Public hearing: Bylaw 1649/24 – Amendment to Land Use Bylaw 1385/17

Notification: Bylaw 1650/24 – Sturgeon Industrial Park Area Offsite Levy Bylaw 1548/21

Sturgeon County Council requests public input on proposed Bylaw 1649/24.

In accordance with Section 692 of the Municipal Government Act, Sturgeon County Council requests public input on proposed Bylaw 1649/24. This Bylaw would redistrict a portion of Lot A, Plan 4595NY from AG – Agriculture District to I4 – Medium Industrial Serviced District.

The property owner would like to bring their existing fleet service/ trucking business, located at 55013 Hwy 825 (legal description: Lot A, Plan 4595NY) into compliance with the County’s Land Use Bylaw. This land is currently zoned as AG Agriculture, which does not allow this type of activity.

And, in accordance with Section 648 of the Municipal Government Act, you are hereby advised that Sturgeon County Council is considering including the same lands within the Sturgeon Industrial Park Area Offsite Levy Bylaw.

Each time land is rezoned, a bylaw is needed to amend the Land Use Bylaw, and a public hearing must be held.
