Notice of Public Meeting - Zoning By-law Amendment
Subject Property - 233 Grand Trunk Avenue
TAKE NOTICE that pursuant to the requirements of Section 34 of the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. P.13, as amended, the Corporation of the City of Dryden advises that an application for amendment to Comprehensive Zoning By-law No. 2025-10 has been received and was deemed to be a complete application pursuant to the Planning Act.
AND FURTHER, TAKE NOTICE that the Council of the Corporation of the City of Dryden will hold a Public Meeting for the purpose of giving the public an opportunity to make representations in respect of the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment to Comprehensive Zoning By-law No. 2025-10 under Section 34 of the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. P.13, as amended.
The meeting will be held in-person in the Council Chambers and virtually through Microsoft Teams by the Corporation of the City of Dryden Council on Monday, July 27, 2026, at 5:00 p.m.
THE LOCATION of the lands affected by the proposed amendment are municipally known as 233 Grand Trunk Avenue, legally described as CON 6 PT LOT 4 DES AS; 23R7825 PARTS 1 TO 5 REM PCL; 32765. The subject property is shown on the key map included with this Notice.
THE PURPOSE AND EFFECT of the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment is to permit a site-specific Parking Lot use on the subject property to support the adjacent K.K. Penner Tire Centres business. The proposed parking lot would be used as an overflow parking and operational storage area to assist with ongoing business operations.
The amendment would also provide site-specific relief from the Zoning By-law requirement that non-residential parking areas be surfaced with asphalt, concrete, or similar hard-surfaced material. Instead, a crushed stone or gravel surface would be permitted for the parking lot, subject to appropriate grading, drainage, and maintenance. The applicant has indicated that the long-term intention is to redevelop the property with an additional commercial building, which would be subject to any required building, planning, and site plan approvals.
Details on the application and meeting are included in the attached PDF.
