What is proposed?

An “H” holding symbol is a mechanism to ensure that certain conditions are met prior to the development of the lands proceeding in accordance with the approved zoning. If the conditions are met, the Town of Oakville is required to remove the holding symbol upon application by the landowner, by passing a By-law under Section 36 of the Planning Act. Holding Provision Number H58 requires that the following condition(s) be completed to the satisfaction of the Town:

1. That the Owner completes and receives approval of an Environmental Impact Assessment to the satisfaction of the Town of Oakville, Region of Halton, and Conservation Halton.
2. That a new public right of way be constructed in accordance with Town of Oakville standards to provide access to the subject lands and the lands to the north.
