Previous Consultation (Drafts I, II & III)

 Pages 135 & 136 of the Municipal Planning strategy summarize the consultation as follows:

Draft II of the Town's planning documents were released in July of 2018 with committee, individual and Council feedback sought on a variety of issues that have contributed to the formulation of Draft III. Community consultation exercises completed thus far as part of Phase II of the MPS Review are summarized in "Schedule 5" of Draft III of the Municipal Planning Strategy - found here.

It is anticipated that Draft III of the planning documents will seek further community feedback, including a public hearing, in the lead-up to second reading and adoption.

Heritage & Design

Staff are working on updating the Core Area Design Guidelines and will be garnering input from the Town's Design Review Committee & Heritage Committee before these are presented to the Planning Advisory Committee and Council. 

The Town's Residential Architectural Design Guidelines are not included in the scope of this project but will be updated as a future project to align with the adopted policies of the Municipal Planning Strategy and Land Use By-law.

County & Province

Councils in the our region have recently passed motions in support of the 'Statements of Regional Interest' and Town Staff are working on integrating these into Part 1 of the forthcoming Draft 2 of the MPS. The Provincial Statements of Interest must be considerations in any Municipal Planning Strategy and have been a guide in policy development to-date.
