The above "Draft II" planning documents are based on documents prepared by FOTENN Consultants Inc., a planning and design consulting firm hired to lead Phase I of the Town’s MPS review. The draft documents attempt to capture the contributions of the public, Town Committees, Council and Staff. Throughout Phase II of the review, Town Staff will continue to shape and revise these draft documents to reflect the aspirations of the community through on-going consultations with the public, Town Committees and Council. The draft policies, bylaws and extents (i.e. zoning) laid out in these documents do not represent the final outcome of the review process and are provided for discussion and feedback.
