The Official Plan is a policy document prepared under the Planning Act that will set the vision and direction for growth and development to the year 2051.

The new draft builds on an initial draft that was released for consultation in June 2019 by incorporating changes to address public, agency, First Nations and provincial comments, and to reflect the results of a Land Needs Assessment that determined the City’s development land requirement to 2051

The proposed Official Plan and the final Land Needs Assessment are now available for review on the City’s website and through Connect Peterborough.

The City will be organizing a final series of online public information sessions throughout August and September to help build awareness of the proposed Official Plan as it moves forward to approval.

When the details for the information sessions are finalized, they will be posted here.

Those wanting to receive updates regarding the Official Plan and upcoming events are invited to subscribe to the City’s Official Plan blog or to Connect Peterborough.
