N.S. Reg. 115/2022 (effective June 16, 2022 )

Whereas the Port Wallace Special Planning Area Order , N.S. Reg. 61/2022, was made on

March 24, 2022, and designated the Port Wallace Special Planning Area;

Whereas the Executive Panel on Housing in the Halifax Regional Municipality has

recommended amendments to the municipal planning strategy and land-use by-law applicable

to the Port Wallace Planning Area (respectively the Regional Municipal Planning Strategy and

the Dartmouth Land Use By-law);

And

whereas I am satisfied that the recommended amendments are necessary to advance the

purpose of the Housing in the Halifax Regional Municipality Act ;

Therefore , I order the following:

1. The Regional Municipality Planning Strategy is amended by adding the following

in bold immediately following Policy G-11:

G-11A Notwithstanding Policy G-15, the Minister of Municipal Areas

[Affairs] and Housing may consider development agreements on

lands designated as a special planning area which supersede the

Regional Subdivision By-Law requirements to enable early tree

removal, blasting, and earthworks by development agreement.

The intent of this policy is to enable early site work concurrent

with the resolution of the detailed planning matters for the

subject sites. As a requirement of the development agreement,

the following drawings prepared by a Professional Engineer

must be submitted as a condition of permitting:

(a)Site Disturbance Plan;

(

b) Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan; and

(

c) Site Grading and Stormwater Management Plan.

2. The Dartmouth Land Use By-law is amended by adding the following in bold

immediately following

Section 18X:

18Z Notwithstanding any other provision of this By-law, within the

lands designated as a special planning area, early tree removal,

blasting, and earthworks may be considered, subject to the

provisions of a development agreement in accordance with policy

G-11A of the Regional Municipal Planning Strategy.

This order is effective on and after the date of this order.
