Looks like the "next" community will be at Carlsbad Spring near the Amazon warehouse if this get approved. Which sort of make sense as it is 20 minutes away from Ottawa and it is an underutilized section of the 417 that rarely has any congestion.A project called Tewin is included as an option for a new community.
