Land Transfer to Expand Cottage Property on Cummins Lake

Official title: Kristina Cameron - New - Approval for a consent (subject to conditions) in an area where there is no official plan in place

Open Regulations & Permits Housing & Communities
A property owner near Thunder Bay wants to transfer a small piece of vacant land (about 300 square metres) to their neighbouring cottage lot. This would give the cottage property direct road access. The land is on Cummins Lake in Jacques Township.

Why This Matters

This is a routine land severance that mainly affects the property owners involved. If you own property nearby on Cummins Lake, you might want to know about changes to lot boundaries in your area.

What Could Change

If approved, the cottage lot would grow slightly and gain direct road access. The retained lot would still have over a hectare with lake frontage and road access on two sides.

Key Issues

  • Should this land transfer be approved to give the cottage property direct road access?
  • Are there any concerns about the proposed lot configuration?
