The owner of the house believed they owned the lands proposed lot to be transferred in the lot addition. The house was built in the 1980s. A second component of this application is a proposed easement in favour of PIN 61229-0298.

The benefitting lot will cover approximately 21.1 hectares, while the proposed retained lot will be approximately 10 hectares, with frontage on Highway 11 as well as Kenogami Lane. The retained lands contain one house and associated buildings and services.

No new development has been proposed as a result of this application.

The application will be reviewed for consistency with the environmental policies of the Provincial Policy Statement (e.g. natural heritage, water quality protection).
