Public Notice
Annual Valve Operating Program
The City of Orillia Environmental Services Department will be conducting
the annual valve operating program over the next few months. This
involves locating and operating watermain valves within the City’s
water distribution system. This preventive maintenance measure is
necessary to ensure that valves are operational and functional in the
event of a failure for isolation purposes.
Advance notice to the public concerning exact work location and
schedule cannot feasibly be provided. During the operating procedure,
poor pressure and/or “red” water may result. This situation is
temporary. The discoloured water is not hazardous but, if detected,
the public is requested to simply open their cold water taps in order
to clear the system.
For more information, please call the Environmental Services
Department at 705-329-7249.

CITY OF ORILLIA NOTICE OF PUBLIC MEETING
FOR ZONING BY-LAW AMENDMENT
TAKE NOTICE that the Council of the Corporation of the City of Orillia will hold a Public
Meeting on Monday, March 9, 2015 at 6:15 p.m. in the Council Chambers, Orillia City Centre,
50 Andrew Street South, to consider an application by Mr. Richard Kidd (Agent: Ms. Joan Perry)
for a proposed Zoning By-law Amendment (File No. D14-814) pursuant to the Planning Act as
follows:
Description of Land:
The subject property is located on the east side of Sundial Drive between Hughes Road and
Galley Avenue and is known municipally as 434 Sundial Drive.
Purpose and Effect of the Zoning By-law Amendment:
The subject property is designated “Living Area – Stable Neighbourhood” under the City of
Orillia’s Official Plan.
The subject property is currently zoned “Second Density Residential” (R2) under the existing
Zoning By-law 2005-72, as amended, and “Residential Two” (R2) under the new Zoning By-law
2014-44, as amended.
The Zoning By-law Amendment application proposes to rezone the property to “Fourth Density
Residential Exception” (R4-X) under Zoning By-law 2005-72, as amended, and to “Residential
Three Exception” (R3-X) under Zoning By-law 2014-44, as amended, to legally recognize the
existing three (3) storey, three (3) unit Dwelling, subject to site-specific performance standards.
Related Applications:
No other related Planning Act applications have been received for the subject lands at this time.
Information Available:
Additional information and material relating to the proposal is available for review during
business hours, in the Development Services Department, Orillia City Centre, 3rd Floor,
50 Andrew Street South, Orillia, Ontario. For further information, you may also contact
Jeff Duggan at (705) 325-2171 [email protected] during normal business hours.
Oral and Written Submissions – Appeal:
If a person or public body does not make oral submissions at a Public Meeting or does not
make a written submission to the Council of the Corporation of the City of Orillia before the
proposed Zoning By-law Amendment is passed, the person or public body is not entitled
to appeal the decision of the Council of the Corporation of the City of Orillia to the Ontario
Municipal Board.
If a person or public body does not make oral submissions at a Public Meeting, or does not
make a written submission to the Council of the Corporation of the City of Orillia before the
proposed Zoning By-law Amendment is passed, the person or public body may not be added
as a party to the hearing of an appeal before the Ontario Municipal Board unless, in the opinion
of the Board, there are reasonable grounds to do so.
Individuals who make written submissions should be aware that their submission and any
personal information in their correspondence will become part of the public record and made
available to the Applicant, Committee and Council.

Retail Business Holidays Act
Under the Retail Business Holidays Act, the City of Orillia has a by-law
that allows smaller businesses to be open on all statutory holidays except
Christmas Day, New Year’s Day, Good Friday and Easter Sunday.
Larger stores that have 2,400 square feet of retail space or more and
employing four or more employees are not covered under the general
by-law and must make a separate application to the City. A number of
larger businesses have done this. The process takes a minimum of sixty
(60) days and includes submitting an application to Council, with a $79
fee, a Public Meeting with thirty (30) days public notice, the consideration
of a by-law and, if passed, a thirty-day appeal period.
If you are the owner or operator of a larger store and require further
information, please contact Janet Nyhof, Deputy Clerk at the Orillia City
Centre at 705-325-2108.
