    The Town of Halton Hills is holding a Special Meeting of Council in accordance with Section 26 of the Planning Act, which directs Council to hold a Special Meeting of Council open to the public to generally discuss the revisions that may be required as part of the Official Plan Review.

    The Town of Halton Hills Official Plan is a long-term land use policy document that guides how the community will grow and change over time.

This Official Plan Review will update the Town’s planning framework to address consistency with the Provincial Planning Statement, 2024, Regional Official Plan, 2022 (now a Local Plan of Halton Hills as of July 1, 2024), and updated growth projections to the year 2051.
