Original proposal
Proposal details
Two easements are proposed for access purposes for the benefit of six (6) cottage owners on the south west shore of Rugby Lake. No water access is available as there is no public landing to the lake.
The first easement is described under Application 60-C-213865, ERO 019-5136.
The second easement under Application 60-C-213626, is to continue the easement for another 500 metres to Rugby Lake Road 1 where the second private road /easement is located over PIN 42058-0006 which runs east to west. The private road known as Rugby Lake Road 1 is an existing private road, approximately 8 metres wide by 700 metres long. It will connect to another private road (north/south) with easement agreements in place that access two other properties to the north.
The new proposed easements will be maintained by the current landowners committee who use the roads. The subject lands are located approximately 14.7 km north west of the City of Dryden.
