Housing Subdivision for O'Chiese First Nation - 49 Lots
Official title: O'Chiese First Nation Education Way North End Subdivision
O'Chiese First Nation wants to build a 49-lot housing subdivision on their reserve. The project includes clearing trees, installing water and sewer lines, and paving an existing access road. This is an environmental assessment for on-reserve infrastructure development.
Why This Matters
This project addresses housing needs for O'Chiese First Nation members. If you're a community member or live nearby, construction could affect local roads and utilities during development.
What Could Change
If approved, 49 new housing lots would be developed with full infrastructure including water, sewer, power, and gas connections. Two new culverts would replace the existing one under the access road, and the road would be paved.
Key Issues
- Environmental impacts of tree clearing and land grading
- Water and sanitary system installation on reserve land
