There are a number of initiatives in process which will have a significant impact on how King Township evolves over the next decade and beyond; specifically the King Township Official Plan Review and the Provincial Review of the 4 Plans (i.e. 3 conservation plans and the growth plan). I know that many residents and business owners are involved which is great. If you have been thinking about getting involved now is the time as there are several important meetings/dates coming up.
The review and updating of the Official Plan for King Township is well underway. Deadline for comments and feedback for the Phase 1 Background and Information Paper is April 30th. This paper will guide the next phase which is when policies will developed for consideration. For more information about the official plan review click here. And here is the information paper.
The review of the 4 plans is also well underway. Several public meetings have been held already; the next one in close proximity to King is Tuesday, May 12th in Vaughan (Chateau Le Jardin Conference & Event Centre 8440 Hwy 27, Woodbridge.) The open house portion is 6-7 with the meeting being 7-9. To understand better the purpose of the review and the process I would like to refer you an earlier post I made on the subject. I believe that it is extremely important the Province hears from many, many people that urban sprawl must stop, that protection of our agricultural lands and the sources of our water is a priority.
King Township will be making a submission regarding the 4 plans to the Province. To provide input you can attend one of two public meetings on April 23rd or you can submit your input via email. Both meeting are in Council Chambers; one is 2-4 pm and the other is 7-9pm. For more detail see here.
