After tabling the issue during the June 24th County Council meeting, the County of Grande Prairie is hosting a public hearing to hear feedback from residents regarding several land use bylaw assessments.
The subject in question would see four potential changes to different lots of land in the county to accommodate a number of subdivision applications.
The first would see a portion of the northwest corner of the boundary of Valhalla Centre changed from Urban Reserve to Intensive Recreation to allow for a single-lot subdivision. The second would see a portion of a lot located north of Highway 672 changed from agricultural to medium industrial use for a potential subdivision. The purpose of the third amendment would see a portion of a lot to the southwest of Highway 672 changed from agricultural to medium industrial use, and the final amendment would see a portion of a lot southeast of Highway 674 changed from county residential use to agricultural use.
Public hearings are scheduled during regular council meetings beginning at 1:00 p.m. However, the length of each hearing is variable, and exact start times cannot be provided.
Anyone wishing to speak on the matter can do so at the hearing or provide written comments in advance. The county says written submissions must be received by 4:30 p.m. the Thursday before the scheduled hearing.
Written submissions are asked to be sent to the county’s Planning and Development Services department via email or at 10001 84th Avenue, Clairmont Alberta.
