At the same meeting, Council adopted enacted By-laws 233-2020 and 234-2020, which implemented the approved amendments. Technical amendments are required to By-law 234-2020 in order to ensure that building permits can be issued for the development approved by Council. The amendments pertain to additional clarification in By-law 234-2020 in order to specify that floor height dimensions are less than the 4.5 metres required in the current by-law. This discrepancy is due to an interpretation issue regarding measurements made between floor-to-floor (4.5 metres) and floor-to ceiling (4.35 metres). The 15 centimetre difference is considered minor and technical and no changes have been made to the plans approved by Council. This Motion is urgent to ensure the orderly processing of the building permit for a development that has been approved by Council.
