Plan It Peterborough – Peterborough’s Official Plan Review

Plan It Peterborough, Peterborough’s Official Plan Review, is beginning its next phase of public engagement with the launch of Part 1 of the Draft Official Plan.

The Official Plan Update is being released in two parts which together will form a draft new Official Plan. Part 1 contains strategic policies for the City, connecting to several themes that were previously identified as priorities by the public and stakeholders through Plan It Peterborough while Part 2 will contain more detailed land use policies that implement the policy direction of Part 1. Part 1 is now available for your review:

Part 1 of the Draft Official Plan

Please check the City’s Official Plan Review website at the end of April for the release of Part 2 of the draft Official Plan.

The goal of this public engagement is to re-connect with the community to ensure that the proposed policies are on the right track for realizing the community’s vision for Peterborough’s future. Public and stakeholder input will be used to finalize the new Official Plan for Council’s approval which is anticipated for fall 2016.

A survey is available for you to provide feedback on Part 1 of the City’s Draft Official Plan. Once you have had the opportunity to review Part 1, please tell us what you think by completing the short questionnaire which can be accessed on the City’s Official Plan Review website and here:
