A site alteration permit has been re-applied for by the owner and Ashenhurst Nouwens of 3118 Grassie Road to import additional material to the 13.6 acre property where a new dwelling is being constructed.

In May of 2024, Council approved site alteration application 3000-001-24 to permit 4,617 cubic metres of material to the site to complete grading around the new dwelling. The applicant has exceeded the original permit and has brought approximately 7,310 cubic metres (731 truck loads) of material to the property, including granular, topsoil, ruble, and earth fill material.

Council denied the applicants request to bring in more fill material to the property, but did approve allowing the excess material already brought to the site to remain, subject to the owner entering into an agreement with the Township within 10 days of Council’s approval. The owner did not enter into this agreement and therefore has re-applied to permit the existing excess soil which is approximately 119 truck loads of material.
