Public Notice is hereby given that the Council of the Town of Battleford intends to consider adopting Bylaw No.10-2026 under The Planning and Development Act, 2007, to amend Zoning Bylaw No. 7-2016.
The intent of Bylaw No. 10-2026 is to:
Introduce Equestrian Facilities as a Discretionary Use within the M – Industrial District, along with specific definitions, development standards, special regulations, and evaluation criteria.

Affected Lands
All lands zone within the C2-Highway Commercial District and M - Industrial District will be affected by this amendment.
Reason for the Amendment:
