WHAT'S GOING ON HERE? New Shoppers Drug Mart proposed for Carleton Place's McNeely Avenue. The proposed development consists of a single-storey, 6.1-metre-high commercial building with a total floor area of more than 17,100 square feet. It will support a future Shoppers Drug Mart pharmacy and retail store. By Tara Gesner Carleton Place Almonte Canadian Gazette Tuesday, March 24, 2026 1 min to read Article was updated Mar 24, 2026 * Twitter * Email * Print * Save JOIN THE CONVERSATION (2) A development permit application was submitted to the Town of Carleton Place last month, with the intention of constructing a commercial building on the southwest corner of 455 McNeely Ave. - adjacent to the intersection of McNeely Avenue and Highway 7. Just the facts. ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW * Loblaw Companies Limited is the owner of the subject property. * The proposed development consists of a single-storey, 6.1-metre-high commercial building with a total floor area of more than 17,100 square feet. It will support a future Shoppers Drug Mart pharmacy and retail store. * Currently, the area designated for development serves as parking for the existing retail establishments on the premises, including Anderson's Your Independent Grocer. * Many people in the Ottawa Valley will identify this location as the venue for Carleton Place Cruise Nights, a charity-driven classic car exhibition held on Wednesday evenings between May and September. * The property is designated as Highway District in the town's Official Plan and Development Permit Bylaw (DPB). * The application necessitates three variations to the DPB: one commercial vehicle loading space is proposed, but section 3.25.1 requires a minimum of two loading spaces; five bicycle parking spaces are proposed, but section 3.31 requires a minimum of 21 spaces; and to permit a pharmacy as a permitted use in the Highway District. * A Shoppers Drug Mart is already located in Carleton Place at 315 McNeely Ave., roughly 1.5 kilometres from here. * "The elevations that have been provided to the town are specifically for a Shoppers on this site," Niki Dwyer, director of development services, told Inside Ottawa Valley. * Comments from the public on the proposal were welcomed by the town's planning department until March 16. * The Class 3 development permit application has not yet been brought before council for consideration and approval. * Additional information in relation to the proposed development can be found under "Current Applications" at carletonplace.ca/town/municipal-services-info/development-services.
