Cobourg, ON (August 14, 2023) – The Town of Cobourg has received a complete application for a Zoning By-law Amendment for properties located at 867, 869 and 879 William Street.

The Zoning by-law Amendment Application proposes to introduce a one to two storey, back-to-back townhouse development consisting of 11 dwelling units and 17 parking spaces. One vehicular access is proposed off William Street. The Town has also received a related Site Plan Control application which is required to implement the technical details of the proposal.

A public meeting will be held regarding the Zoning By-law Amendment on Monday, August 28, 2023 at 5 p.m. in the Council Chambers, 3rd Floor East Wing, Victoria Hall, 55 King Street West. All interested members of the public are welcome to attend.    

What is a Zoning By-law Amendment:
A Zoning By-law, is a legally enforceable document that controls the use of land within a community. Using a series of land use zones and labels, it generally spells out:

  • How land and buildings may be used;
  • Where buildings and other structures may be located; and,
  • What restrictions may be related to the development of a specific property.

The Town of Cobourg Comprehensive Zoning By-law #85-2003 maps out each geographic area of the town into a series of land use zones and labels to clearly identify how specific land and properties can be developed.

Significant changes to land use or zone regulations require a Zoning By-law Amendment application. If approved, a Zoning By-law Amendment allows an applicant to alter the current approved use of their property, without the Town of Cobourg requiring a complete rewrite of the Town’s Comprehensive Zoning By-law.

For questions or additional information regarding the application, please contact the Planning and Development Division at 905-372-1005 or planninginfo@cobourg.ca
