3. Approval of Agenda
Council approved the agenda for the July 9, 2024 meeting. A procedural rule was also suspended to allow a report about Apps' Mill Nature Centre (RPT-0374-24) to be considered, as it is not a Planning Act matter.
Approve ZBA9-24-HH: Rezone 138 Langford Church Road from Agriculture (A) to Special Exception Agriculture (A-196)
5.1. Delegation – James Webb re: 61 Bethel Road Zoning By-law Amendment (By-law 61-24)
James Webb from Panattoni appeared before Council to provide background information on a proposed zoning change for 61 Bethel Road. Council received the delegation as information.
Approve ZBA8-24-DN: Rezone 1318 Colborne Street West from Agricultural (A) to Light Industrial (M2) and Agricultural Special Exemption
10.1. RPT-0320-24 – Zoning By-law Amendment Application ZBA9-24-HH – 138 Langford Church Road
Council considered a request to rezone a portion of land at 138 Langford Church Road from standard Agricultural to a Special Exception Agricultural zone. The purpose was to officially recognize an existing farm parcel that is smaller than normally required (22.4 hectares instead of the minimum 40 hectares). Council approved the application.
Approve ZBA7-24-HH: Rezone 19 King Street South from Agricultural (A) to Special Exception-Suburban Residential (SR-62 & SR-63) and Natural Heritage (NH1)
10.2. RPT-0303-24 – Zoning By-law Amendment Application ZBA8-24-DN – 1318 Colborne Street West
Council considered a rezoning application for land at 1318 Colborne Street West, proposing to change part of the land from Agricultural to Light Industrial to allow future industrial development, and to recognize the remaining portion as an undersized agricultural parcel following a future severance. Councillor Howes declared a conflict of interest and did not participate. The application was approved.
10.3. RPT-0323-24 – Zoning By-law Amendment Application ZBA7-24-HH – 19 King Street South
Council approved a rezoning application for 19 King Street South, changing the land from Agricultural to Suburban Residential and Natural Heritage zones. The approval allows for smaller lot frontages to facilitate future lot adjustments, permits the continued operation of an existing contractor's yard, and establishes a natural heritage protection buffer on the property.
14. In Camera – Apps' Mill Nature Centre (RPT-0374-24)
Council moved into a closed (In Camera) session to discuss a proposed or pending acquisition or disposition of land related to Apps' Mill Nature Centre. This portion of the meeting was confidential and details are recorded in the separate In Camera minutes.

Council passed five by-laws in three readings: four zoning amendments corresponding to the properties at 61 Bethel Road, 138 Langford Church Road, 1318 Colborne Street West, and 19 King Street South, plus a confirmatory by-law to confirm the proceedings of the meeting.
