Public Consultation Notice: Natural Hazard Map updates

March 27, 2023

NORTH STORMONT, Ontario - South Nation Conservation (SNC) will be hosting a public information session for residents to learn more about new floodplain and erosion hazard maps for areas along the Ottawa River in Clarence-Rockland and Alfred-Plantagenet. A copy of the draft map is enclosed. To view the interactive property map, please visit www.nation.on.ca/consultations.

Natural hazard maps are used by municipalities and SNC when updating official plans and zoning schedules, and in reviewing development applications to protect people and property from natural hazards and guide sustainable development activities.

Development projects within natural hazard areas (like floodplains) require permission from the Conservation Authority before proceeding. SNC updates natural hazard maps on behalf of its partner municipalities.

MEETING DETAILS:
Lucien-Delorme Community Centre
5000 rue du Centre Wendover, Ontario K0A 3K0  Wednesday, March 29th, 2023
6 to 8 p.m.

Following the information session, residents who wish to learn more can schedule an online meeting with SNC staff, or in-person (by appointment) at SNC’s office in Finch, Ontario.

Meetings may be scheduled on weekdays and evenings between April 3 and April 14.
