Notice of Public Information Centre Cedar Island Schedule B Environmental Assessment

The City of Orillia invites you to attend an upcoming public information centre (PIC) discussing the City’s Cedar Island Creek Schedule B Environmental Assessment.

Register to join us virtually. There will be a formal presentation, along with the opportunity to converse virtually. Staff will be available to explain the project, answer your questions, and discuss your thoughts and feedback.

Public Information Centre Overview:

The goal of the study is to identify a stormwater strategy to mitigate frequent stormwater drainage issues experienced on the Cedar Island Road and Davey Drive.

The purpose of the PIC is to share a summary of background data and observations, present the preferred solutions, and to answer and collect feedback. The environmental assessment has evaluated 10 alternatives according to their impact on the natural environment, social and cultural considerations, economic feasibility, and technical engineering restrictions. The preferred solution involves the construction of new catch basins, a sealed gravity storm sewer, a new outlet into Lakeview Crescent Channel, and a new pumping station.

We want your feedback as we continue to shape this important project.

If you can’t attend online on June 9, come back to this webpage (orillia.ca/CedarPIC) after June 16 to review the presentation and complete the survey. Use the survey to complete the Q&A features, leave comments and ask questions by July 16. Your feedback will be incorporated into the project outcomes.

Thank you
