CHILLIWACK – Chilliwack councillors will hold a public hearing today on a proposed residential daycare application in Fairfield Island brought forward by a local realtor.

A city staff report from city planner Navdeep Sidhu indicates the proposed use is not currently permitted with the R1-A zone. As a result, a temporary use permit is required. After three years, the temporary use permit would be required to continue using the site for an additional three years.
