Working Groups continue to meet

The process of updating the OCP began in Spring 2024 with the formation of subcommittees/working groups to review and recommend changes and updates to policies and objectives for specific topics, including:

• Abundant Food Systems (Agriculture)
• Compact and Complete Neighbourhoods
• Diversified and Coordinated Economy
• A Vibrant Downtown
• Natural Environments, Outdoor Activities and Access
• Visible and Vibrant Arts, Culture and Heritage
• Social Well-Being and Accessible Recreation
• Integrated and Active Transportation Network

Working groups are comprised of invited stakeholders as well as members of the general public who were selected through an expression of interest process.

The working groups are actively meeting and it is anticipated that their policy reviews will be complete by early Fall 2024.

Periodically, throughout the year, there will be public opportunities to review draft maps and documents.
