What does Planning Do?
Planning Services is responsible for the long-range planning of the Town, including managing land uses and promoting efficient, effective and sustainable development.
Implementation of the Town’s Official Plan policies is accomplished through the use of a number of different tools, including secondary plans, subdivision approval, site plan control, zoning, community planning permit system (Our Shores CPPS), part lot control exemptions, Committee of Adjustment, ongoing policy development, and review of previous land-use decisions.
Planning Services works closely with the building services, engineering and economic development departments to respond to general inquiries related to land use in the Town as well as specific inquiries related to development applications.
