  • Establishing a commercial parking lot
  • Making alterations to an already approved site plan

You do not have to provide a site plan when building:

  • A single-family dwelling
  • A semi-detached dwelling
  • A duplex

Documentation you require:

  • Site plan drawings
  • Elevation Drawings
  • Service Plan Utilities/Engineering
  • Grading Plan
  • Underground services
  • Landscaping

The fee for a site plan control is $700 plus HST.

To receive the site plan control review guide, please contact the Director of Planning, Building and By-law Enforcement.
