Public Hearing Information

Staff in our Development Services Department are available to assist if you have questions or need more information regarding a particular bylaw or Public Hearing procedure.  In accordance with the formal process for Public Hearings laid out in the Local Government Act, once a Public Hearing has been closed, no members of Council can either receive or respond to any further input, comments or questions regarding the bylaw(s) considered at the Hearing.

Public Hearings:

Section 94 of the Community Charter requires that public (statutory) notices such as for Public Hearings, are posted in a specific way and within a specific timeline.  The Town's process is outlined in "Public Notice Bylaw 2022, No. 2119" (the Town's website and the local newspaper).

There are no Public Hearings scheduled at this time.
