Planning Services

The purpose of land use planning is to manage land and resources so that current and future residents have:

  • A safe and healthy environment to live in;
  • Access to adequate and affordable housing;
  • Options to get where they need to go; and,
  • Spaces to meet, gather, work and play.

Land use planning aims to balance planning for the built environment with protection of our agricultural and natural environment lands.

Planning Services makes recommendations to Council on land use policies that affect the long and short-term development of the community, including zoning by-laws, subdivisions, site plan agreements, heritage issues, as well as many other areas related to the development and land use.
