Description of instrument

Telephone City Aggregates Inc. has requested to amend the approved site plan for this licenced site to allow the replacement of the rehabilitation plan with a draft plan of subdivision (#29T-18504 and #29T-18505).  The approval of this amendment will allow for development of the site to industrial, residential and open-space land uses. 

Other information

Telephone City Aggregates Inc. currently operates this site under the authority of licence #5721 under the ARA. In total 10.93 hectares are currently licenced as a pit. The annual tonnage condition for this licenced site is 363,000 tonnes. The current rehabilitation plan for Licence #5721 permits the final land use as industrial park and/or recreational area. 

Telephone City Aggregates Inc. also currently operates the adjacent sites under the authority of licence #5523 and #5624 under the ARA.

For this proposal, the following are available for viewing at our Ministry’s Guelph District Office:
