Land Use Bylaw Review:
 COMPLETE
 
Land Use Bylaw 4-2024 passed 3rd reading by Council on September 3, 2024.  Review the new Land Use Bylaw here.  See below for more background on the methods and process used to complete the Land Use Bylaw review.  

 
Project Overview:
The Land Use Bylaw guides land use planning in the County.  At its core, this bylaw focuses on protecting agricultural & environmentally sensitive land, and preventing hazardous & incompatible land uses. 
 
Review of the Land Use Bylaw will ensure that guidance for land use in the County is kept up-to-date with the changing needs of the County of Barrhead residents, and will provide well-informed, transparent, & consistent direction for land use in the County of Barrhead.   

Public Engagement (Completed):
A Land Use Bylaw review relies on solid public engagement.  Information gathered through open houses, public surveys, and other resident feedback has informed Council's discussion & decisions regarding the updated Land Use Bylaw.
 
Opportunities for residents to provide feedback included:
  • June 6, 2024: Public Hearing for proposed Bylaw at Glenreagh Hall
  • March 18 & 19, 2024: evening appointments with Development Officer made available
  • February 16, 2024: open house to review DRAFT changes
  • May 19-July 10, 2023: public survey
  • May 3, 2023: initial information-gathering open house
