Full RecordingEnvironmental Development Permit with Variance 2022/11 - 302 Bessborough Avenue
Approved the Environmental Development Permit and associated variance for property at 302 Bessborough Avenue to allow the replacement of existing stairs and dock access near the present natural boundary of the sea.
"Council reviewed the proposal to replace an old dock structure with a new, environmentally sensitive design. The applicant emphasized neighborhood support, compliance with DFO/DND regulations, and a significant reduction in landing platform area. Staff noted that the dock and ramp would be constructed off-site and barged in, mitigating construction impacts on the foreshore."
