Township Zoning By-law #15-2013

In Ontario, the Planning Act permits the Township to enact a Zoning By-law to control the use of land in the Township. The Zoning By-law sets out where buildings and structures can be located, the types of buildings and structures permitted, how buildings can be used, lot sizes and dimensions, parking requirements, building heights and setbacks. The Zoning By-law also contains zoning maps that set out the zone for each property, for example residential, commercial or agricultural. If a property owner wishes to develop property in a way that is not permitted in the zoning by-law, they may apply for a change in zoning through a zoning by-law amendment or minor variance application.

Frontenac Islands Official Plan, Consolidated 2013

The Frontenac Island Official Plan is an expression of the community’s vision for land use and development at the local level containing the goals, objectives and policies which guide development twenty years into the future. The Plan is intended to assist Council, committees, municipal staff, developers, government agencies and the public in their efforts to maintain and strengthen the environment, economic, cultural and social assets of the Township. The Planning Act requires that municipalities in Ontario adopt an Official Plan that is consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement. The Frontenac Island Official Plan reviewed every few years.

An Official Plan contains policies on:

  • the location of new housing, industry, and commercial areas;
  • what services like roads, community halls and parks will be needed;
  • the growth of the community; and
  • community improvement initiatives.

There are land use schedules with the Township Official Plan that set out the designation of each property.
