Is that good planning? The developer needs to stick to the Ancaster Wilson Street Secondary Plan bylaws and zoning.<\/span><\/p>\n

Some still call it Olde Ancaster, with the extra \u2018e\u2019. Most call it the village. After exiting off Highway 403, you drive into town, past a throwback wooden welcome sign, on a street named after Jean Baptiste Rousseaux, who bought the saw mill in 1794 where Ancaster was founded.<\/span><\/p>\n
