The public is invited to review a copy of the proposed Paradise Development Regulations Amendment No. 29, 2025. To see the full amendment please click here.

The Town proposes introducing a minimum front yard landscaping requirement within the zone standards table for the Planned Mixed Development (Residential) (PMDR) and Residential Mixed (RM) zones. Currently, these zones lack specific provisions regulating front yard landscaping, unlike other zones. This absence has led to challenges in maintaining a balance between required parking and green space.

This Public Notice is advertised in accordance with section 14 of the Urban and Rural Planning Act, 2000. The proposed amendment will be available for the public to review from Thursday, May 15, 2025, to Friday, May 30, 2025. Prior to considering the amendment for adoption, Council is inviting the public to provide input. Please submit comments or concerns, in writing (either by mail, by dropping off at the Town Hall, or by email at planning@paradise.ca), to be received by 4:30 p.m., May 30, 2025, to the attention of:
