Suggested by-law changes to facilitate the redevelopment of a village in Quebec:

• Modifier les normes de zonage pour astreindre les propriétaires de commerces entraînant des nuisances à installer une clôture et des végétaux opaques entre leur commerce et les résidences limitrophes;

• Par des normes d’usages conditionnels, restreindre les ***usages contraignants*** ou pouvant occasionner certaines nuisances afin d’orienter leur implantation au bon endroit''

Thanks very much.

  -> Thank you, philgoddard. Yes, Daryo has a "proven track record" of placing a "disagree" on my offerings to the askers about 7/8 of the time, which is certainly statistically impossible. So obvious.

5.6.3 OBJECTIF 7.3
Assurer la gestion des impacts liés aux contraintes anthropiques sur les interfaces sensibles et la cohabitation des usages (terrains contaminés, voies de circulation contraignantes, corridor de transport d’énergie, etc.)

Il s’agit principalement de terrains contaminés, de lieux d’élimination de carcasses automobiles, de lignes de transport d’énergie et de voies de circulation à haut débit. Des problèmes de cohabitation découlent des nuisances sonores, visuelles ou olfactives générées par ces usages.
