Public Presentations

Marie Vieira, Victor Vieira and Steve Mayer

RE: Site Specific Zoning Amendment for 6954 6th Concession Road

Marie Vieira on behalf of herself and Victor Vieira explained that she is a concerned resident whose property abuts to Mr. Anber's property. She posed several questions to Council regarding current setbacks and fire safety measures. She stated that the storing of fireworks on Mr. Anber's property negatively affects her property value and safety. She proposed that Mr. Anber only be allotted four months to reduce his current supply and safely transport the remainder of fireworks to a new location.

Rita Jabbour, Manager, Planning Services explained that setbacks between storage containers and any neighbouring building are federally regulated. She noted that at its Special Council Meeting of March 28, 2022 it was noted by Mr. Anber the distance between the neighbouring dwellings and the shipping containers was 300 metres and the federal regulation require at least 59 metres.

Steve Mayer explained that when the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation (MPAC) accesses his property and other neighbouring properties, the properties would be classified as properties beside commercial property therefore decreasing the property value.

Planning-2022-12

RE: Site Specific Zoning Amendment for 6954 6th Concession Road

Planning Report-2022-12 (as moved from  as Item 10.10 on the Agenda.)

Ms. Jabbour advised that it was administrations recommendation going forward to permit the storage of professional display fireworks at 6954 6th Concession Road but in a maximum of twelve (12) storage containers and that a temporary by-law be considered to allow for a temporary period of one (1) year to allow for the ongoing storage of consumer fireworks in the ten (10) existing storage containers.

Council further deliberated on the Site Specific Zoning Amendment for 6954 6th Concession Road.

Councilor Garon asked about the federal regulations relating to issuing licenses for the storage of fireworks. Ms. Jabbour advised that the federal ministry responsible for regulating this area was contacted and administration was advised that Mr. Anber’s operations at 6954 6^th Concession Road currently meet all related federal regulations.  

Council did not move the recommended actions by Administration.

During the deliberations administration further advised Council that the current temporary zoning permission by-law allowing for the storage of fireworks at 6954 6th Concession is for three years set to expire and based on the Planning Act this by-law cannot exceed three years. Administration further advised Council that instead of an extension Council could potentially look at or consider a new temporary zoning by-law allowing for the said use for a period not to exceed four months.

Mr. Anber was asked by the Mayor if 1) he had given consideration to leasing a appropriate property (noting that Mr. Anber had indicated he had not been able to find other suitable land for the storage thereof and 2) if he had looked at splitting and lowering the current concentration of 12 existing containers over 2-3 other locations of the property. Mr. Anber replied that finding even a lease of land has not been feasible because despite meeting all safety concerns, it was still exceeding difficult to find other properties willing to sell or lease for the purposes of his fireworks storage operations.

  Administration during discussion on the motion then advised Council of what the applicable appeal timelines would be if Council made a decision on the application and it was noted that upon a valid appeal being file with the Land tribunal any decision made by Council and further action upon that decision would be deferred until such time as the land tribunal made a decision on that filed appeal.
