By-law 2026-081: A by-law to amend Zoning By-law 2016-040 (permitted uses on 42 Tamsin Street)

This by-law amends Zoning By-law 2016-040 to update the rules for a specific property at 42 Tamsin Street.

Purpose

The main goal is to rezone a residential property to allow for a home-based business that supports the new immigration strategy. This change gives the property owner the right to run a small business from the home without needing a separate commercial zone.

What it does

The by-law adds a permitted use to the zoning schedule for 42 Tamsin Street. It outlines the conditions under which the business can operate, ensuring it stays within residential neighbourhood standards. The amendment applies only to this specific address and does not change the zoning rules for the rest of the area.

Who it applies to

This rule applies directly to the owner and occupant of 42 Tamsin Street. If you plan to use the property for this home-based business, you must follow the conditions set out in the amended by-law. Other residents in the neighbourhood are not affected by this change.

Fines and penalties

While this by-law itself does not list specific fines, all properties in Wrenford must follow the Zoning By-law 2016-040. If a property owner ignores the zoning rules, the City can issue a ticket under the Municipal Act, 2001. Fines for zoning violations are handled through the Provincial Offences Court.

When it takes effect

This by-law took effect immediately when Council passed it on June 22, 2026. You can find the full text of the decision in the minutes from the Council meeting, June 22, 2026.

Amendments and copies

This by-law amends Zoning By-law 2016-040 only. It does not repeal any previous laws. A certified copy of this by-law is available for review at the Clerk's office, located at Wrenford City Hall, 100 Mercer Street. You can also view the full by-law through the online by-law search portal.
