Proposal details
On June 29, 2022, Peterborough County adopted the new Official Plan pursuant to sections 26 and 17 of the Planning Act by By-law number 2022-47. The county official plan is now before the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing for a decision under the Planning Act.
The new Peterborough County Official Plan outlines a comprehensive framework of new and revised policies to guide growth and development within the County to the year 2051 to conform with provincial plans such as A Place to Grow: The Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe, 2019, as amended ("A Place to Grow") and the Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan. The new County of Peterborough Official Plan proposes policies addressing climate change and the protection of water resources, natural heritage and agricultural systems. Further, the new Peterborough County Official Plan proposes new policies related to long-term infrastructure and employment area planning.
The county has also requested an alternative intensification target for its settlement areas.
If approved, the new county official plan would apply to the entirety of lands within Peterborough County.
