Natural hazard maps are used by municipalities and SNC when updating official plans and zoning schedules, and in reviewing development applications to protect people and property from natural hazards and guide sustainable development activities.

Development projects within natural hazard areas (like floodplains) require permission from the Conservation Authority before proceeding. SNC updates natural hazard maps on behalf of its partner municipalities.

Following the information session, residents who wish to learn more can schedule an online meeting with SNC staff, or in-person (by appointment) at SNC’s office in Finch, Ontario. Meetings may be scheduled on weekdays and evenings between April 3rd and April 14th .
