Development Notice | Discretionary Use | 1359 Torbay Road

The Town of Torbay is in receipt of an application proposing a 157.94 m2 extension to the rear of an existing six (6) unit apartment building at 1359 Torbay Road. The proposal includes the addition of four (4) apartments (2 bedrooms each), and the upgrading of an existing apartment from one to two bedrooms. The new units will be semi-serviced (existing on-site well, municipal sewer).

The Town had undertaken a prior discretionary use notification and had issued a prior approval for this development; however, the proponent did not proceed at the time and the approval has since expired. This is a new application for the same proposal.

The property is located in the Town Centre (TC) Land Use Zone of the Torbay Development Regulations 2015-2025, and a proposed Apartment Building use is listed as discretionary.  This application is processed in accordance with Regulations 33 and 90, requiring public notification. 

Anyone wishing to comment on this proposal, is asked to contact the Town Office in writing. The deadline for written comments shall be 12:00 p.m., Friday April 24, 2026. Further information on this matter may be obtained by contacting the Town’s Planning and Development Department.
