Notice of Complete Zoning By-law Amendment Application and Public Meeting – 195 and 197 Adelaide Street – February 10, 2026

A public meeting will be held in hybrid format via Zoom on Tuesday, February 10, 2026, at 6 p.m. to consider a proposed Zoning By-law Amendment under Section 34 of the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, Chapter P.13.  

The Municipality of Mississippi Mills has received the following Zoning By-law Amendment request (details below). An attached map identifies the location of the property and the area subject to this application.

File number: D14-115-25

Owner: 11545370 Canada Inc.

Applicant: JP2G Consultants Inc. c/o Kathryn Curry

Legal address: Part of Lot 4, Plan 6262, Henderson Section, Block D, Parts 1 – 5 and 8 of Reference Plan 26R1845 

Municipal address: 195 and 197 Adelaide Street

Ward: Almonte

Location and description of property: The subject property is an irregularly shaped, 2,222 m2 residential ‘T’ shaped lot with frontage on both Adelaide Street and Napier Court. The subject property features an existing semi-detached dwelling and detached garage. Surrounding land uses are residential, with a mix of detached dwellings, semi-detached dwellings, and townhouses. 

Purpose and intent of the zoning by-law amendment: The subject property is split-zoned Residential Second Density (R2) and Development (D) in Zoning By-law #11-83. In October 2025, two consent applications were conditionally approved by Lanark County’s Land Division Committee to create two (2) new residential lots fronting Napier Court, with a zoning amendment required as a condition of approval.

The proposed amendment seeks to rezone the subject property entirely to R2 with site-specific exceptions to allow for the potential future development of a semi-detached dwelling on the severed lots. In the R2 zone, a semi-detached dwelling requires a minimum lot frontage of 10 metres and a minimum lot area of 350 m² per unit. The amendment seeks to reduce these standards to allow a minimum lot frontage of 9 metres and a minimum lot area of 250 m² per unit. 

The amendment also seeks to recognize an undersized lot frontage of 15.24 metres for the existing semi-detached dwelling on the retained lot fronting Adelaide Street, whereas the R2 zone requires a minimum cumulative frontage of 20 metres.
