SIOUX LOOKOUT – The Municipal Council of Sioux Lookout is asking for public input on the intention of the new Municipal by-law to close part of a road allowance and to authorize the sale of the lands to the owners of the abutting lands at the location of Drayton Range.
The application intends to fix the accidental encroachment of the road into the surrounding private area
Only a portion of the road allowance is to be closed and sold to fix the situation and to ensure that public access along the road allowance is maintained.
This application would also transfer a portion of Abram Lake Road that is currently owned by the applicant to the municipality.
The council is asking residents to take note that the by-law will be considered by council at a virtual Public Hearing on Wednesday, June 15, at 5:30 p.m. via Zoom.
Any person wishing to comment on the proposed closing or sale is requested to submit comments in writing to the Planning Coordinator at the below address.
