Dated at the Municipality of Central Huron this 16th day of May, 2007 Richard Harding, Clerk Administrator, Municipality of Central Huron Box 400 Clinton, ON, NOM 1L0 PURPOSE AND EFFECT The purpose of the proposed zoning by-law amendment is to introduce regulations governing the siting of wind energy facilities (wind turbines) within the Municipality. The types of facilities are defined and the setbacks are established. Setbacks are also established for the construction of sensitive land uses in proximity to wind energy facilities. Commercial scale wind energy facilities (capacity greater than 500kW) are permitted in agricultural zones, subject to a rezoning and site plan control application. Commercial scale wind energy facilities are required to be setback a minimum of 600 metres from urban, recreational and institutional land uses. Small scale wind energy facilities (capacity of 500kW or Tess) are permitted in the agricultural zones as an accessory use, subject to siting requirements. Small scale wind energy facilities (capacity of 50kW or less) are permitted in defined urban zones as an acces- sory use, subject to siting requirements. This by-law amends the following three zoning by-laws: 1. By-law 7-1985 of the former Town of Clinton 2. By-law 16-1987 of the former Township of Hullett 3. By-law 6-1984 of the former Township of Goderich All of these former municipalities are part of the Corporation of the Municipality of Central Huron. This by-law applies to all lands within the Municipality of Central Huron as shown on Schedule A SCHEDULE •A' LOCATION MAP MUNICIPALITY OF CENTRAL HURON '4, ittkis-#A. ii Al yib KIM -'1,1241;:-••1* ''&.':'° - , '4•.:;•;/:',;:iy 4•,-,, * ii: IN11111nn111i..,, li 2gi:,//,�I,/�• ,-,4, .0PrI I/j/j/ Ispl_mplepropme,/, Lel, ' i ,_:� � r.eh;• ; %� ,� s=� s?;: // / ter♦ I/ .�ISZEZZLIMMME119.1 40'Wilifig irsiiiral
