BACKGROUND AND COMMENT:
At the May 27th 1985 meeting of Council by Council resolution #C-302-85
I
Gwen Woodcock's request to have the old Blacksmith's shop in Tyrone
designated as an historic building was referred to the Chief
Administrative Officer for investigation and a report to the General
Purpose and Administration Committee.
Staff checked with the L.A.C.A.C. Committee who have indicated that they
would encourage the designation of the Blacksmith's shop as an
historic building. Ms Woodcock also indicated in her letter that she
wished to sever the Blacksmith's shop from the residual of her property.
Staff would have difficulty in supporting such a severance for a number
of reasons.

ADMIN. 41 - 85
The hamlet of Tyrone development plan suggests that such a use could be
permitted without an amendment to the plan, provided the proposed use
would have no adverse effect upon existing uses in the surrounding lands.
As such on site parking should be provided. It will be difficult to have
a lot size that can accommodate adequate off street parking. In addition,
the creation of an undersize lot could pose long term problems from a
public health perspective. Ms Woodcock may wish to discuss these
problems with Planning staff and Health Department officials prior to
taking any further action.
A final matter mentioned in Ms Woodcock's letter was the possibility of
financial assistance. The designation of the building as an historic site
will, under the current circumstances, open the door for Ms Woodcock to
request financial assistance through Provincial sources. However, the
Town itself has not made a practise of granting any monies for the
restoration of private buildings.
All of which is respectfully submitted,
David Johnston, M.C.I.P.,

Further to your request of May 16, 1985, I would note the
following for your information and response to Miss Woodcock.
The subject property is designated "Existing Residential" within
the Hamlet of Tyrone Development Plan and appropriately zoned
"RH-Residential Hamlet" in the Town's Comprehensive Zoning By-law
84-63. As noted within Section 3.4.1 of the Hamlet Plan (see
attached), a variety of commercial uses are permitted "which are
considered consistent with and complementary to the character of
the Hamlet and which are intended to meet the needs of either the
residents of the Hamlet or the surrounding rural areas, or the
seasonal tourist trade". Section 3.4.1(ii) states that commercial
development may be permitted to locate within areas designated as
"Existing Residential" without amendments to the Plan provided the
proposed use would have no adverse effect upon the existing use of
surrounding lands or the implementation of this Plan.
Accordingly, Staff would note that a rezoning to an appropriate
commercial zone would have to be obtained to permit the use
proposed.
Staff would note that, inasmuch as the proposal would draw public
attention..."museum type use" or small antique operation,
off-street parking will have to be provided on site for the
anticipated clients of the use. Furthermore, Staff would note
that a more detailed description of the proposed use would have to
be supply with the rezoning application when filed.
I trust the above information will be of assistance.

.1 Policies
(i) Areas designated as "Commercial" on Schedule 1 may
be developed for commercial uses of a size and
character which are considered consistent with and
complementary to the character of the Hamlet and
which are intended to meet the needs of either the
residents of the Hamlet or the surrounding rural
areas, or the seasonal tourist trade. These uses
shall be similar in kind to, but not limited to, the
following:
- general store
- bakeries
- hardware stores
- personal services
- antique stores
- souvenir shops
- butcher shops
- farm implement dealerships
- automobile service stations
- farm related service businesses
Specific provisions outlining maximum leaseable area
and the definition of uses permitted shall be
included within the implementing restricted area
(zoning) by-law.
(ii) Notwithstanding any provision of this plan to the
contrary, commercial development may be permitted to
locate within areas designated as existing
residential on Schedule 1 to this plan, and without
amendment to this plan, provided the proposed use(s)
will have no adverse affects upon the existing use of
surrounding lands or the implementation of this
plan.
(iii) Proposals for commercial development within the
Hamlet shall be assessed on their own merit, bearing
in mind the character of the Hamlet, the existing
commercial uses and the necessity of such 'a use.
(iv) The development or redevelopment of areas for
commercial uses within the Hamlet shall be subject to
suitable zoning and site plan controls.
3.5 INDUSTRIAL .
The only existing industrial land use is a lumber mill
located immediately west of the Hamlet. The historic nature and
character of this use complements the intent of this plan, and it
should be encouraged to continue and should possibly he considered for
designation as a historic site.
