Sturgeon County Council requests public input on proposed Bylaw 1647/24.
Sturgeon County is proposing amendments to the Land Use Bylaw (Bylaw 1385/17) Public Open Space District (POS) and Environmental Preservation (EP) Districts:
- To remove reference to the terms ‘public’ in order to focus on land use and not ownership.
- To amend the list of permitted and discretionary uses within both districts.
A bylaw is needed to amend the existing Land Use Bylaw, and a public hearing must be held.
