Effects of consultation
Letters of objection were received from Wauzhushk Onigum Nation as a result of the ERO posting 019-5792. Further discussions took place to determine potential adverse impacts to Aboriginal and Treaty rights. As this application is technical in nature, does not create any new development rights, and is consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement, the Ministry approved the application.

Original proposal
Proposal details
The proposed application is to sever 0.088 hectares of shoreline allowance from PIN 42180-2612 to be added to PIN 42180-2577, Lot 255 on Plan M-222. PIN 42180-2612 is a single transferable lot composed of shoreline and road allowances for Plan M-222. Lot 255 is currently 0.436 hectares with 40.2 metres of frontage and 108.4 metres of depth. Lot 255 currently contains a 1064 square foot A-frame building used as a pro-shop for the golf course constructed in 2002. The severed lands (shoreline allowance) are 0.088 hectares with 40.2 metres of frontage and 20.8 metres of depth. The severed lands currently contain a 3000 square foot building constructed in 1987 which was formerly used as a restaurant. Both buildings have been vacant for a number of years but are proposed to be used for seasonal recreational use. The buildings were previously serviced by the communal system which serviced the lodge, but the communal system is being decommissioned and private servicing is proposed. There is also a large dock adjacent to the shoreline to be added to Lot 255 which is proposed to remain.
Lot 255 on Plan M-222, and PIN 42180-2612 were formerly part of the Minaki golf course and a record of site condition for the site has been filed. Sewage service is proposed to be individual onsite sewage systems and water is to be drawn from the Winnipeg River. The lands are typically accessed by Ontario Highway 596, Front Street maintained by the Minaki Local Roads Board and a private road crossing a number of the lots on Plan M-222. Access is proposed by way of water. The lands are approximately 56 kilometres northwest of the City of Kenora.
