TAKE NOTICE THAT, in accordance with the provisions of the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, as amended, this notice is to advise that sufficient information has been presented to deem the application being processed under File ZA-2025-06 as complete.

AND THAT the Council of the Corporation of the Township of Lanark Highlands will hold a PUBLIC MEETING as per procedural By-law on Tuesday, APRIL 14th, 2026, at 6:00 p.m. for the purpose of considering a proposed zoning by-law amendment under Section 34 of the Planning Act.
