3. Staff Comments
3.1 The Holding (H) symbol is a provision enabled by the Official Plan to ensure that certain
obligations have been considered prior to development of the lands. This includes:
servicing, access, protection of natural areas, measures to mitigate the impact of
development, submission of required studies, execution of agreements and any other
requirements as may be deemed necessary by Council including the implementation of
the policies of this plan.
3.2 Site Plan approval for Harbourview was issued in September 1, 2016 and the applicant
has entered into a Site Plan Agreement and posted the necessary securities. Provisions
of the Official Plan regarding removal of Holding have been satisfied and staff have no
concerns with lifting the ‘H’ symbol. Site Plan Approval will be required for the other
buildings north-east of Lakebreeze Drive and Shipway Avenue. Temporary access to the
site will be from Shipway Avenue. Construction of the last section of Lakebreeze Drive
will commence with occupancy of the first building.
3.3 All property taxes have been paid in full.
