City of Timmins, Environmental Services Department, wishes to advise the public of an emergency watermain repair in the following area:

Area

Gold Centre - Schumacher 

Time of Disruption

Effective immediately. Estimated time of completion is late evening on December 19, 2024. 

Homeowners from Ponderosa St. through Gold Centre will experience short-term loss of water, water pressure or experience brown or rust-coloured water during the repair this evening. Approximate length of repair time is 3-4 hours.

It is recommended not to drink or wash laundry with discoloured water. While it is not harmful to your health, it can stain laundry. Once repairs are complete, turn on the COLD water tap closest to the source (usually your laundry tub tap) and let it run for approximately 15-20 minutes or until the water colour has returned to normal.

City staff would like to thank residents for their patience and cooperation during this necessary work.

NOTICE OF COMPLETE APPLICATION AND PUBLIC MEETING RE: PROPOSED ZONING BY-LAW AMENDMENT

TAKE NOTICE that the Council of the Corporation of the City of Timmins will hold a public meeting on Wednesday, January 8, 2025, at 3:00 p.m. in the Council Chambers, City of Timmins, 220 Algonquin Boulevard East, Timmins, Ontario, to gather public input regarding a proposed Zoning By-law Amendment under Section 34 of the Planning Act, R.S.O 1990, c. P. 13, as amended.

Applicant: Johnston’s Electrical Construction Ltd.

Location: Concession 5, Part of Lot 12, Registered Plan 6R8378, Parts 1 and 4, Parcel 9707 WT, Tisdale Township, City of Timmins (MacLean Drive and Laforest Road)

THE PURPOSE AND EFFECT of the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment is to rezone the subject lands currently zoned Rural (RD-RU) to Highway Commercial (EA-CH) in order to permit all uses in the Highway Commercial (EA-CH) zone. The applicant is proposing to: utilize a portion of the subject lands for a gravel lay down area; and storage of various company equipment including trailers, cargo trailers and cable reels. The applicant is also proposing to construct a 12.2 metre by 24.4 metre future building on the subject lands. Six storage containers are to be located on the site as well.

ANY PERSON may attend the public meeting and/or make written or verbal representation either in support of or in opposition to the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment.

If a person or public body would otherwise have an ability to appeal the decision of Council of the City of Timmins to the Ontario Land Tribunal but the person or public body does not make oral submissions at a public meeting or make written submissions to the City of Timmins before the by-law is passed, the person or public body is not entitled to appeal the decision.

If a person or public body does not make oral submissions at a public meeting, or make written submissions to the City of Timmins before the by-law is passed, the person or public body may not be added as a party to the hearing of an appeal before the Ontario Land Tribunal unless, in the opinion of the Tribunal, there are reasonable grounds to do so.

If you wish to be notified of the decision of the City of Timmins on the proposed zoning by-law amendment, you must make a written request to Steph Palmateer, City Clerk, City of Timmins, 220 Algonquin Boulevard East, Timmins, Ontario, P4N 1B3.
