The date is set for a joint public hearing regarding the City and County’s recently drafted Intermunicipal Development Plan.
The Intermunicipal Development Plan is described as a long-term, strategic plan required by the province that outlines a vision for development near municipal boundaries. The City and County have been updating their existing IDP since 2019.
During the hearing on October 15th, both County and City council members will have the chance to ask questions about the draft IDP. Residents are encouraged to attend and share their opinions on the proposal, and after the hearing, each council will review the feedback and decide on the approval of the draft IDP during their regular meetings.
The hearing is scheduled from 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. at Teresa Sargent Hall in the Montrose Cultural Centre.
Residents can review the final draft of the IDP before the hearing, or attend the upcoming open house on October 7th. The drop-in event runs from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. at Teresa Sargent Hall at the Montrose Cultural Centre.
