The predominant use of lands so designated shall be for agricultural and farm related purposes. Residential development shall be limited to minor internal infilling and/or minor additions to existing development provided that such development is recognized as a Residential Node or Cluster in the local municipality's Zoning By-lay. Furthermore, the subject property is located outside of the limits of the Burketon Station Secondary Hamlet Plan. Therefore, the applicant applied in December of 1989 to amend the Burketon Station Hamlet and this application, in view of the current policies, is now being considered as an amendment to the Town of Newcastle Official Plan. 6 . ZONING 6 . 1 The subject lands are currently zoned "Agricultural (A) " By-law 84-63, in the Town of Newcastle Comprehensive Zoning By-law. As residential uses of the size and magnitude proposed in the subject application are not permitted within the current zone category, the applicant has also applied to appropriately amend the Zoning By- law. 6 .2 The proposed rezoning application would change the zoning to an appropriate category to permit the proposed development. . . .4 1 F- REPORT NO. : PD-81-90 PAGE 4 7 .

The Public Works Department also asked that an application for property access be made. 8.4 The Ministry of Natural Resources noted no objection to the application in principal, however advised that the subject property, located on the west side of Regional Road #57, is directly west of a licensed gravel pit operation on the east side of Regional Road #57 .
