Lot 1 Redden Road
Electoral Area E
Pursuant to Section 464(3) and 467(2)(3) of the Local Government Act, the Regional District ofNanaimo (RDN) advises that a Public Hearing is not being held for proposed “Regional District of Nanaimo Zoning Amendment Bylaw No. 2500.05, 2025” (Bylaw 2500.05). A public hearing is not permitted as an Official Community Plan (OCP) is in effect for the area; the zoning bylaw aligns with the OCP; the bylaw’s sole purpose is to allow a development that includes a residential component; and that residential component comprises at least 50% of the total gross floor area. The proposed development meets these conditions; therefore, a public hearing is not permitted.
Bylaw 2500.05 affects the property shown on the location map to the left. The RDN intends to consider first reading of Bylaw 2500.05 at its regular Board meeting:
Time & Date: Tuesday, June 24, 2025, at 1 p.m.
