Roads & Public Works

By-law 11-35 of the Corporation of the Township of Elizabethtown-Kitley states that the term “entranceway”:

… Shall mean any driveway, lane, private road, entrance or other structure or facility constructed or used as a means of access to a township road, and includes the tiling and covering or filling in of a roadside ditch for the purpose of improving a lawn or other frontage.

Section 2.04 of By-law 11-35, the Entranceways By-law, states that permits are required in order that:

…The location of the entranceway must be approved by the Road Superintendent to ensure maximum safety, free flow of traffic and compliance with municipal by-laws and to minimize the possibility of interference with the road or the creation of a maintenance problem.

Applications for an entranceway onto a Township road must be made to the Public Works Department of the Township of Elizabethtown-Kitley.

The permit fee of one hundred dollars ($100.00) must be received by the Township before the permit can be issued.
