Update: 2025-10-02
Description
In this episode of Echo Essentials, host Chris Piekarski sits down with the City of North Bay’s Planning Manager Beverley Hillier to unpack the long-awaited Trout Lake Watershed policy review.
Beverley reveals the reason why lot creation was frozen in the 90s, what 400+ new lots could mean for Trout Lake, and how phosphorus, septic systems, and shoreline buffers are now at the center of North Bay’s environmental planning.
They also dig into the next phase of the Downtown Waterfront Master Plan, community engagement strategies, and how the City can continue to develop downtown.
