Ottawa's planning committee approved the rezoning of a 386-home subdivision in Barrhaven on Thursday, and allowed more flexible placement of a future school after the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board expressed concerns. The seventh and eighth phases of Tamarack Homes's The Meadows community would be located south of Cambrian Road. Tamarack Homes wants to build a 386-home extension to its The Meadows subdivision south of Cambrian Road in Barrhaven. "There are sensitive marine clay soils throughout the subdivision," said Taggart, explaining why the board worried about higher costs. Cambrian Road is seen at the top, and the road to the right is a future, realigned Greenbank Road.
