Notice of Statutory Public Meeting and Recommendation Report for 291 North Service Rd.

Meeting Date: Dec. 3, 2024

DeLoyde Development Solutions has made applications on behalf of the landowners to amend the Official Plan and Zoning Bylaw for the lands located at 291 North Service Rd. The File Reference Numbers are 505-04/24 520-09/24.

Proposed Development

The applications propose to amend the Official Plan and Zoning Bylaw to redevelop 2.4 hectares of the former Halton Region landfill site to permit an asphalt plant with outdoor storage and open silos with a maximum height of 25 metres. Vehicular access is proposed from North Service Road with one driveway located on the east side of the subject property. The proposed development will have a total of six surface parking spaces.

Application materials are posted on the webpage at burlington.ca/291northservice.

Proposed Amendments

The City of Burlington Official Plan (1997), as amended, designates the subject property as ‘Business Corridor’ which permits a broad range of office uses, industrial uses that involve assembling, fabricating, manufacturing, processing, warehousing and distribution uses, research and information processing, communications, utilities and transportation uses, service trades, hotel, conference and convention uses with a maximum Floor Area Ratio of 0.5:1.

The City’s new Official Plan (2020, subject to appeals) Plan identifies the subject lands within the “Region of Halton Employment Area” and designates them as “Natural Heritage Systems’ with a site-specific exception that requires the submission and implementation of an Environmental Impact Assessment, a Viewshed Study and compliance with the North Aldershot design policies.

The City’s Zoning Bylaw zones the subject property as ‘Business Corridor’ (H-BC2) which permits motor vehicle storage in addition to other permitted uses including a broad range of service commercial uses, residential, office, community uses and entertainment and recreational uses.
