Community Planning

Community Planning ensures that changes which occur in the community enhance the quality of life, respect the natural setting, and occur in a manner which is predictable and respectful of the aspirations of residents and business owners.

Long-term community planning helps us to forecast and address future community needs. It provides us with knowledge so that we may predict and prepare for challenging times and it establishes goals and policies to direct and manage change. Development occurs in accordance with the policies and goals established by community planning and other relevant legislation.
