transferred to The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington and require by-laws to have
the lands assumed as public highways.
1. Background
1.1 Through the development process, various road widenings have been transferred to The
Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington. When development conditions are met by

development conditions are met by developers, the 0.3 reserves require by-laws to have
them dedicated as public highways for public use. The reserves will become part of the
road widening and will be assumed by the Municipality when the subdivision is complete.

measure, the various lands to be dedicated and assumed for public use have been
