AMENDMENT NO. 21
1. PURPOSE
The purpose of the official plan amendment is to change the land use designation for
1,738 m2 (0.4 acres) of land from "Institutional" to "Residential" in the Official Plan of the
Municipality of Bayham, which would facilitate a change in zoning on the same lands
from an Institutional (I) Zone to a Village Residential (R1) Zone in the Municipality of
Bayham Zoning By-law. The amendment is intended to accommodate a change in use
of a former museum to a residential dwelling in an existing building.
2. LOCATION
The area affected by this amendment is a rectangular parcel of land located on the east
side of Snow Street and the south side of Fulton Street in the Village of Vienna and
known municipally as 14 Snow Street.
3. BASIS OF THE AMENDMENT
The subject lands are characterized as an underutilized institutional use, formerly used
as a museum. Due to the closing of the museum and the lack of demand for institutional
uses in Vienna and surrounding areas the lands have been sold for residential use. The
proposed redesignation of the subject lands would meet the intent of Section 4.5.2.2 that
supports residential intensification in villages on underutilized lots in residential
designations with full services. Furthermore, the proposed meets the intent of Section
4.2.4.1 that encourages intensification and redevelopment in settlement areas on
underutilized sites in order to efficiently utilize designated settlement area land and
available municipal services. Based on the above sections the proposed changes are
consistent with the Official Plan.
The application is deemed to be in accordance with the Provincial Policy Statement
2014 (PPS) and the Official Plan of the County of Elgin. PPS Section 1.1.3 indicates that
settlement areas shall be the focus of growth and development, and that regeneration
shall be promoted. The proposed amendment is consistent with the PPS based on
promoting growth and intensification where infrastructure exists within a settlement area.
Elgin County Official Plan Section C1.1 encourages the enhancement of the character
and identity of existing residential areas and promotes the efficient use of existing
infrastructure. The proposed redesignation to residential would enhance the character of
the area, by ensuring the maintenance and continued use of the existing building. It
would also create intensification in an area with existing infrastructure in an existing built
up area.
