Text Amendment – Daycare Centre

Description

The City is considering a text amendment to the St. John’s Development Regulations, that would amend the Daycare Centre regulations to bring them more in line with the requirements and terminology used by the Province, allow Family Child Care Services (a daycare within a home) as a Permitted Use within various residential zones, and allow Daycare Centre as a Permitted Use in various commercial and institutional zones. Further, the City is considering removing Daycare Centre from zones that do not have municipal water. This includes the Rural Residential (RR) Zone and the Rural Village (RV) Zone.
