TAKE NOTICE that the Council of the Corporation of the VILLAGE
OF BLYTH will hold a public meeting on Tuesday, May 19,1992 at
7:00 p.m. in the Council Chambers, Municipal Office to consider a
proposed Zoning By-law Amendment under Section 34 of the
Planning Act, 1983.
The proposed Zoning By-law Amendment would change the
zoning on two properties (see map below):
1. Pt. Lot 37 & 38, R.P. 168 (Drummond St.) It is proposed to
change the zoning from 'Residential Low Density (R1)* to
'Residential Low Density-Status (R1-4)' to recognize a semi
detached dwelling.
2. Pt. Lot 1, R.P. 169 (at South East corner of Dinsley & Mill
Streets). It is proposed to change the zoning from 'Residential
Low Density (R1)* to 'Residential Low Density-Status (R1-5)' to
recognize an existing clinic and accessory dwelling unit.
This amendment also proposes to add a title separation provision
to the R2 ('Residential Medium Density) zone which would allow
title separation for semidetached dwellings In certain conditions.
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.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION relating to the proposed Zoning By
law Amendment is available for Inspection between 9:00 a.m. and
5:00 p.m. at the Blyth Municipal Office.
DATED AT THE VILLAGE OF BLYTH
THIS 27th DAY OF April, 1992.

Clerk, Village of Blyth

By-law -1992 has the following purpose and effect:
1. By-law -1992 changes the zoning on:
1. Pt. Lot 37 & 38, R.P. 168 (Drummond St.). It is proposed to
change the zoning from 'Residential Low Density (R1)' to
'Residential Low Density-Status (R1-4)* to recognize a semi
detached dwelling. Any future title separation could comply with
the proposed addition of Section 8.2.2.16. This corrects an
oversight in the by-law.
2. Pt. Lot 1, R.P. 169 (at'South East corner of Dinsley & Mill
Streets). It is proposed to change the zoning from 'Residential
Low Density (R1)' to 'Residential Low Density-Status (R1-5)* to
recognize an existing clinic and accessory dwelling unit. The 2
off-street parking spaces are recognized and any further
expansion would have to comply with the parking provisions in
the Village by-law. This addresses an appeal to the by-law. This
amendment also proposes to add a title separation provision to
the R2 ('Residential Medium Density) zone which would allow title
separation for semi-detached dwellings in certain conditions. The
separation could give distinct ownerships to the various dwelling
units by lot lines in production of the lines of party walls,
providing that the aggregate continues to comply with the
requirements of this by-law and each unit has a minimum of 10
metres frontage on a street and each unit has the required parking
on the parcel containing the unit. This adds a clarification to the
by-law.
This by-law amends zoning by-law 17-1991.
