Notice of Public Hearing
Amherst Town Council will hold a Public Hearing on Thursday, November 13, 2025, beginning at 5:00 p.m. local time in Town Hall Council Chambers, 98 East Victoria Street, Amherst, NS to hear input in support of, or in opposition to, the new Municipal Planning Strategy (MPS) and accompanying Land Use By-law (LUB).
The new planning documents will guide how land in the Town is planned, developed, and managed in a sustainable and inclusive way that reflects the community’s long-term vision.

It positions the Town to remain resilient and adaptable to future opportunities and challenges.
