The Region of Durham, in coordination with the townships of Scugog, Brock, and Uxbridge, has retained WSP Canada Inc. to undertake a North Durham Agriculture-related and On-Farm Diversified Uses Study.
The purpose of the study is to provide recommendations on policies for agriculture-related and on-farm diversified activities, and the application and approval processes for these activities within the townships.
The main objectives of the study are to support economic viability within the rural and agricultural areas of North Durham by better enabling agriculture-related and on-farm diversified uses and in doing so, help farmers.
The Township of Scugog is updating its Official Plan and Zoning By-law to implement recommendations that WSP provided the township, said a statement.
The proposed amendments apply to all lands in the Township of Scugog. On this basis, no location map has been provided with this notice, it said.
Public Meeting:
Scugog will hold a Statutory Public Meeting to provide interested parties with the opportunity to learn more about the proposed amendments, make comments, and provide additional information. This meeting will be held on:
Monday, September 15 at 6:30 pm
Township of Scugog Municipal Office (Council Chambers on Upper Level)
