PUBLIC NOTICE
RM of Laird No. 404 Public Notice – Proposed Road Closure and Sale
Public Notice is hereby given that the Council of the Rural Municipality of Laird No. 404 (RM) intends to adopt a Road Closure Bylaw under section 13 of The Municipalities Act.
INTENT: The bylaw is intended to provide a notice of intent to permanently close and sell three road segments legally described as ORA 12-43-06-3 Ext. 0; ORA 125-43-06-3 Ext. 0; and, ORA 13-43-06-3 Ext. 0. Said road segments are located at the western end of Twp Rd. 430 near the crest of slope of the N. Sask River valley.
REASON: The prospective purchaser of the road segments has requested road closure and sale related to its development proposal currently under review by the RM. The desired placement of said development would require road closure to achieve compliance with the regulations of the RM Zoning Bylaw, and it would also correct encroachments of existing development adjacent to the roadway. The subject road segments provide exclusive access to the purchaser’s lands and are used almost exclusively by the prospective purchaser. The developed roadway on the subject land dead-ends at the crest of the slope of the N. Sask River valley. Future extension of said roadway is both impractical and undesirable in the opinion of Council.
PUBLIC INSPECTION: Any person may inspect the bylaw at the RM office during regular business hours, excluding statutory holidays. Draft copies of the proposed bylaw and sale agreement are available from the Town office (hard copy at cost); digital copy is available here: https://rmoflaird.ca/category/rm-notices/.
The Town office is located at The RM office is located at 3025 Central Avenue, Waldheim, SK S0K 4R0.
PUBLIC HEARING: Council will hold a public hearing on May 8, 2025, at 10:00am in the RM office to hear any person or group that feels negatively impacted by the proposed closures. Council will also consider written comments received by the undersigned by May 7, 2025.
