Statutory Meeting Zoning Bylaw Amendments to remove minimum residential parking within MTSA lands

The Committee of the Whole is holding a public meeting to consider City-initiated amendments to the City’s Zoning By-law 2020, as amended, pursuant to Section 34 of the Planning Act.

The proposed amendments include an update to remove minimum residential vehicle parking requirements for lands in the:

  • Fairview Street / Plains Road corridor from the Aldershot GO Major Transit Station Area (MTSA) to the Burlington GO MTSA and from Burlington GO MSTA to Appleby GO MTSA.
  • Appleby Line corridor from the Appleby GO MTSA to Highway 407.

City staff were directed by Council to make these changes to support Burlington’s Housing Accelerator Fund Action Plan, and ultimately the creation of more housing in Burlington. This is a pilot initiative in areas served by high frequency transit and could expand to other areas that are well supported by transit.

You are invited to attend a Statutory Public Meeting under the Planning Act to consider the staff report and proposed bylaw. This meeting will be held using a hybrid model, allowing members of Council, City staff and the public the option of participating remotely or in-person at Burlington City Hall, 426 Brant St.
