GUELPH – The City of Guelph is hosting a public information session on the Clair-Maltby Secondary Plan.
The Clair-Maltby area in the south end of the city is located at the northern edge of Puslinch Township.
The meeting, on March 28 from 7 to 9pm in the council chambers of Guelph city hall, will focus on planning for growth while protecting the moraine, water resources and natural heritage resources.
Members of the public are invited to join community members, interested stakeholders and members of the Environmental Advisory Committee, River Systems Advisory Committee, Clair-Maltby Community Working Group and Clair-Maltby Technical Advisory Group at this information session to learn more about technical work undertaken thus far.
Dave Belanger, the city’s water supply program manager, will describe how the Grand River Source Water Protection Plan and the City’s Water Supply Master Plan inform the secondary plan process
Guelph MPP Mike Schreiner will discuss how proposed Bill 71 – An Act to Conserve the Paris Galt Moraine works with the Secondary Plan to protect the Paris Galt Moraine
The Secondary Plan Project Team will present the Comprehensive Environmental Impact Study (CEIS) Phase 3 Impact Assessment.
Meeting participants will have the opportunity to ask questions for clarification following each speaker.
The Phase 3 Impact Assessment is a technical document that assesses the potential impacts of the planned future development to the local and neighbouring environmental systems and features.
The report also establishes preliminary management requirements. The findings of the assessment will inform refinements to the land use concept and establish recommended management strategies.
The CEIS Year 3 Monitoring Report is now available at https://guelph.ca/plans-and-strategies/clair-maltby-secondary-plan/cm-documents/.
It can also be found on the project webpage, guelph.ca/clair-maltby, under “documents”.
Several technical reports are now posted on the project webpage.
