Stittsville Advocacy & Community Building A place to promote community advocacy & share ideas or concerns as Stittsville transitions from village-->small suburb-->growing suburban hub. Get involved!

Expect info on development applications, municipal issues & fostering a solid sense of community connection. Membership of the SVA is open to any resident of Stittsville, 18 years of age or older, and any person who owns or manages a business in Stittsville. In addition to advocating for the community on issues such as residential and commercial planning/development, better transportation and transit, and preserving Stittsville’s village character, the SVA and its volunteers are also responsible for organizing popular community events such as Art in the Park, Canada Day in Stittsville, and the Stittsville Parade of Lights. Please let us know if you'd like to volunteer. Your help and involvement is always appreciated, and high school students can earn credit toward meeting their community service requirements.

I heard a lot of questions and concerns about policing during the election campaign, so I thought I'd share this info about how OPS has realigned its service deployment to better meet community needs:

Council approved a zoning amendment to allow a new subdivision on Hazeldean Road near Mantra Street, in Stittsville. The developer plans to build 347 new homes with a mix of detached homes, townhomes and apartment-style housing. The amendment would protect open space along the Carp River and support future pathways connecting nearby neighbourhoods. Construction cannot begin until required site work is completed and floodplain mapping for the area is updated.

My name is Tanya Hein, and I've been running this page for more than 15 years. The goal is to promote community engagement as Stittsville grows.

I am also running to become Stittsville's councillor in the upcoming municipal election.

A volunteer from an opposing campaign approached me and questioned whether it is 'tricky' of me to continue to operate this page during the campaign. I disagreed, as I don't hide my role here, but neither do I advertise it. The page isn't about me and I don't benefit from it. It is simply a tool to promote community interest and participation in municipal process and changes that affect Stittsville.

However I believe in transparency, and on the off chance anyone not related to a campaign has a concern, I wanted to add this clarifying post.

The page will continue to include mostly planning and development issues, with occasional general election information related to Stittsville (Ward 6), or other information of interest as has been done for the last decade and a half. There won't be any individual campaigning.

FYI, your 2026 candidates are:

Marie-Ange Ahinful
Tanya Hein
Kevin Hua
Paul Meek
Sheetal Narwal
Devin O'Brien
Theresa Qadri
Mani Sharma
Chelsea Walton

The City has received a Site Plan Control application for 6115, 6159, and 6141 Flewellyn Road. The site is located along Flewellyn Road and comprises a block within the Magnolia subdivision. The applicant is proposing to develop a Planned Unit Development (PUD) consisting of stacked dwellings with 268 dwelling units. FYI: A PUD is two or more residential use buildings on a plot of land that is considered one lot for zoning purposes.
