A review of the City of Thompson’s Development Plan and Zoning By-laws took place at a meeting earlier this year.

A followup meeting set for June had to be postponed due to the northern wildfires but a future meeting is still in the works.

Mayor Colleen Smook commented yesterday on City Beat.

“Basically on the update of the development plan and the new zoning by-laws, we are currently working with consultants to organize another engagement session hopefully this month.”  

Smook said when the meeting date is announced, she hopes to see a large community presence.

She indicated this will be the perfect forum to bring forward suggestions and ideas on how to improve the area near the Burntwood River and Millennium Trail that was cleared of trees to mitigate risks from this summer’s fires.
