The Prince George - District Council meeting held on September 8, 2025, focused on several detailed site plan approvals and modifications for various developments in the area. Key discussions included requests for changes in construction timing and the establishment of new facilities.
One significant proposal involved the Milford Mansions project, located at the intersection of Curry Drive and Lake Melford Avenue. The council reviewed a request to revise the construction timing of a plaza amenity, shifting the approval requirement from the fourth to the fifth residential building permit. This project spans 10.49 acres and is situated in District 4. The council unanimously voted to waive its right to review the proposal, allowing it to proceed without further delay.
Another notable application was from Royal USA Tours, which seeks to develop a 12,795 square foot bus maintenance facility on Hazelwood Drive. This facility will not be open to the public and will operate under limited hours, from 6 AM to 9 PM on weekdays and 6 AM to 7 PM on weekends. The council also deferred this item for further consideration.
Additionally, the Walker Mill Business Park project was discussed, which involves constructing a 17,725 square foot building for industrial use, including a contractor's office and outdoor storage. The council approved a motion to waive its review rights for this project as well.
Lastly, the council addressed the McDonald's development on Ager Road, which includes plans for a 3,683 square foot establishment with a drive-through service. This proposal is also set to move forward with an appeal deadline established for August 14, 2025.
Overall, the meeting highlighted the council's commitment to facilitating local development while ensuring that projects meet community standards and requirements. The next steps for these proposals include scheduled reviews and hearings in the coming months.
