As of July 1, the [} wording in all new zoning by-laws must be in metric, and this includes amendments. To put more teeth into the requirement that municipalities go metric, the Ministry of Housing has informed local governments that any new zoning by-laws or amendments not in metric measurement after September 1 will be appealed to the Ontario Fy er ns 3 eae Municipal Board by the Ministry of Housing. PE ] The Ministry even says in a letter sent to local ny municipalities this month that printing the correspon- AA ding imperial measure in brackets beside the metric Rigi unit is a no-no, because it is confusing to the reader of ~s £ Gi the by-law and there may be a legal problem of having or ¥ two different measurements for the same provision. \ ide] Nonetheless, for people who are having trouble i ACE ® relating hectares to acres, metres to feet, the Housing ake Ministry recommends that a complete conversion Ti |= 4 table be included for reference at the back of the A RY by-law. ; Since zoning by-laws often contain dozens of pages, it's going to mean a lot of flipping back and forth to find out how many acres in a hectare and so on.
