Site Plan Control

Meet with Township staff and applicable agencies to discuss the proposed development and determine submission requirements.

Fill out the required Site Plan Application Form.

Site Plan Application fees are as follows:

• Minor Application: $771.00
• Major Application: $1,541.00

Submit your completed application along with the applicable fee.
Note that fees may also be required by external agencies.

Please note that the approval of Minor and Major Site Plan applications is at the discretion of the Township. All applications will be reviewed in accordance with local regulations and planning guidelines.

Planning staff will review the application against the Official Plan and Zoning By-Law. The proposal is circulated to internal departments (Building, Fire, Roads, Drainage) and external agencies (Conservation Authority, County, etc.).

Township staff present a site plan for the Chief Administrative Officer (CAO), detailing findings and any recommended conditions of approval.

The CAO, who has delegated authority from Council, makes a decision on the application and any conditions for approval.

A binding Site Plan Agreement is prepared between the applicant and the Township. This agreement is authorized by the CAO and Mayor may be registered on title.

If the Township does not approve the site plan within 60 days of submission, or if the applicant disagrees with conditions imposed, an appeal may be filed with the Ontario Land Tribunal (OLT).

Once the Site Plan is approved and the agreement is signed/registered, the applicant may apply for the required building permits and begin construction.
