Nassagaweya zoning by law approved by OMB
The Ontario Municipal Board approved Nassagaweya by law after two and a half years of work. It imposes quarry setbacks of 300 feet from the escarpment and 1,000 feet from villages, and requires 2,000 square feet minimum for new houses in agricultural zones despite objections. The ruling allows council to pass minor amendments and adopt zoning to advance the township plan.
