POLL: Industrial option for West Hill Master Plan presented
The City of Prince Albert has now been presented with an industrial option concept map that is part of the West Hill Master Plan (WHMP).
The city has been given two growth concept plans – an industrial and a residential – which officials will present to the public in May in an open house.
The WHMP was first approved by council in 1999 as a guide for future development in the West Hill area. Some of the developments in the area in the years since the plan’s approval have “differed” from the original plan, a new report from city planner Wes Holowachuk said.
“Really, the industrial option was brought forward by [a] past city council, who wanted to pursue what the industrial option would look like over there due to the shortage of industrial land the city currently has and the serviceability of that area. In doing that, the consultant [AECOM] prepared that conceptual map showing the industrial,” Holowachuk said in an interview on Tuesday.
