You are invited to attend either in-person or virtually on Monday, November 13 at 6:30 p.m. and provide input at this meeting hosted by Planning and Development Council.

Instructions on how to view the meeting or participate in-person, by written submission, videoconference or telephone are provided below.

The Planning Services department will be presenting a recommendation report with respect to this development proposal at this meeting.

The purpose of the application is to amend the site-specific ‘Bronte Road West Lands” policies in Town's Official Plan to permit low density residential on a private road instead of public road and clarify how the minimum transit supportive density target within 400 metres of Bronte Road is applied.

The effect of the application would be to permit redevelopment of part of the ‘Bronte Road West Lands’ with a low density and medium density subdivision consisting of 82 Single-detached dwellings and 86 Townhouse dwellings and one Heritage house.

The subject lands are located on the west side of Regional Road 25 (Bronte Road), north of Highway 403, and south of Upper Middle Road.

This land is also subject to a zoning by-law amendment application (File No. Z.1531.03) and a draft plan of subdivision application (File No. 24T-21009/1531).

If a person or public body would otherwise have an ability to appeal the decision of the Town of Oakville to the Ontario Land Tribunal but the person or public body does not make oral submissions at a public meeting or make written submissions to Council c/o the Town Clerk at the Town of Oakville, Clerk’s department, 1225 Trafalgar Road, Oakville, ON L6H 0H3 (Dropbox is located in front of Town Hall) or at TownClerk@oakville.ca before the official plan amendment is adopted, the person or public body is not entitled to appeal the decision.

If a person or public body does not make oral submissions at a public meeting, or make written submissions to Council c/o the Town Clerk at the Town of Oakville, Clerk’s department, before the proposed official plan amendment is adopted, the person or public body may not be added as a party to the hearing of an appeal before the Ontario Land Tribunal unless, in the opinion of the Tribunal, there are reasonable grounds to do so.

If you wish to be notified of the decision of the Town of Oakville on this matter, you must make a written request to the Town Clerk at the Town of Oakville, Clerk’s department, 1225 Trafalgar Road, Oakville, ON L6H 0H3 or at TownClerk@oakville.ca.
