Canton seeks public comment on master plan amendment

The City of Canton, acting as an applicant for the property owners, has filed for a Master Plan amendment to add additional uses to the previously approved uses for the development commonly known as “The Bluffs,” according to a press release.

The additional uses include but are not limited to entertainment venues,; outdoor recreation, which may include but are not limited to camping, walking trails, gardens, water activities, and non-enclosed sporting facilities; hotel/motel; parking areas; and warehouse uses.

Comments may be submitted to the City of Canton by email at comments@cantonga.gov.
