PART I: THE INTRODUCTION
(This is not an operative part of Official Plan Amendment No. 22)
1.0 BACKGROUND
The intent of this Amendment is to redesignate eight hectares of land from the Mineral Aggregate
Resources designation to the Agricultural designation and to include a specific permission in the
Official Plan to allow for the severance of the lands to be placed in the Agricultural designation
from the balance of the lands, which are designated Mineral Aggregate Resources.
2.0 LOCATION
This Amendment affects 8 hectares (ha) in part of the East Half of Lot 9, Concession 14 (Oro).
3.0 BASIS
The application for Official Plan Amendment was subm itled by Helen Anderson in January 2005.
The purpose of the application is to redesignate a portion of the property from the Mineral
Aggregate Resource designation to the Agricultural designation. Once the lands are
redesignated, the landowner wishes to sever the portion designated Agricultural from the
remainder of the property, which is leased to Stewart Construction and is part of the Hillway Pit #
5 operation.
On the basis of comments received from the Ministry of Natural Resources it has been
determined that it would not be feasible to extract aggregate from the lands proposed to be
redesignated. As a result the redesignation of the lands to Agricultural is deemed to be
appropriate.
With respect to the request to permit the severance of the subject lands from the balance of the
property, it has been determined that such a severance is appropriate since:
. The extraction/washing use on the licensed portion of the property will continue for some
time into the future:
. The licensed portion of the lands and the subject lands are separated by the
TransCanada gas pipeline:
. The severance of the subject lands would have no impact on the ability of existing
mineral resource extraction uses in the area to continue operating or on new operations,
since the severed parcel is currently the site of a dwelling, and no new development is
proposed.
On the basis of the relatively unique circumstances, affecting the lands, the redesignation and
provision for severance represents good planning.
