PUBLIC HEARING
Proposed Zoning & OCP Amendment
2845 NEILSON STREET
OCTOBER 10, 2024
The City of Merritt will be holding a Public Hearing for Official Community Plan Amendment Bylaw No. 2377, 2024, and Zoning Amendment Bylaw No. 2378, 2024 for the property at 2845 Neilson Street.
PROPOSED CHANGES: Bylaw No. 2377, 2024 proposes to amend the OCP Land Use Designation for the subject property from ‘Low to Medium Density Residential’ to ‘Industrial’.
Bylaw No. 2378, 2024 proposes to amend the Zoning for the subject property from ‘Recreational Commercial (C1)’ to ‘M1 – Light Industrial’.
The Proposed Land Use Designation and Zoning will allow the development of parcel as Light Industrial, similar to the neighbour properties in the City of Merritt. This aligns with the general vision of the corresponding OCP sector of Diamond Vale to direct Industrial development to the area south of Clapperton.
