A public hearing for a property near the Prince George Regional Correctional Centre has been rescheduled for the Jan. 13 city council meeting after previously being cancelled.
The hearing for 880 Guay Rd. was originally supposed to take place at the Dec. 16, 2024 meeting but staff said they were cancelling it because with the then-ongoing postal strike, they couldn’t be sure that notice went out to all the relevant parties.
As previously reported by The Citizen, L&M Engineering is applying on behalf of owners Eastway Sand & Gravel to have a 22.7-hectare portion of the property rezoned from AG: Greenbelt and P6: Special Institutional to M2: General Industrial.
The firm also wants 3.3 hectares of the land rezoned from AF: Agriculture and Forestry and P6: Special Institution to AG: Greenbelt to create a buffer zone of trees to reduce noise made on site.
That would allow for Tyrod Industrial to relocate its operations to the property and then expand them.
Public hearings at city council meetings start at 7 p.m. in chambers on the second floor of city hall.
To phone into the public hearing, residents can call 1-877-708-3350 and enter the access code 1269574#.
Residents can also attend the public hearing in person or send written comments by email to [email protected], by fax at 250-561-0183 or in person to the corporate officer on the fifth floor of city hall.
