To ensure future onsite sewage systems and onsite sewage system holding tanks never become significant drinking water threats, where such activities would be significant drinking water threats, the County and the Township shall amend its Official Plan to identify the significant drinking water threat areas and include direction that additional servicing constraints may be applied through municipal zoning bylaws. The uses, buildings and/or structures that would require a new onsite sewage system or onsite sewage system holding tank within identified significant drinking water threat areas and require those uses to be serviced by municipal services (Section 43(1)3.1 and 34(5) of the Planning Act) to ensure these activities never become significant drinking water threats.
