Request

Bryanna Cluett is applying for Dartmouth plan and land use by-law amendments to allow a single unit dwelling at R-I zoned lands in Dartmouth.

Proposal

The applicant is proposing to amend the Dartmouth Municipal Planning Strategy (MPS) and Land Use By-law (LUB) to permit single unit dwellings on R-1 (Single Family Residential) zoned properties at Greenbank Court, Dartmouth.

The major aspects of the proposal are as follows:

  • to amend the Dartmouth MPS and LUB to allow for a single-unit dwelling to be built on existing R-1 zoned vacant land at 16 Greenbank Court in Dartmouth. The proposed single-unit dwelling would be serviced by on-site septic and central water services via an existing water main. The amendments would lift the ban on new single-unit dwellings on the subject site; and
  • to consider the existing approximately 26 R-1 zoned lots on Greenbank Court and Cove Lane. Of these approximate 26 lots, 12 lots are already developed. 

The Project Information, Site Plan, and Design Rationale (provided below) outline the development proposal in detail, and include information related to history of the site and intent of the applicant.
