Lennox and Addington County is currently in the process of developing a Natural Heritage Systems Study.

The Natural Heritage System is made up of wetlands, woodlands, valleylands, watercourses, significant wildlife habitat, areas of natural and scientific interest and the linkages between natural heritage features.  The Province of Ontario requires municipalities to identify Natural Heritage Systems and preserve the diversity and connectivity of these features.

This requirement is translated into policies that inform development, stewardship actions, climate change resiliency, environmental studies, and conservation efforts.

The County will hold a Public Open House, for the purposes of discussing the draft Natural Heritage System Study on:

 

Monday, November 7, 2022

1st Open House: 3:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.

2nd Open House: 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.

 

These meetings will be in person at: Museum of Lennox & Addington County, 97 Thomas Street East, Napanee, Ontario.
