Marianne Wilkinson Councillor, Kanata North PUBLIC MEETING ON TOWN CENTRE ZONING
A group of residents have been meeting on the zoning in the Central Business District south of Campeau Drive. They have been developing recommendations that both meet the official plan and minimize impact on residents living north of Campeau. They have met with a representative of the Hilton group which plans to build a resident hotel (long term) in the area and found that the company was open to their suggestions on location and scale of the building. On December, 13 at 7:00 p.m. in Hall C, at the Mlacak Centre, 2500 Campeau Rd. there will be a final public meeting on this zoning. It is your opportunity to hear from the local group, the lead planner, myself and the developer, to raise questions and suggestions and help to come up with a plan that best meets the needs of all involved. It is anticipated that the staff report on the zoning will go to the Planning Committee on January 14 for approval. Those who have submitted comments will receive a copy of the report to the Committee in advance of the meeting.
