Thai Embassy Office Zoning

Posted on June 27, 2018 by | Comments Off on Thai Embassy Office Zoning

Following up on last year’s post https://champlainpark.org/2017/08/06/office-building-on-island-park-drive/

From: ROLAND DORSAY <dorsay@rogers.com>
Date: Mon, 18 Jun 2018 19:55:42 +0000 (UTC)

As some of you will a have read from Jeff Leiper’s Ward newsletter update today, the Thai Embassy has re-activated its application from last year for a zoning amendment. The application, if approved, would allow the Thais to use the Embassy “primarily”, (i.e. exclusively) as an Embassy office rather than as a residence.

[…]

Here is the link to the Ottawa DevApps site setting out the particulars which are unchanged from the original application: https://app01.ottawa.ca/postingplans/appDetails.jsf?lang=en&appId=__0EJZ89

Public comments on the Thai Embassy re-application are due by July 6th.
