Ontario Professional Planners Institute recognizes Oakville Planning

“Council’s vision for Oakville is to be the most livable town in Canada and so how we manage growth in our town is a priority in reaching that goal,” said Oakville Mayor Rob Burton.

“Our planning services staff met the challenge to create a new official plan that truly expresses the vision our community has for carefully controlled growth. These awards acknowledge that hard work and we are appreciative of the recognition.”

The policies for the Kerr Village plan were built on years of revitalization planning, the community vision from the 2004 Kerr Village Revitalization Study and extensive consultation with neighbourhood residents and business owners.

The North Oakville Secondary Plans Implementation Strategy includes a completely new set of standards and procedures that address zoning, urban design, roads, transit, parking, trails, sustainability and parks.
