Plan of Subdivision

A plan of subdivision provides for a parcel of land to be legally divided to establish new public streets and to divide lands into two or more parcels in order to sell one or more parcels.

If you are proposing to sell individual units as condominium units in Wellesley, you must first obtain plan of condominium approval.

The Region of Waterloo has the authority to review and approve plans of subdivision and condominium for the Township of Wellesley. The region has been delegated this responsibility by the Province of Ontario under the Planning Act
