Stormwater Pond Approval for Cobourg Subdivision - Crespi Land Development

Official title: Crespi Land Development Corporation - Environmental Compliance Approval (sewage)

Open Regulations & Permits Environment & Climate Housing & Communities
A developer wants to build a dry stormwater pond to serve a new residential subdivision near Cobourg, Ontario. The pond would collect rainwater runoff from the new homes and roads, then release it into an existing roadside ditch along County Road 18.

Why This Matters

Live near County Road 18 in Hamilton Township? This stormwater system will handle runoff from a new subdivision. If you're concerned about drainage, flooding, or water quality in local ditches, this affects your neighbourhood.

What Could Change

If approved, Crespi Land Development can proceed with building the stormwater pond and the residential subdivision at 3710 Burnham Street North. The dry pond would become part of the local drainage infrastructure, directing treated runoff into the County Road 18 ditch system.

Key Issues

  • Will the dry pond adequately manage stormwater from the new subdivision?
  • What impact will the discharge have on the existing roadside ditch system?
