The Corporation of the Town of Milton has received a Zoning By-law Amendment application requesting the removal of a Holding (H) symbol. An “H” holding symbol is a mechanism to ensure that certain conditions are met prior to the development of the lands proceeding in accordance with the approved Zoning. If the conditions are met, the Town is required to remove the holding symbol upon application by the landowner, by passing a By-law under Section 36 of the Planning Act. Council intends to pass an amending by-law to Zoning By-law 016-2014, as amended, at its regular meeting scheduled on April 15, 2024 at 7:00 p.m.
The meeting will be held both in person in the Council Chambers of the Municipal Offices, 150 Mary Street, Milton and using electronic video conference technology.
Purpose and effect
The purpose and effect of the application is to remove the "H80" Holding Provision as the following conditions have been satisfied:
- The owner agrees to demonstrate to the Regional Municipality of Halton that local water services are in place and viable for the site at 7472 Fifth Line. Through the related Site Plan Control process (SP-34/22), the owner shall contact the Regional Services Permit Section for review and approval of the proposed servicing, to obtain a Regional Services Permit, and pay all necessary fees.
- The owner submits to the Regional Municipality of Halton Region an environmental audit which indicates that the environmental condition of the site is suitable for the proposed land use and any supplementary remediation/risk assessments to ensure there are no inherent contaminations within the lands prior to any site alteration.
The owner is required to comply with Ontario Regulation 153/04 and Halton’s Protocol for Reviewing Development Applications with respect to Contaminated or Potentially Contaminated Sites.
Appeal process
Appeal rights are accorded only to the owner of the subject lands with respect to the removal of a Holding Provision and, as such, there are no third party rights of appeal for the removal thereof.
