URGENT: Zoning for the Purcells Cove Backlands

Hello Neighbours and Friends of the Purcell’s Cove Backlands,

This Thursday, June 19th our Municipal Council will be considering and voting on two key cases pertaining to the zoning of the Purcell’s Cove Backlands. For those of us who wish to conserve the Backlands, save them from higher density development and prevent loss of life and property from building in this known wildfire-prone area, it is critically important that we provide our feedback to Council in advance of this meeting and/or register with the City Clerk to do a presentation to Council.

REQUESTED ACTIONS:

• Please attend the Public Hearing at 1 pm, Thursday, June 19 at City Hall
• Register now to speak for up to 5 minutes at the meeting by emailing [email protected] (you may bring to the meeting two “slides” of your choosing printed on 8 1/2″ x 11″ paper, which can be projected during your presentation)
• Send an early written submission in advance of the meeting from you, your organization and/or encourage your members to do so as well.

Please read the document below on these important issues.
