48-54 Victoria Road South,…

48-54 Victoria Road South, Guelph. I am writing to you as I am encouraged and support the government’s introduction of the More Homes Built Faster Act, which takes bold action to advance the province’s plan to address the housing crisis by building 1.5 million homes over the next 10 years.
I am asking to change the “Industrial” zoning outlined in the City of Guelph’s Official Plan 80 by proposing mixed commercial/mid high rise development to meet the density and intensification targets
This 3/4 acre parcel of land does not have any encumbrances or constraints based on the City of Guelph Official Plan outlined as follows:
1. Schedule 1A: Urban Structure – Built up area – (see building example)
2. Schedule 2: Land Use Plan - Industrial (change to Mixed Commercial and high rise development)
3. Schedule 3: Development Constraints – No Constraints
4. Schedule 4: Natural Heritage System – Not part of the Natural Heritage System
5. Schedule 5: Road and Rail Network – Road access - on the corner of Victoria Road and Elizabeth
6. Schedule 6: Open Space System – Trail Network
7. Schedule 7A & 7B: Source Water Protection – No Wellhead Protection or Contributing Issue areas

I am supportive of Ontario’s initiative and want to ensure that this direction is adopted. I am committed to working with Ontario to ensure that the best solution is implemented and provides value to all stakeholders and elicit your support to ensure that our voice is heard and our feedback taken into account.
Thank you for your commitment, and I look forward to receiving a response from you.
