Greater Napanee Council reviews development charges, $58K building system upgrade
Greater Napanee council held a public meeting on its Development Charges Background Study update during a regular session June 23, and advisory committees looked at a land severance, daycare setback variance, Market Square design and waste diversion plans. Meeting minutes were not yet available for any of the sessions, which means final votes or decisions could not be confirmed.
Council agenda includes reserve transfers, tree motion
Council was scheduled to consider a $58,440 building automation system replacement at 99 Advance Avenue and two year-end surplus transfers: $166,670 to the Solid Waste Reserve and $243,581 to the Winter Control Reserve. A motion opposing removal of mature oak trees on County Road 9 was also on the table, as was approval of a Block Party Kick Off community event. The public meeting portion collected comments on the proposed development charges study, which sets the fees developers pay for growth-related infrastructure.
Committee of Adjustment weighs land severance, daycare variance
The Committee of Adjustment had a land severance application (PLCOR 2026 007) to create a 2-hectare lot on McDonalds Lane, subject to a well pump test, water quality testing and parkland cash-in-lieu. A separate minor variance at 237 Newburgh Road would reduce the rear yard setback from five metres to 2.5 metres to accommodate a childcare centre.
Market Square design concepts reviewed
The Market Square Advisory Committee met with the Bel-Con design team to review preliminary ground-floor plans. Discussions covered accessibility, washrooms, storage, entrance corridors, a coffee bar and the main event space layout.
Waste committee plans compost event
The Waste Diversion Committee discussed its 2026 objectives approved by council, updates to disposal site brochures and planning for a Compost Awareness Day at Market Square.
