The Agricultural and Rural Affairs Committee’s meeting this month should be routine, with only consultative agenda items.
The meeting begins at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday inside Room 264 at Hamilton City Hall. Here are the links for the meeting agenda, and the YouTube live stream.
Here are three agenda items of note:
- Update on City’s private tree bylaw review
- Review of Development Charges
- Upcoming Housekeeping Official Plan Amendments
Items of Note
Private tree bylaw review: City staff are in the initial engagement phase of the City’s private bylaw review. They will speak to the committee seeking feedback and suggestions.
Review of Development Charges: The agenda does not explain what this item will entail. The City is currently reviewing all its development charges following a motion from Council to review if Hamilton can offer incentives or decrease fees as other municipalities are doing.
Upcoming Housekeeping Official Plan Amendments: There are no details in the agenda. Generally speaking, this indicates the City will brief the committee about changes that will effect rural land-use planning.
