Sturgeon County Council requests public input on proposed Bylaw 1634/23.
The property owner would like to facilitate RV camping and address existing recreational development on their land at 302 57000 Hwy 44. This land is zoned as R4 – Hamlet Serviced Residential District which does not allow this type of activity.
To operate RV camping and outdoor recreation facilities in Sturgeon County, land must be zoned as REC – Recreational District. The applicant is requesting the land be rezoned to REC – Recreational District, which would allow them to apply for a campground development permit.
Each time land is rezoned, a bylaw is needed to amend the Land Use Bylaw, and a public hearing must be held.
