BUCKHORN COMMUNITY IMPROVEMENT PLAN

Attention all residents!

On April 19, 2016 at 1:00 pm at the Council Chambers of Trent Lakes, there will be a public meeting to discuss the Buckhorn Community Improvement Plan.

The purpose of the Community Improvement Plan is to establish a program for municipal financial incentives to encourage the rehabilitation and improvement of private lands and to coordinate public and private works in a way that will make the most efficient use of public infrastructure.  The policies in this plan would enable Council to offer financial incentives to private property owners.  These incentives are intended to encourage property owners to improve the appearance of their lands and buildings in accordance with guidelines adopted by Council.  The Community Improvement Plan also establishes a strategy for public works improvements for the community including walkways, streetscape improvements and landscaping.

When approved by Council, the plan would enable the Municipality to give financial incentives to building and business owners for improving landscaping; improvements to commercial buildings and replacing existing signs.

Any person may attend the public meeting and make written and/or verbal representation.  Additional information relating to the Community Improvement Plan is available for inspection at the Municipal office during regular office hours.
