Durham Region and the Township of Scugog is considering a proposal to build a development with 79 townhouses in Port Perry.
The Region of Durham has received an application for a Draft Plan of Subdivision, while the Township of Scugog has received an associated Official Plan Amendment, Zoning By-law Amendment and Site Plan Application for the lands shown on the key map [right] in the south part of Port Perry, said a statement.
There will be a virtual public meeting to consider the proposed amendments for the project located at the northwest corner of Simcoe Street and King Street.
The application has been moved by owners Magnum General Contracting Inc. (Dan MacInnis) and agent Scott Waterhouse, GHD.
The 79-townhouse development comprises 33 dual frontage townhouse units, 36 back-to-back townhouse units and 10 street townhouse units. The subdivision has proposed road connections to King Street and Calwell Drive.
The purpose of the proposed Official Plan Amendment is to re-designate the south parcel from Neighbourhood Commercial to Residential and to permit back-to-back townhouse dwellings in the Residential designation on these lands. The purpose of the Zoning By-law Amendment is to rezone the subject lands to Urban Residential Multiple Type Three Exception (RM3-XX) to permit the proposed townhouse development. A Site Plan Application has also been submitted for the townhouse development. The Draft Plan of Subdivision Application is being processed concurrently by the Region of Durham and applies to the north parcel which is not currently included in a registered plan of subdivision.
The virtual public meeting will be held on Monday, February 14, at 6:30pm. Interested residents can watch the meeting live through the township’s website: https://www.scugog.ca/en/township-office/council-committee-calendar.aspx
