Original proposal
Proposal details
Formal application 60-C-220676 is to create one new resource-based recreational lot (Part 2) and an easement. The proposed easement (Part 5) would be 0.710 hectares crossing Parts 2 and 3 and would be used for electricity and road access to each of the proposed severed lots. A second severed lot (Part 3) is proposed under a separate application (Ministry File 60-C-228296)
The severed lot (Part 2) is proposed to be 2.701 hectares with 244 metres of frontage on Wabigoon Lake and 170.4 metres of depth. There are two dwellings on this property both connected to an Ecoflow septic system which is approved by the Northwestern Health Unit. The main dwelling was built in 2006, and the second dwelling which is currently rented out was built in 2002. The lot will continue to be used as a resource-based recreational use.
The retained lands include a small shed, solar panels (approved under Section 47.5 of the Environmental Protection Act), and a cell tower (TbayTel). No changes are proposed.
