我们获得土地开发批准 WE GET APPROVALS FOR LAND DEVELOPMENT
小方差应用 (Minor Variance Application)
如果您的提案不完全符合分区附例的要求，但符合其总体意图，我们可以向市政当局申请变更。
土地分割 (Lot Severance)
划出地块以创建额外地块必须获得市政当局的批准。除了创建新地块外，地役权、通行权和边界调整也需要获得市政当局的批准。
场地规划审批 (Site Plan Approval)
场地规划控制的目的是在开发前处理诸如场地平整、景观美化、照明、雨水管理和场地布局等事宜。场地规划控制还可用于规范建筑物的外部设计，并要求开发项目旁的市政通行权采用可持续的设计元素。
场地规划审批流程旨在促进合理的功能开发，同时最大限度地减少对周边土地用途的不利影响。其旨在保护包括公众、市政当局和土地所有者在内的各方利益。
咨询会议 (Pre-Consultation Meeting)
任何向市政当局提交的规划申请都要求我们在提交申请前与市政规划人员会面。该会议称为预咨询会议，旨在审查提案，以确定需要随申请提交哪些附加信息和申请（例如雨水管理报告、交通研究、环境影响研究等)。
我们编制概念规划、提交申请并参加市政当局预咨询会议的费用为 2,985 美元。我们将根据地形测量、场地服务规划、雨水管理报告和功能服务报告，准备所有必要的建筑平面图和立面图、场地平面图、坡度和排水规划图，以获得市政批准和建筑许可。
The Provincial Planning Act establishes rules for how lands can be developed in Ontario. As Ontario's leading land development experts, we work with landowners to make sure development proposals align with the municipal Official Plan and Zoning By-laws. If the land development proposal doesn’t, a planning application needs to be submitted. The land development planning application process is extensive and depends on the type of development being proposed, but usually follows the same steps: Planning Application submitted, reviewed by the municipal staff, public meeting held and planning application approved, building permit issued, and construction begins
All planning applications for land development include drawings, documents, and studies about the proposed land development. They are reviewed by municipal planners and other staff who look at things like building size, drainage and lot grading, neighbourhood compatibility, and evaluate potential impacts to:
- Transportation, including traffic, transit, walkability, and parking
- Services and infrastructure, and increased demand on parks, community centres, schools, roads and sewers
- Public safety, like the delivery of fire and other emergency services
- The natural environment, including air quality, trees, watersheds, and stormwater
- Pedestrian comfort is affected by wind, noise, and shadows
In most cases, the municipality gathers public feedback on planning applications to make sure new developments meet the needs of the community.
Some planning applications are approved at a municipal staff level, while others have to go to the Planning and Development Committee for approval, which is made up of municipal Council members. Some Mayors in Ontario also have the power, under the Strong Mayors, Building Homes Act, 2022, to approve applications that help the Province’s goal of getting more housing built.
Official Plan Amendments
The municipal Official Plan addresses how and where we’ll grow, and ensures future development meets the needs of the community. If a proposed development does not conform to the municipal Official Plan, an application for an Official Plan Amendment must be submitted.
These applications for Official Plan Amendment OPA go through a technical review and evaluation by municipal staff, who submit a recommendation report to the Planning and Development Committee. A statutory meeting is held to gather public feedback before a decision is made.
Zoning By-law Amendments
The Zoning By-law regulates exactly what land can be used for and what can be built in different areas. If a proposed development does not comply with the Zoning By-law, an application for a Zoning By-law Amendment must be submitted.
Like Official Plan Amendments, rezoning applications go through a technical review and evaluation by the municipal staff, followed by a recommendation report, statutory public meeting, and decision by the Planning and Development Committee.
Many land development proposals require both a Zoning By-law and an Official Plan Amendment.
Plan of Subdivision
A plan of subdivision is required when land is being divided into smaller parcels for development purposes. This can include land designated for public roads, parks, and other public purposes, in addition to land that is being developed.
Plan of subdivision applications go through a technical review and evaluation by the municipal staff and are often accompanied by a rezoning application. The municipality’s Commissioner of Planning and Building has the authority to approve these applications.
Site Plan Approval
The site plan control process looks at external design elements like landscaping, grading, site layout, parking areas and emergency services access. If a proposed development is for more than 10 residential units, it is subject to site plan control, and a site plan approval application needs to be submitted.
Site plan approval applications go through a technical review and evaluation by the municipal staff before being approved. The public is not consulted on these applications.
Minor Variance and Consent (Severance) Applications
If a proposed development meets the intent of the municipal Official Plan but differs slightly from a specific regulation in the Zoning By-law, a minor variance can be requested to the Committee of Adjustment.
The Committee of Adjustment also reviews consent applications from landowners who want to make small-scale property boundary adjustments.
The Committee of Adjustment reviews the application and holds a statutory public meeting to gather feedback before a decision is made.
Ontario Land Tribunal
The Ontario Land Tribunal (OLT) is an independent administrative tribunal responsible for resolving appeals and matters related to land use planning.
Appeals can only be made by landowners whose property is subject to an application decision, developers, the municipality or external agencies, such as school boards or utility companies. Any decision by the municipality related to land use planning can be appealed to the OLT.
An appeal can also be submitted to the OLT before the municipality has made a decision, on the grounds of non-decision or delay, especially if the decision has not been made within a time frame specified in the Planning Act.
Minister's Zoning Orders
The Province of Ontario can approve development projects without an Official Plan amendment or Zoning By-law amendment application and without the statutory public meeting. This is done through a Minister’s Zoning Order.
Building Permits
Once all required planning permissions have been approved, an application for a building permit can be submitted. A building permit must be issued before construction starts.

Land Development is a multifaceted process involving problem-solving and extensive experience. Due to the complexities involved in land development, attention to detail in Land Planning, often takes longer than initially anticipated.
Our commitment is to provide prompt responses, thorough undertanding, and unwavering truthfulness in our interactions with the landowner.
Planning Application process for Land Development is not linear but rather circular in stages, with pauses for municipal and stakeholder reviews, as we address challenges, and provide necessary clarifications.
Land delopment is a challenging endeavour. When embarking on land development, we assimilate objectives and formulate a comprehensive plan and navigate the planning application submission process on your behalf to secure the required approvals. Throughout the planning application process, we may be called upon to advocate for our proposed land use, requiring a deep understanding of the construction context and relevant codes, regulations and bylaws to be effective.
In this intricate process, we accompany the landowner at every step, providing guidance and direction towards the proposed land development.
