The Town recently passed the Community Planning Permit By-law (By-law 2022-97). On January 31, 2023, this By-law was deemed in full force and effect for all lands not subject to site specific appeals. This By-law has town-wide effect, except where it is subject to site specific appeals, and replaces the Town of Huntsville Comprehensive Zoning By-law and Site Plan Control By-law.
Please note that Building Permit requirements have not changed, and further information about Community Planning Permit requirements and applications can be found on the links below.
