Purpose and Effect of Application for Consent:
The intent of the application is to facilitate two lot additions which will result in a more symmetrical lot configuration. No new development is proposed as part of this application.
The proposed lands to be severed are approximately 0.43 ha (1.06 ac) in area. One part of the lands to be severed (0.41 ha (1.01 ac)) is currently used as a vehicular access from Trillium Line to the business on the lot to be enlarged, and the other part of the lands to be severed (242.8 m2 (2,613.5 ft2)) is vacant.
The application proposes to convey the lands to be severed to the adjacent existing 1.5 ha (3.7 ac) ‘Special Agri-business (AB-19)’ parcel located at 454500 Trillium Line South resulting in an enlarged parcel of approximately 1.93 ha (4.76 ac).
The lot to be enlarged has frontage on Trillium Line and contains a single detached dwelling, detached garage, grain elevator, and a number of agricultural buildings (e.g. grain bin, feed tank).
It is proposed that the lot to be retained will be approximately 41.1 ha (101.4 ac). It is currently being used for agricultural uses (crops) and this use will be maintained.
The subject property is legally described as Lot 6, Con 2, West Oxford, S of King’s Hwy 401 except A15426 & Pt 141R2866. The subject property is located on the east side of Trillium Line, lying between Curry Road and Highway 401.
