Due to technical difficulties the March 8, 2022 Public Hearing will be rescheduled to a later date.

Tonight’s public hearing has been postponed due to a technical issue with the toll free dial in that was outside the City’s control. The toll free number for the public hearing on Zoom was unavailable for some users (Shaw vs Telus) due to a routing issue between carriers.

Council wants to be certain no one is excluded from speaking and has therefore postponed the public hearing. A new date will be posted as soon as possible.

What is a Public Hearing?

A Public Hearing is a vital part of Council’s review when applications are made to change the City’s Official Community Plan or Land Use Bylaw. It provides the public with a way to present their views to Council on items contained in the public hearing agenda. It is not a question and answer period. The Public Hearing is Council’s opportunity to listen to members of the public to hear their views or receive their written submissions on items contained in the public hearing agenda. Council is not able to discuss and debate the topic at the public hearing.
