NOTICE OF PUBLIC MEETING for a Proposed Zoning By-law Amendment

TAKE NOTICE a proposed Zoning By-law Amendment application has been received affecting the
property described above. The application was deemed complete on February 19, 2026 pursuant to
Section 34 (12) of the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, amended.

Purpose and Effect: The subject application is proposing to rezone the subject lands from Special
Mitchell Residential Medium Density Zone Three (R3-1) to Special Mitchell Residential High-Density Zone
(R4-21). The site-specific provisions being requested are as follows:

If a person or public body does not make oral submissions at a public meeting, or make written
