a clubhouse, maintenance building, and other ancillary buildings.
LOCATION:
The subject lands are approximately 30 hectares in area, of which

that has been determined to be an overall benefit for the
community;

Management and Monitoring Program, approval of this golf
course use will ensure the restoration, over time, of an
acceptable level of natural heritage significance, replacing
ecological and forest values which have been impacted during
recent site alteration activities; accordingly, the amendment is
not contrary to the ecological goals, resource management goal,
rural goals, objectives, purpose and intent of the Picketing
Official Plan, and further, it is consistent with the principles of
