Public Hearing -- Institutional Uses

There is a Public Hearing scheduled for Monday, December 9, 2024, at 6 p.m. during a regularly scheduled meeting of Bridgewater Town Council regarding proposed amendments to the Municipal Planning Strategy (MPS) and Land Use By-law (LUB).

These amendments would remove the definition of institutional uses from the LUB, add certain institutional-type uses to the list of permitted uses in appropriate zones, update the definition for rehabilitation and treatment centre, add a definition for emergency shelter, and remove the permission for institutional uses with a residential nature to locate in the Historic Downtown Commercial (C1) and LaHave Commercial (C2) zones.

At this meeting, the public can provide comments in favour of or opposed to the amendments, and Council will then make its decision on whether or not to approve the amendments.
