Decision details
The application for consent 59-C-223079 was draft approved on October 19, 2022 subject to conditions.
The application was reviewed for consistency with the environmental policies of the Provincial Policy Statement (e.g. natural heritage, water quality protection). No public comments were received, or concerns identified.
Nydia Lake is designated by policy as an inland lake trout lake but given the small scale of this proposal to alter lot lines between existing properties, and since no new lot or development is being created, there will be no negative impacts to greenspace, natural heritage and water quality and quantity, nor public health and safety.
Conditions include an inspection by the Northwestern Health Unit of Lots 6 and 7 for suitability of sewage systems; and an acknowledgement of awareness by the transferors and transferees that the Province of Ontario does not guarantee road access to the property via Crown Land; that future applications for dispositions may not be approved by the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry as Nydia Lake is designated as an inland lake trout lake; and that work permits are required from Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry for any future development along shorelines or Crown Land.
The decision to approve the consent is consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement once conditions are met. This decision will not have a significant impact on the environment.
The applicants have two years to satisfy conditions of draft approval, otherwise approval will lapse. The approval can be appealed using the procedure outlined below. Notice to appeal the decision to the Ontario Land Tribunal must be filed with the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing on or before November 7, 2022.
Effects of consultation
No comments were received resulting in no impact on the decision on whether or not to proceed with this proposal.
