Municipality of Sioux Lookout encouraging community to participate in Official Plan review public survey

Tim Brody - Editor

The Municipality of Sioux Lookout is encouraging the community to share its thoughts on the future of Sioux Lookout through an Official Plan review public survey.
The Municipality is updating its Official Plan, which according to the Municipality, “helps guide how our community grows, protects what matters, and plans for housing, services, transportation, jobs, waterfronts, and natural areas across Urban Sioux Lookout, Hudson, Drayton, rural areas, and shoreline communities.”
“Your input will help identify priorities for the next version of the Plan and guide future decisions across our community,” the Municipality added.
The Municipality advised that the survey takes approximately 10 minutes to complete, adding people may skip any questions and answer only the topics that matter most to them.
Key themes for public input include:

• Housing & Community Growth
  
• Downtown & Commercial Areas
  
• Tourism, Rail, Airport & Employment Lands
  
• Transportation, Trails & Accessibility
  
• Lakes, Wetlands & Natural Areas
  
• Public & Indigenous Engagement
  

People can complete the survey at https://slkt.me/4eBlkI6
Paper copies of the survey are available from the Development Services Department at the Municipal Office.
The Municipality is asking that people not include personal information that they do not want shared publicly. 
The Municipality further advised that survey results may be summarized in public reports, with responses reviewed in aggregate wherever possible.
