Subject Property

The subject property is shown on the map to the right and is identified as PID 45097227, Havenwood Drive, Shubenacadie. The total area of the subject land is approximately 5.9 ha. The property is zoned Rural Use (RU) Zone. Property to the east is zoned Two Dwelling Unit Residential (R2) Zone, and property to the north, south, and west is zoned Rural Use (RU) Zone. The Municipality owns a 0.21 hectare parcel of land that is zoned Open Space (OS), which is currently landlocked but it may eventually have frontage on the Havenwood Drive extension. The subject property has frontage on Havenwood Drive and the lands are located in the Shubenacadie Growth Management Area.

Details

The purpose of this application is to amend the Municipal Planning Strategy and Land Use Bylaw to allow for the extension of Havenwood Drive, Shubenacadie, and the development of up to 47 semi-detached structures, for a total of 94 dwelling units. A concept plan of the proposed development is shown on the following page. At one time, Havenwood Drive had intended to be extended to allow for the continued development of the road; however, limitations with the Shubenacadie wastewater treatment facility prevented the land from being further developed. Now that the new wastewater treatment facility is nearing completion, development in the Shubenacadie Growth Management Area is expected to increase. Since the initial development of Havenwood Drive in the late 1980s, Subdivision Bylaw regulations have changed. The developed portion of Havenwood Drive is a public gravel road owned by the Province. Under the Subdivision Bylaw regulations, the proposed road extension will be a Municipally owned paved road with a sidewalk.
