Dec 11, 2025: Council Opposes Cavanagh Appeal to OLT

Council to Oppose Cavanagh Construction Appeal to Ontario Land Tribunal

(From the Township of Lanark Highlands Clerk)

Good morning, 

On December 9, 2025, Council directed its legal counsel to begin preparing to oppose Cavanagh Construction’s appeal to the Ontario Land Tribunal regarding the lack of decision on their Official Plan Amendment and Zoning By-law Amendment applications. This direction follows a detailed briefing from legal counsel. It reflects Council’s careful consideration of the issues, as well as the concerns that have been raised by members of the community.

This step enables the Township to participate in the Tribunal process fully and ensure that local planning policies and community interests are appropriately represented. We understand that residents and other concerned citizens are eager for updates and we are committed to keeping the community informed as the process moves forward.  As additional information becomes available, we will share it on our website and through our official communication channels.

 Thanks for your continued engagement and interest in this matter.

Kind regards, 

Nicole Guthrie | Clerk
