Council Adopts Long Range Planning Program
Last August, Council adopted a new Municipal Development Plan which describes how Council intends to manage future growth and development within the County. Our new growth strategy identifies several potential development opportunities for multi-lot housing and industrial and commercial business developments. Some of these development areas already have plans in place, which will have to be reviewed and updated. In other cases, we will need to prepare new area structure plans to establish what kind of development is appropriate in these new development areas. With the pressure to get these plans in place as quickly as possible, a three-year work program has been created.
