Application for a Zoning By-Law Amendment & Official Plan Amendment

The Township of North Stormont has received a joint application by GFL Environmental Inc. for an Official Plan Amendment and Zoning By-Law Amendment. 

The Official Plan Amendment is required to re-designate Lots 14, 15, and the East half of Lot 16 from the Agricultural Resource Lands designation to the Rural District designation. 

The Zoning By-law Amendment is being sought to re-zone the expansion lands and existing waste handling site

From:

  • Agricultural (AG),
  • Rural (RU),
  • Waste Disposal (WD),
  • Waste Disposal - Exception 2 (WD-2), and;
  • Highway Commercial - Exception 7 (CH-7) Zones

To:

  • Waste Disposal –  Exception # - holding Zone (WD-#-h).

The amendments are required to facilitate the expansion of the landfill disposal capacity at the existing Eastern Ontario Waste Handling Facility (EOWHF), owned and operated by GFL Environment Inc. The application would also remove the ANSI Zone from the remainder of the existing EOWHF Site.

Below is a guide to the expansion process and full application notice.
