Background
The County of Haliburton has many lakes that serve important environmental, economic and social roles. The health of our lakes is important for residents and businesses.
The County of Haliburton has retained Hutchinson Environmental Sciences Ltd (HESL) and J.L. Richards & Associates Ltd. (JLR) to provide independent professional recommendations on a new Shoreline Preservation By-law for the County. This includes a review of the scientific literature related to shoreline preservation, an environmental scan of other municipalities and consultation to gauge residents and stakeholders opinion and feedback.
Purpose
As part of the public consultation process, HESL and JLR are hosting a Virtual Open House to seek feedback on scientific literature review and options for the shoreline preservation by-law.
Due to the present COVID-19 pandemic, a traditional Open House cannot be hosted at the Town Hall. The Virtual Open House will offer the same sort of viewing and commenting experience remotely.
