Economic Development

The Township is exploring options for public electric vehicle (EV) charging stations to support residents, seasonal property owners, visitors, and local businesses. Your feedback will help us determine:

• Where stations should be located
•  What type of chargers are most needed
•  How often they would be used
•  How EV charging could support local businesses and tourism
• Whether you own an EV or not, your input matters!

The survey takes about 5 minutes and will help guide North Kawartha Council’s decisions on future EV infrastructure, partnerships, and funding opportunities.

Let’s work together to build a greener, more connected North Kawartha! 

Spectra Point Inc., agents of Rogers Communications Inc., are proposing to install a 90-metre guyed wireless communications tower at 1480 County Road 504, Apsley. The proposed tower will improve 4G and 5G wireless services and enhance emergency communications for police, fire, and EMS in the area. As part of the public consultation process through Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED), nearby property owners have been notified by mail or courier.
