This Neighbourhood Meeting is your first opportunity to hear about a proposed development from the applicant, understand the City’s planning approval process and timelines and give you the chance to ask questions. This is a preliminary meeting to provide residents with information before the application is reviewed by City staff and considered by City Council. A Statutory Public Meeting will be scheduled at a later date, in accordance with the Planning Act.

Innovative Planning Solutions Inc., on behalf of St. Joseph Developments Inc., is seeking input from the public on proposed Amendments to the Official Plan and Zoning By-law for lands known municipally as 49 Miller Drive in the City of Barrie (see Key Map below).

The proposal is intended to facilitate a future, residential development that comprises 611 residential units including 9.50 hectares of Natural Heritage System and a 2.27 hectare Stormwater Management Block. The residential units will consist of 23 single detached units, 230 street townhouse units, 208 back-to-back townhouse units and 150 medium/high density condominium units. For more information please visit the proposed development webpage.

This neighbourhood meeting will be held in a virtual forum with electronic participation via ZOOM. To participate in the virtual neighbourhood meeting, you will need access to a computer with internet service or a telephone.
