Located in Barrie, the industrial property at 49 and 53 Morrow Road faced a unique real estate challenge. The two parcels had inadvertently merged on title because they were held under the exact same ownership. The objective of this project was to formally re-establish the boundary lot line between 49 and 53 Morrow Road. The proposed consent to sever application was prepared to legally separate the properties back into two distinct lots, fulfilling the necessary criteria outlined under Section 51(24) of the Planning Act.
Design Plan Services Inc. was retained to undertake the initial research and prepare the application. Acting as the authorized agent representing the property owners, a Planner from Design Plan Services presented the application to the Committee of Adjustment. He provided professional planning rationale to the committee, who eventually ruled in favour of the property owner.
