Public Meeting
Date: Tuesday, June 23, 2026
Time: 6:30 p.m.

Overview
A Zoning By-law Amendment Application has been submitted to rezone the Subject Lands, Phases 17 and 19-22, in the Rolling Meadows Secondary Plan area. In July 2023, the City approved revisions to the Draft Plan of Subdivision (previously phases 17-21, now phases 19-22), City File No. D12-04-2022, which was appealed by Hydro One Networks Inc. regarding encroachments into existing Hydro One easement lands. Ontario Land Tribunal (OLT) Decisions 23-000765 and 23-001131 resulted in a revised draft plan dated May 22, 2025 and this Zoning By-law Amendment is required to implement those revisions for Phases 17 and 19-22.
The application was first circulated in April 2025 for parts of Phases 19-22 and has since been updated to include the entirety of Phases 17 and 19-22. Within Phase 17 of the OLT-approved Draft Plan of Subdivision several lots will be rezoned to address lot frontage deficiencies. Within Phases 19-22 a block along the south of the property will be zoned as Future Development (FD) and lands within the Hydro One easement corridor will be zoned Open Space – Parks and Recreation (OS1).
