Effets de la consultation

A total of 16 submissions were received, and four (4) comments were submitted directly to the Ministry. The comments received for Official Plan Amendment 2  were related to the following issues: 

Site-specific redesignation requests - These requests were based on land supply maps which were included as supporting materials but are not part of the actual amendment. These site-specific requests will be reviewed in Official Plan Amendment 3 which deals with mapping changes to the county’s Official Plan schedules.

Lack of clarity regarding the employment land needs identified by the county in both the amendment and the supporting Land Needs Assessment (LNA) report. Employment lands will be reviewed in land use schedules in Official Plan Amendment 3.

The intensification targets set by the county and an assertion that more residential land is needed to accommodate the  forecasted growth beyond the lands that are proposed to be added through the Settlement Area Boundary Expansion in Official Plan Amendment 3.
