Application to amend the Official Plan and Westhill District Plan

Changes to the Official Plan for this location are required before a permit can be issued. This means that they submit an application that is reviewed by city planners and other agencies plus city council before anything can be built.

MHBC Planning, on behalf of a group of private landowners in the Westhill District (noted above), has undertaken a study to delineate a new public collector road that will extend from The Boardwalk/Thorndale Drive roundabout to Erb Street West. The study area will be reviewed with consideration given to existing conditions, environmental constraints, servicing networks and transportation needs. A preferred road alignment will be determined along with a master servicing strategy within the study area. The preferred road alignment and servicing network are proposed to be implemented through amendments to the Official Plan and District Plan, as described above.

It is anticipated that plan(s) of subdivision and zoning by-law amendment(s) will be proposed by individual land owners at a later time to physically create the road and address future development in this area.

Official plan changes requested include:

• delineating a new public collector road on Schedule E, Road Classification System, and amending or adding corresponding policies for servicing infrastructure, if and where applicable.

• amending the Westhill District Plan by illustrating a new collector road on Map 1 of the Westhill District Plan, and amending or adding corresponding policies for servicing infrastructure, if and where applicable
