What is an Official Plan?

An Official Plan is a statutory document required by the Province that describes a municipality’s approach to land use over the next twenty years. It addresses the location and form of new housing, industry, offices and shops as well as anticipated needs for infrastructure (e.g. streets, parks, transit, schools, community amenities), all needed for a growing city.

What can you do?

The Official Plan directly influences many aspects of your day to day life in Burlington. It impacts where you live, learn, work, shop, play and how you move around the city. So this is where you come in! As residents of Burlington you are our community experts and we want to hear from you.
