  • Derby Road application

    At the July 20, 2026 meeting of Fort Erie Town Council, Council will consider a planning application involving 19 Derby Road in Crystal Beach.

    The item before Council, Report PBBS-12-1-2026, recommends approval of amendments to both the Town’s Official Plan and Zoning By-law for the property. If approved, Council would also direct staff to prepare the necessary by-laws to implement the changes.

    Planning applications such as this are an important part of managing growth and ensuring future development aligns with the Town’s planning policies and long-term vision for the community. Council’s role is to carefully review the staff report, supporting documentation, and any public input before making a decision.

    Residents who have an interest in this application are encouraged to review the agenda materials in advance of the meeting to better understand the proposal and the recommendations being brought forward by staff.

    As your Ward 5 Councillor, I believe it is important to keep residents informed about significant planning matters coming before Council. I encourage anyone with questions or comments regarding this application to reach out to me or to participate in the Council process.

    Council’s decision on this item will be made during the July 20, 2026 Council meeting following discussion and consideration of the staff report.
