****Update as of December 7th***
Tonight’s Public Hearing has been POSTPONED
The Province’s recent Ministerial Orders, Dec 2 & 4th, require local governments, including the District of Vanderhoof, to restrict public members from attending Council meetings and public hearings. As the Official Community Plan and the District’s Zoning Bylaws are the main guiding documents for our community and in interest of fair process, the District will be postponing tonight’s public hearing until further notice.
