The Town would like to advise residents that the Public Workshops scheduled for July and August 2023 as part of Phase 2 of the Official Plan Review project have been postponed. At Council’s direction, the workshops will be rescheduled to Fall 2023 to allow for an enhanced level of public participation and ensure sufficient time to review the Background Papers associated with Phase 2. The Town is committed to ensuring strong community engagement and will also be considering additional engagement opportunities in the Fall.
The Official Plan Review Public Survey remains open throughout the summer and the first seven Background Papers are available on the project webpage, with the remaining four papers to follow later this month.
When rescheduled, the Public Workshops will consider the Background Papers, which take a closer look at critical topics that emerged through Phase 1 by providing research and supporting data, considering previous comments received and providing options and recommendations for updating the Town’s existing policies.
