Tillsonburg council approves 16-unit apartment zoning; housing committee agenda empty

Tillsonburg council approved a series of zoning changes on June 22, 2026, including a 16-unit apartment building addition in the Entrepreneurial District, while two advisory committees held largely procedural sessions over the following two weeks.

Council Meeting — June 22, 2026

Council's most consequential decision was approval in principle of a zone change and official plan amendment for C&A Haight Holdings to allow a 16-unit apartment addition in the Entrepreneurial District. The vote was unanimous. According to the minutes, the approval came despite resident opposition over traffic, privacy, and height concerns.

Council also approved several other zoning and planning matters, all by unanimous vote:

• A zone change for Community Living Tillsonburg at 51 Brock St E to allow a residential unit.
• An approved-in-part zone change for 1917043 Ontario Inc. at 519 Broadway to add studio, office, monument sales, and drugstore uses.
• A minor variance for Bueckert reducing lot frontage to 10.05 m per unit.
• Consent application B26-19-7 for Perovich Holdings.
• Consent applications B26-15-7 and B26-16-7 for Michael Perovich.

Council approved a new pickleball court allocation policy, allowing a maximum of three courts for seasonal contract use while the remainder stay available for community use. Council also approved a new Freedom of Information Request Policy and repealed the old by-law. Both votes were unanimous.

Affordable and Attainable Housing Advisory Committee — June 24, 2026

The committee's agenda contained only procedural boilerplate, with no rezonings, contracts, or other items listed for discussion or decision. Minutes have not yet been published.

Health Care Advisory Committee — July 2, 2026

The committee was scheduled to receive an update on the Tillsonburg Unattached Care Clinic's transition to a permanent Nurse Practitioner-Led Clinic (NPLC) model. The agenda also included adoption of the agenda, disclosures, and approval of previous minutes. Minutes have not yet been published.
