Conceptual Scheme Plan Area

The Willow Ranch Conceptual Scheme presents a high-quality infill country residential neighbourhood that the Springbank community will be proud of. The Conceptual Scheme will describe how infill residential subdivision will be implemented in an environmentally sensitive manner to ensure the Willow Ranch development is sensitive to the existing wetland and consider the environmental features of the land.

The Willow Ranch Conceptual Scheme contemplates an infill country residential neighbourhood that incorporates:

• A high-quality infill country residential neighbourhood, carefully considering the land’s topography, drainage features, existing vegetation, spectacular views, and proximity/orientation to adjacent established country residential and agricultural parcels.
• An internal subdivision road that accommodates public access to the neighbourhood in a manner that respects the existing capacity of the surrounding municipal road network.
• The provision of utility servicing via a licensed surface water supplier.
• Accommodation for individual private sewage treatment systems (PSTS) in a manner that is consistent with the County Servicing Standards.
• A framework to implement sensitive stormwater management to ensure the quantity and quality of surface run-off generated within the subdivision is consistent with the County Servicing Standards and the Springbank Master Drainage Plan.
• Dedication of Environmental Reserve (ER) and an associate Environmental Reserve Easement (ERE) to preserve the Springbank Creek, an associated riparian buffer area, and related low-lying lands within the Plan area.
