Public Meeting: Aggregate Zoning By-Law Schedule Refinement

As required by the Clarington Official Plan, the Municipality of Clarington has initiated a Zoning By-law Amendment to refine the zoning of multiple aggregate pits.

Once an aggregate pit licence has been surrendered, revoked or its boundaries adjusted, the zoning must be revised to accurately reflect the licence. Accordingly, the proposed amendment modifies the schedules of Zoning By-laws 84-63 and 2005-109. The proposed amendment is administrative in nature, no development or physical site changes are proposed.

A ‘pit’ is defined as a place where unconsolidated gravel, stone, sand, earth, clay, fill, mineral, or other material is being or has been removed by means of an excavation to supply materials for construction, industrial, or manufacturing purposes, but does not include a wayside pit.

A public meeting has been scheduled for this application. Written comments are encouraged to be submitted prior to the public meeting. You can also request to be added to the interested party list to receive updates regarding this application.
