ERIN – A new commercial plaza is coming to Erin.
The plaza will be located at Wellington Road 124 and MacLachlan Road in Erin.
It will include a total of 12 commercial spaces, 489 parking spaces, 30 barrier-free parking spaces, 12 loading spaces and 27 drive-thru queuing spots.
“The uses will include various retail uses, supermarket, restaurant drive-thrus and a day nursery,” said Jacklyn Cooke, intermediate planner at KLM planning partners, at the Aug. 27 meeting of the committee of adjustment.
The development will be 13,607 square metres in size and is a combined effort between:
- LLA Architecture;
- Schaffers Consulting Engineers;
- LEA Consulting;
- KLM Planning;
- RTG Systems Inc.;
- Strybos Barron King Landscape Architecture;
- Williams and Stewart Associated Limited;
- National Properties Inc.; and
- Northern Capital Corp. c/o Solmar Development Corp.
Cooke assured the committee, and present councillors, that the building would maintain Erin’s “rural charm.”
“I’d like to applaud the builders and the planners on bringing forward the rural charm aspect,” said councillor Bridget Ryan.
“(That’s) the look and feel that we want as we move forward with the growth of Erin.”
Construction on the proposed development has not started, and it is unclear when the development will be underway.
