HTFC Planning & Design is hosting an open house on April 14 to present updates to the Thompson Planning District Development Plan and Thompson Zoning By-law, inviting residents to provide input on policies that will guide future growth in the district. The event runs from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the Ma-Mow-We-Tak Friendship Centre.
This is the second open house for the project. HTFC Planning & Design will share what they learned from last year’s consultation and encourage residents to share their thoughts on the vision, goals, and policies that will shape future development and land use decisions within the Thompson Planning District.
The open house will take place in the Multi-Purpose Room at Ma-Mow-We-Tak Friendship Centre, 4 Nelson Road, Thompson. The presentation begins at 7 p.m., and coffee and snacks will be provided. For more information, residents can contact Lyle Safronetz at 204-677-7922 or lsafronetz@thompsonn.ca, or visit www.thomposon.ca.
The Development Plan is a by-law that guides all land use decisions within the planning district. Residents with questions or input on the proposed changes are encouraged to attend.
