BARRIE, ONT. Some residents in Barrie s south-end Allandale neighbourhood say they re frustrated over the lack of rules and regulations regarding building secondary suites on residential properties. Arlene McCann s backyard currently has a giant hole where a second house on her neighbour s property is being built. We had no notice of this. It started Monday with a survey crew coming in quickly followed by a bulldozer, she said. The city issued the owner of the property a permit to build the secondary suite. It s part of a strategy to create more affordable housing after the province loosened rules in 2019 around secondary suites as part of its More Homes, More Choice Act.
