Milton could get more medical clinics in the commercial building at 2800 High Point Drive if a town panel agrees to lower the number of parking spaces the property must provide, from 383 to 338. The owner wants to turn five existing units into clinics.
The Committee of Adjustment and Consent, a town panel that rules on small exceptions to the zoning bylaw, takes up the request on Thursday, Nov. 12.
The five units total 1,236 square metres of floor space. They sit in a building east of Highway 25 and south of James Snow Parkway that already houses offices, medical clinics, a daycare, a restaurant and a commercial school.
A parking study the applicant submitted says that even with the new clinics, the lot would have 12 to 132 spaces to spare.
Town planning and transportation staff say they have no concerns, and the staff report recommends the committee approve the request with conditions. As of Wednesday, Nov. 4, when the report was written, staff had received no comments from the public.
The meeting runs from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. in Council Chambers at Town Hall, 150 Mary Street, where the applicant and anyone interested can take part in person.
The applicant, the minister or a specified person or public body with an interest can appeal the committee's decision to the provincial land tribunal within 20 days of the decision.
