TAKE NOTICE that the Town of Oxford will hold a Public Hearing on Thursday, October 3, 2024 beginning at 5:30 pm in the Town Hall Council Chambers, 105 Lower Main Street, Oxford, NS, during a Special Town Council Meeting.
AND TAKE NOTICE that the Public Hearing will be regarding a transfer of municipal property located at 177 Lower Main Street (PID number 25500943) to the Oxford Community Centre Association for the establishment of a Community Centre. The appraised value of the property is $97,500. It is proposed that the transfer of land be for a nominal $1.00.
AND TAKE NOTICE that the reason for this proposed transfer is the numerous benefits the Oxford Community Centre will bring to the Town. The purpose of the Community Centre is to promote community involvement, not just in relation to the Centre’s programming, but also by building relationships with and among people in the community. The Centre will foster a sense of belonging, provide educational opportunities, promote health and wellness, offer recreational activities, and support economic development. It will be a place where local people can come together, share resources, and work towards a common goal of building a stronger and more vibrant community. The Centre will be a gathering place where friendships and social networks are built. It will serve as a neutral ground where people of all ages, ethnicities, and socioeconomic statuses can meet, interact, and engage with each other.
Council will hear submissions in support or opposition to proposed transfer of land. Written submissions may be provided to the Chief Administrative Officer at 105 Lower Main Street, or by email to lcloney@oxfordns.ca no later than Tuesday, October 1, 2024, at 4:00 pm.
