Consultation has concluded

In January 2020 Municipal Council approved a new Municipal Planning Strategy and Land Use By-law. These documents regulate land use and development activity for areas outside the Village of Chester. The Village is regulated by a Secondary Planning Strategy and Land Use By-law. Staff are now undertaking a review of the Village of Chester planning documents.

The format and structure of the Village of Chester Plan will match the Municipal Plan, however, the policies and regulations created within the Village documents will be tailored to address the unique opportunities, issues and challenges within the Village.

    Hello,

    Regulations on burning fall outside of the scope and are not regulated by the Municipal Planning Strategy and Land Use By-law. However, Council has adopted the Outdoor Fire By-law, which controls burning for the Village of Chester and surrounding area. You can view the Outdoor Burning By-law at the following link: https://webfiche.district.chester.ns.ca/WebLink/ElectronicFile.aspx?docid=740267&dbid=0&repo=CHESTER

    Alternatively, you can contact the Community Development Department at 902-275-2599 to speak with the Fire Services Coordinator for more information on the Outdoor Burning By-law.
