Public Input Requested on a Proposed Roundabout on Grand Lake Road

The Council of the Cape Breton Regional Municipality (CBRM) is seeking the public’s input on a proposed amendment to the Municipal Planning Strategy and the Land Use By-law which would permit the relocation of Kent Building Supplies to a site fronting on the south side of Grand Lake Road just west of the City Motorsports/Polaris site at 914 Grand Lake Road.

In addition to having to amend the zoning to permit a Kent Building Supplies, the Municipal Planning Strategy needs to be amended to permit this business development to be accessed via a roundabout located on Grand Lake Road. The CBRM is requesting the public’s input on this proposed change in policy via an online survey.
