Official Plans

An Official Plan (OP) is a policy document that guides the short-term and long-term development in your community.

The Official Plan applies to all lands within the municipal boundary. The policies within the Official Plan provide direction for the size and location of land uses, provision of municipal services and facilities, and preparation of regulatory bylaws to control the development and use of land.

These types of policies are considered necessary to promote orderly growth and compatibility among land uses.

The Township currently operates under the County of Renfrew's Official Plan which, provides overall guidance to promote growth to match the needs and visions of the local communities and Council. 

To apply for an Official Plan Amendment please submit an application to the Planning Department.
