Planning Department


PURPOSE:

To provide professional advisory services to Council, Committees, staff and ratepayers respecting development, planning and environmental matters, in an efficient and effective manner.

 

The Planning Department provides advice to Council and Committees relating to:

•  Long range planning issues, such as the Official Plan and lake plans

•  Applications before the Committee of Adjustment regarding consents (severances) and minor variances

•  Applications before Council regarding by-law

   amendments to either the Development Permit By-law (04-180) or the Comprehensive Zoning By-law (04-181) property-specific variations to the Development Permit, plans of subdivision, and site plan approval.

 

The Planning Department provides advice to landowners relating to development proposals for their property, and whether the proposal conforms to the Official Plan or either of the Township by-laws.  If a landowner is considering either developing or re-developing their property, or submitting a planning application, they are encouraged to first contact the Planning Department by providing:

  • a brief letter describing the proposal;

  • a survey sketch showing all structures on the property to scale ( a hand drawn sketch is acceptable but must be to scale), as well as show natural versus cleared lawn areas within 50 ft of shore (if applicable);

  • a list of all structures with their square footage identified; and

  • if applicable, photos of the shoreline (preferably taken in the summer).
