DEVELOPMENT PERMITS Sensitive Ecosystems (Streamside Areas) Development Permit Requirement • The subject property falls within the Sensitive Ecosystems Development Permit Area (DPA) for Streamside Areas in the OCP, given the location of an existing Class A (red-coded) watercourse which flows south to north. The Sensitive Ecosystems (Streamside Areas) Development Permit is required to protect aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems associated with streams from the impacts of development. • In accordance with Part 7A Streamside Protection setbacks of the Zoning By-law, a Class A (red-coded) watercourse requires a minimum streamside setback of 30 metres, as measured from the top of bank. The proposed setbacks do not comply with the requirements outlined in the Zoning By-law. Instead, the applicant is proposing a minimum 20 metres setback at its closest point in order to facilitate subdivision into four single family lots. The proposed variance only applies to the eastern side of the watercourse.
