Consultation has concluded

On November 9, 2023, the Town received a request from Yarmouth Freshmart to allow a refrigerated storage trailer (accessory building) at 107 Main Street to encroach into a minimum required abutting yard set-back.

HOW WILL THIS AFFECT ME?

Subject to Council approval of this application, the proposed amendments to the MPS and LUB would provide staff, Council and landowners with an additional flexibility to consider and apply for similar requests in commercial areas adjacent to residential uses in the future.

The proposed Development Agreement would only apply to the property located at 107 Main Street.
