PREVIEW

About a year ago, council
adopted a new policy encouraging
all applicants proposing zoning
changes or major developments to
liaise with the community through
a public information meeting prior
to council consideration.

The intent is to serve the best in-

terests of both the applicant and —

the community through a forum
where a project can be fully ex-
plained and discussed in an infor-
mal setting.

It is one more step in an open
government process and is not in-
tended to bypass or replace the
formal municipal and council pro-
ceedings. Please take advantage of
the opportunity for an early
preview of any proposals in your
neighborhood. §
