Welcome

mayor-floyd-pinto.jpgThis web site has been established and maintained to provide you with the most up-to-date information about the review of the municipality’s Official Plan.

The Township Official Plan is a document that establishes a vision for the future of the Township.  It sets out our goals, objectives and policies for a wide range of matters that will guide the future decisions of Council.

It is an important document as it sets out how and where we want to grow.  It also sets out policies on matters such as the environment, transportation and other infrastructure, agriculture, rural lands, aggregate development, commercial and industrial uses, recreation and heritage.

As the Province and the County of Simcoe have issued new legislation, regulations and policies, it is time for the municipality to review our own Official Plan.  Our current Official plan has served us well, and we want to build on it to meet the needs of our future with your input and ideas.

As we have been undertaking this review, we have obtained valuable and insightful input from residents.  The County and Province have also continued the development of polices and growth strategies.  We want to ensure that the latest information and input from residents is incorporated in our new Official Plan and are therefore taking the time to incorporate this into the new Draft Official Plan.

This website is intended to provide a full range of information in an easy to navigate format as we try to make sure that our residents have access to the best information possible to participate in the development of our new Official Plan.  We want to make sure that you have information, the ability to participate, and we very much want to listen to your input.

Please continue to participate! Your Mayor and Council welcome your ideas and comment. Feel free to get in touch with any of us and share your ideas of how to make our great Township even better!

Floyd Pinto

Mayor
