The Committee of Adjustment has been appointed by Council to adjudicate applications for Minor Variance and Consent under the Planning Act.

Alert: Postal Workers' Strike

Due to the postal workers' strike, residents might experience delays in receiving public hearing notices by mail. However, the Committee of Adjustment remains committed to providing public notifications of upcoming hearings as per the Planning Act and its regulations. We will continue to:  

 

  • Publish hearing notices on the City's Public Notices Webpage
  • Email links to hearing agendas to community associations, Councillors' offices and other contacts.
  • Ensure a public hearing notice is posted on the property subject to an application.
