Proposal details

On October 17, 2024, the County of Perth adopted its new Official Plan by By-law 4003-2024. The ministry is seeking feedback on the council adopted Official Plan and will review all comments before recommendations are provided to the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing for a decision in accordance with Sections 17 and 26 of the Planning Act.

The new Official Plan proposes to replace the current County Official Plan and those of its Lower-Tier municipalities to ensure consistent provincial and local land use policy implementation across the County. The new Official Plan sets out a vision and comprehensive strategy for the County to address current local priorities and align with provincial land use direction. Settlement area boundary expansions are proposed to accommodate the anticipated urban land needs of the County.

If approved, the new Official Plan would apply across the County.
