Kawartha Lakes – The City of Kawartha Lakes has retained Four Seasons Site Developments Ltd. to undertake a pavement-resurfacing project on Ski Hill Road (CKL Road 38) from Highway 7 to Highway 7A.  

The purpose of the consent is for the validation of title for the Subject Land at 913 Highway 35 (legally described as Part of Lot 10, Concession 7), Manvers, now City of Kawartha Lakes.

In 1989, the applicant conveyed a small lot on the property (the severed land), 601 Gray Road (legally described as Part of Lot 10, Concession 7, Part Lot 1), to Bell Canada. The conveyed lands contain a Bell Canada operated substation. The Grant of Easement obtained through the Consent was never formally registered and is considered invalid, and as such, the title of the Subject Land remains unvalidated.
