The city of Ottawa says a stop work order to pause tree cutting on the site of the future Tewin development in rural southeast Ottawa will be rescinded and tree removal is expected to resume.
Land near Piperville and Anderson roads are seen in this March 1, 2023 image. The site is part of the future Tewin development.
The city ordered a tree-clearing operation stopped on the land slated for development under Ottawa's tree protection bylaw in February, after hundreds of trees were cut down near Anderson and Piperville roads. The city said at the time that no permit was obtained to remove the trees. In a memo to council Tuesday, staff said the ownership group developing the land said that it is being cleared for future farming activities. The area is currently zoned for agricultural use. An exemption exists under the tree protection bylaw that allows for farming practices.
Herweyer said that while initial investigations have concluded, staff would continue to monitor the site to ensure the developer holds up its end of the exemption by committing to farming activities.
