Nelson Street Park Rezoning By-law Tonight


Despite resident opposition, Nelson Street Park in Fort Frances could soon be turned into housing lots.

A by-law to rezone the park comes before town council at its meeting tonight.

Councillors are being recommended they approve it based on a report from town planner Faye Flatt who addresses comments made by residents at a meeting a week ago.

In her report, Flatt says most residents outlined no land-use planning reasons for opposing the rezoning.

She also states a petition gave no reasons for opposition either.
