Draft Official Plan – How it Works

8

  • Looks to King Township in 2031 – no update required for 10

years (however – very likely it will be updated again when Regional MCR completed)

  • Designed to minimize Amendments
  • Differentiates between the vision, guiding principles, objectives

and policy directions and the policies themselves.

  • The use of words in conjunction with a policy is also deliberate:

“shall”, “may”, “should”, “promote” - all have different meaning.

  • The Draft Official Plan does not provide for expansions to the

Villages or Hamlets
