The meeting registration link is available on the Township website in the Council Calendar on the applicable date.

Purpose and Effect: The purpose and effect of the proposed housekeeping amendment to the Township of East Garafraxa Comprehensive Zoning By-law 60-2004, as amended, is to address matters to improve the application and interpretation of the By-Law. The changes include a number of formatting, technical and interpretation issues that make it easier to use.
