Proposed Development
The application for the subject property has been approved.
The Township of Wilmot is in receipt of an application for an amendment to the Township Zoning By-law. The lands to which the application applies are designated Settlement Core in the Township Official Plan and are zoned Zone 10 (Industrial) within the Township Zoning By-law 83-38, as amended.
The lands were previously home to the New Dundee Creamery which stopped operating in 1998 with all buildings demolished in 2005. The now vacant property consists of six separately conveyable properties. The application proposes to change the zoning to Zone 2a (Residential) to allow development of the lots with single detached dwellings as opposed to industrial uses presently permitted on the property. Site specific regulations are proposed to recognize the existing lot configurations, to increase the setback to a garage to ensure adequate driveway space should a sidewalk be installed in the future, and to increase one side yard setback to provide adequate space to access the rear yard for septic system maintenance. Lands below the regulatory flood elevation are proposed to be zoned Zone 11 (Open Space).
