TAKE NOTICE THAT the Municipality of Sioux Lookout is proposing to amend Zoning By-law 85-18 pursuant to Section 34 of the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, Chapter p. 13, as amended.

The proposed amendment is a housekeeping update to various sections and schedules of the current Zoning By-law. The proposed Zoning By-law Amendment affects all lands within the municipal boundaries of the Municipality of Sioux Lookout, and it is for this reason that a key map has not been included in this notice.

The Municipality of Sioux Lookout will hold a Statutory Public Meeting on Wednesday, August 24th,  2022, at 5:30 p.m. in Council Chambers at the Municipal Office, 25 Fifth Ave. Sioux Lookout, to consider this amendment.

Written comments can be sent to the Planning Coordinator in advance of the Public Meeting. You may also provide verbal comments by calling 807-737-2700 ext. 2234 and the comments will be transcribed and presented at the Public Meeting.  Further, if you wish to participate or speak at the Public Meeting, please contact the Planning Coordinator.  Anyone wishing to provide comments or speak at the meeting must submit their request by phone or email by noon on August 24th in order to attend.

ANY PERSON may attend the Public Meeting and/or make written or verbal representation either in support or in opposition to the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment.

If you wish to be notified of the decision of the Municipality of Sioux Lookout in respect of the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment, you must make a written request to the Planning Coordinator of the Municipality (address below).

If a person or public body would otherwise have an ability to appeal the decision of the Municipality of Sioux Lookout to the Ontario Land Tribunal but the person or public body does not make oral submission at a Public Meeting or make written submissions to the Municipality of Sioux Lookout before the Zoning By-law Amendment is passed, the person or public body is not entitled to appeal the decision.

If a person or public body does not make oral submissions at a Public Meeting, or make written submission to the Municipality of Sioux Lookout before the Zoning By-law is passed, the person or public body may not be added as a party to the hearing of an appeal before the Ontario Land Tribunal unless, in the opinion of the Tribunal, there are reasonable grounds to do so.

Additional information relating to the proposed amendment can be provided at the Development Services Department at the Municipal Office, 25 Fifth Avenue, Sioux Lookout, Ontario, P8T 1A4, from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Monday to Friday.
