Introduction by the Chair

 

The meeting being held tonight is a public meeting held under the Planning Act.  


Notice of Collection – Personal information collected as a result of the public meetings are collected under the authority of the Planning Act and will be used to assist in making a decision on this matter. Persons speaking at the meeting are requested to give their name and address for recording in the minutes. All names, addresses, opinions and comments may be collected and may form part of the minutes which will be available to the public. Additionally, interested members of the public can email the Committee Clerk or the assigned planner if they wish to be notified regarding a particular application.  Questions regarding this collection should be forwarded to the Director of Planning Services.    


Tonight’s meeting is to consider public meeting reports. These reports do contain a staff recommendation and the recommendation is typically to approve (with conditions) or to deny.  After the planner’s presentation, Committee members will be able to ask questions of staff, followed by members of the public. Following the question-and-answer period, this Committee then makes a recommendation on the applications to City Council who has the final say on the applications.  


Following Council decision, notice will be circulated in accordance with the Planning Act. If a person or public body would otherwise have an ability to appeal the decision of the Council of the Corporation of the City of Kingston to the Ontario Land Tribunal but the person or public body does not make oral submissions at a public meeting or make written submissions to the City of Kingston before the by-law is passed, the person or public body is not entitled to appeal the decision.
