Description of Proposal
On December 17, 2024, the Planning Division received an Official Plan Amendment application to expand Hamilton’s urban boundary into the Greenbelt Area and Niagara Escarpment Plan Area by approximately 10 hectares to allow the development of 75 dwellings on a condominium road. A Zoning By-law Amendment and Draft Plan of Condominium application was also submitted to the City. The submission included a copy of a Niagara Escarpment Plan Amendment application to the Niagara Escarpment Commission.
The proposed applications constitute an urban expansion into the Greenbelt Area as designated under the Greenbelt Act, 2005 and the proposed uses conflict with the land use policies of the Niagara Escarpment Plan which designates the lands Escarpment Protection and Escarpment Natural, neither of which allow urban development. The Provincial Planning Statement, 2024, states municipal planning decisions must conform or not conflict with Provincial Plans which includes the Niagara Escarpment Plan.
Address: 159 & 163 Sulphur Springs Road
Application Status: The application was received on December 19, 2024 and deemed the application incomplete on January 15, 2025.
