19) of the Planning Act defines the parties that are eligible to appeal the decision to the Ontario Land Tribunal.
