Huntsville Planning Council will hold a public meeting on March 11 to hear an application for the construction of a Nordic Spa at 55 Stephenson Road 7 West in Port Sydney.
To facilitate the project, a Community Planning Permit By-law Amendment is being proposed to change the precinct on the lands from a Community and Rural Business Employment precinct to a
Community and Rural Business Employment precinct, with an exception to permit a Nordic Spa as the only permitted use on the land.
According to the planning notice, a “Nordic Spa shall mean an open space, recreational area, building or buildings, which are operated on a commercial basis and devoted to thermotherapy with the use of saunas, steam rooms, hot and cold pools, and massage. A Nordic Spa may also include the following accessory uses: staff quarters, place of assembly, restaurant, yoga and relaxation facilities, open space (trails/forest bathing), storage, administrative facilities, and other accessory uses, services, equipment or facilities normally incidental to the principal use,” states the notice. “A Nordic Spa does not include a dwelling unit other than an accessory dwelling for the owner or operator or staff quarters that are accessory to the principal use.”

The meeting is scheduled to begin at 1 p.m. on March 11, 2026. You can find the notice HERE.
