The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington
By-law 2023-014
Being a by-law to delegate authority to the Director of Planning and Infrastructure
Services.
Whereas Sections 23.1 to 23.5 of the Municipal Act, 2001, authorize municipalities to
delegate powers and duties under the Municipal Act, 2001, or any other Act subject to
certain restrictions and reporting requirements;
Whereas the Planning Act allows certain functions to be delegated to a municipal
Official;
Whereas Official Plan Amendment Number 132 have been approved in order to
delegate such authority;
Whereas, arising out of PDS-008-23, Council deems it necessary to make changes to
the delegation by-law;
Now therefore the Council of the Municipality of Clarington amend By-law 2001-072 to
include:
1. Approval of by-laws of a minor nature under s. 34 of the Planning Act with
respect to:
a) A by-law to remove a holding symbol;
b) a by-law to authorize the temporary use of land, buildings or structures in
accordance with s. 39(1) of the Planning Act; and
c) a housekeeping by-law for the purpose of making clerical or other
changes to assist in the interpretation of a zoning by-law
General
For the purpose of subsection 23.2( 4) of the Municipal Act, 2001, it is the opinion of
Council that any legislative powers delegated pursuant to this By-law are of a minor
nature.
In the event of any inconsistency between this By- law and any other Municipal By- law,
the provision that more effectively delegates authority prevails to the extent of the
inconsistency.
This By- law is effective on the date of its passing.
Passed in Open Council this 13t" day of March, 2023.
