TAKE NOTICE that the Township of Tiny is undertaking a Master Plan Class Environmental Assessment (Master Plan) to identify the preferred approaches and solutions for the supply and treatment of municipal drinking water to existing and future residents. This assessment will develop and evaluate options for increasing the resiliency of the township’s 16 municipal drinking water systems and for expansion of the systems to accommodate anticipated growth in Tiny.

The Master Plan follows the requirements of the Municipal Engineers Association (MEA) Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (October 2000, amended in 2007, 2011, 2015, and 2023).

Public Information Centre No. 1

A Public Information Centre (PIC) will be held in-person and virtually to present the drinking water infrastructure needs and concerns. There will be a PowerPoint presentation followed by a question-and-answer period.

Date: Monday August 28, 2023

Time: 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.

In-person location: Township of Tiny Council Chambers, 130 Balm Beach Road West

Virtual attendees can join the meeting by accessing the Zoom link that will be available on the project webpage at www.tiny.ca/WaterMasterPlan. The presentation will be recorded and posted on the project webpage following the PIC.

Comments will be accepted until September 14, 2023, by email at jcovey@tathameng.com. As well, comments can be submitted during the PIC or by using the online comment form that will be linked on the project webpage. Following this PIC, comments will be reviewed, and alternative solutions will be developed and evaluated based on the information received.
