South Nation Conservation (SNC) invites you to attend an online public information session to learn more about new floodplain and erosion hazard maps along Findlay Creek and North Castor River within the City of Ottawa.
Join us online: Tuesday, November 10th, from 7:00 - 8:00 pm at www.youtube.com/SouthNationCA.
Natural hazard maps are used by the municipalities and SNC when updating official plans and zoning schedules, and in reviewing development applications to protect people and property from natural hazards and guide sustainable development activities.
Development projects within natural hazard areas (like floodplains) require permission from the Conservation Authority before proceeding. SNC updates natural hazard maps on behalf of its partner municipalities when requested.
The virtual session will include an overview presentation from SNC staff on the new floodplain and erosion hazard mapping within your area.
Following the information session, residents who wish to learn more can schedule an online meeting with SNC staff, or in-person (by appointment only) at SNC’s office in Finch, Ontario. Meetings may be scheduled on weekdays and evenings between November 16th and 27th. Please contact info@nation.on.ca or call 1-877-984-2948.
