A site plan agreement has been amended to exclude a motel in Espanola’s south end.
Initially, the site plan agreement was approved by Council in August 2020 to renovate the existing Queensway Motel, which had suffered fire damage and closed a couple of years ago.
The owner of the property, Polly Investments, says the building will be demolished and a strip mall built in its place.
The property owner advised that they intend to later build a motel south/east of this location in the future.
Since this was a major change from the original agreement a new one had to be drawn up to ensure the legal development of the site takes place at outlined within the document.
A Site Plan Control Agreement is an agreement registered on title, at the Land Registry Office, that describes the manner in which a property must be developed. It contains plan(s) illustrating the proposed development, terms of the agreement and usually includes financial guarantees to ensure compliance with the agreement.
