Public Meeting - 25K for homeowners to build units

The City of North Bay is considering proposed amendments to encourage more housing options in our community.

These amendments include a proposed new incentive to the City Growth Community Improvement Plan – the Additional Housing Unit Grant – which would provide up to $25,000 to help property owners create more residential units within the urban settlement area.

In addition, proposed updates to the Official Plan and Zoning By-law would allow up to three Additional Dwelling Units on a property and help streamline approvals for routine planning matters.

A Public Meeting will be held on March 24 at 6 p.m. Everyone is welcome to attend and share their input. Written comments will also be accepted.
