Applications for Official Plan Amendment (D09-2025-002), CPPS By-law Amendment (SL-2025-026) and Redline Revision to a Draft Plan of Subdivision (D12-2000-003) have been received to revise Phase 3 of the SanDiego 2 Draft Plan of Subdivision to include 153 residential lots (30 single detached dwellings, 123 townhouse units) and a 3 storey mixed-use building with main floor commercial and 30 apartment units on upper floors within the south portion of the subject lands. Approximately 85 single detached dwellings are currently draft approved in this area. A future development block is proposed on the north portion of the subject lands and an open space block along the length of the Metrolinx rail corridor to the west. The current draft approval permits 466 residential units on the entirety of the subject lands (37 townhouses, 215 units in a mixed use block and 214 single detached dwellings). To facilitate the proposed revisions, the Official Plan Amendment application proposes to re-designate a portion of the subject lands from 'Residential Low Density 1' and 'Residential Low Density 2' to 'Residential Medium Density', 'Neighbourhood Commercial Area' and 'Parks and Open Space'. The CPPS By-law Amendment proposes to re-zone the lands to the Residential Low Density 2 Exception (RL2-XX), Residential Medium Density Exception (RM-XX), Neighbourhood Commercial Exception (NC-XX) and Open Space (OS) Precincts to permit the proposed single detached dwellings, townhouse dwellings and mixed-use building on the south portion of the lands. Any future development of the north portion of the property will require future planning applications. 

A Public Meeting has been scheduled for Wednesday November 19, 2025 to be held in the Council Chambers at 6:30pm. Please see the below links to the Notice of Complete Application and Public Meeting and supporting materials for more information.

Applications for Official Plan Amendment (D09-2025-001) and Zoning By-law Amendment (D14-2025-013) have been received proposing a residential development consisting of one hundred and two (102) townhouse dwelling units including 16 blocks for townhouses, a common element area, and a natural environmental area. Approximately 362 square metres of amenity area located along the internal street network is proposed. The development is proposed to be accessed by a private road with two (2) accesses, one with access onto 20th Sideroad and the other with access onto Killarney Beach Road, providing a connected driveway and access to the residential dwelling units and associated visitor parking area. In order to facilitate the proposed development, the Official Plan Amendment (OPA) proposes to redesignate the Subject Lands from ‘Neighbourhood Commercial’ to ‘Residential Medium Density’ and ‘Environmental Protection’ and remove area-specific policy 24.1 which states that no more than 25% of the units shall be townhouses. The Zoning By-law Amendment (ZBA) proposes to establish site-specific zone provisions to address site and building design. The proposed Zoning By-law Amendment would establish site-specific provisions for minimum landscaped open space, minimum lot area, minimum lot frontage, minimum front yard, minimum exterior side yard, minimum rear yard and maximum lot coverage.

A Public Meeting has been scheduled for Wednesday November 19, 2025 to be held in the Council Chambers at 6:30pm. Please see the below links to the Notice of Complete Application and Public Meeting and supporting materials for more information.

Applications for Draft Plan of Subdivision (File: D12-2023-002), Official Plan Amendment (File: D09-2023-001) and Zoning By-law Amendment (File: D14-2022-008) have been received to facilitate a draft plan of subdivision including a commercial lot and 46 residential single detached lots including an existing heritage dwelling on partial services (municipal communal well and private individual on-site septic).
