Crome, MCIP, RPP, Director of Planning Services DATE: 10 February 2012 RE: REPORT PSD- 011 -12 COPA 2009 -0001 Kearns — RV Storage Business on Courtice Road FILE NO,s: COPA 2009 -0001 AND ZBA 2009 -0001 On Monday February 6, 2012, Committee considered, and recommended approval of the referenced report to permit an Outdoor of Recreational Vehicle Storage Business at 3424 Courtice Road. The third recommendation of the report dealt with approving the rezoning application submitted by the Kearns. Following the meeting it was recognized that the recommendation did not contain a provision allowing a Zoning By -law to remove the "Holding (H)" provision to go directly to Council once the applicant's had entered into site plan approval. The addition of a sentence to that effect would eliminate the need for a future report to Council at such time the applicant's have entered into a site plan agreement with the Municipality. It is recommended that Item 3 of Report 1 in the Council agenda for Monday February 13 be modified to add the following wording at the end of the third recommendation: "and that a By -law to remove the "Holding (H) be forwarded to Council for approval once a site plan agreement has been executed' Recommendation 3 of PSD - 011 -12 would then read as follows: "THAT the application for a Zoning By -law Amendment submitted by Timothy and Sandra Kearns as contained in Attachment 3 of PSD- 011 -12 be approved and that a By -law to remove the "Holding (H) be forwarded to Council for approval once a site plan agreement has been executed;" a-I&Y David J.
