Saugeen Conservation Invites Public Feedback on Updated Policies Manual
SAUGEEN WATERSHED, ONTARIO – Bruce, Dufferin, Huron, Grey, and Wellington Counties.
Saugeen Valley Conservation Authority (SVCA) is inviting the public to share their thoughts on the updated Environmental Planning and Regulations (EPR) Policies Manual through an open consultation process.
This important document outlines how SVCA reviews planning and development applications and ensures safety around natural hazards like flooding and erosion. The manual has been updated to reflect current provincial guidelines, improve accessibility, and make it easier for everyone to understand.
The public is encouraged to review the manual and share their feedback through an easy-to-use online form.
The consultation period closes on Monday, January 6th, 2025, so now is the time to have your say. Whether you’re a local resident, developer, farmer, or business owner, your input is valuable in shaping policies that impact development and natural spaces across the region.
“Our goal is to make these policies transparent and user-friendly. This is a chance for the community to help guide decisions that will protect people and property from natural hazards like flooding and erosion.”
- Matt Armstrong, Manager of Environmental Planning and Regulations, SVCA
