Comment
- Township of Springwater is generally in support of the proposed changes within Draft PPS 2024.
- It is expected that the Township of Springwater will continue to host a strong agricultural community and the proposed policies of the Draft Provincial Planning Statement reinforce that prime agricultural lands are to be protected for long term use. While consents to sever continue to be deterred, the permission of up to three (3) dwellings is a benefit to the farming community allowing for housing of family and/or for additional farm help. Clarity is required in the Draft PPS, 2024 whether the three (3) permitted residences can, or cannot, be severed together in the future as a farm dwelling ‘cluster’.
- The Township of Springwater Agricultural Advisory Committee reviewed the Proposed Provincial Planning Statement Amendments, and the Committee hereby supports the Proposed Provincial Planning Statement amendments (see attached resolution).
