Notice of Intention to Remove Holding Symbol
A Holding Symbol (H1) was applied to 1420 Mount Albert Road and 19202 Leslie Street when zoning for the development was approved (ZBA.19.01) to ensure building permits could not be issued until adequate water and wastewater servicing was available. The applicant submitted a request to remove the hold from portions of the properties to develop further. The applicant is proposing to transfer allocation from their previous phases of development to prioritize the 1420 Mount Albert Road and 19202 Leslie Street development. The earliest Council will meet to consider passing an amending by-law is June 21, 2022. Contact Jack Smith, Planner, at jack.smith@eastgwillimbury.ca or 905-478-4283 ext. 1252 for more information.
