Stewarttown Secondary Plan
| November 2025 Update: Council's approval of Official Plan Amendment 57 (Stewarttown Secondary Plan) has been appealed to the Ontario Land Tribunal. Read more. |
The Town is preparing a Secondary Plan for the (former) Hamlet of Stewarttown to establish a Land Use Plan for the area and surrounding expansion lands while focusing on preserving the unique character of the community. Building on information presented at the second virtual Open House held in April 2022, the Project Team will provide findings from the recently completed Feasibility Analysis and follow up on the draft Preferred Land Use concept. Feedback gathered at the event will help inform the direction of the draft Stewarttown Secondary Plan.
Once completed, the Stewarttown Secondary Plan will identify the most appropriate land use plan for the area and incorporate best practices for community development while establishing housing density targets for the new community.
The Stewarttown Secondary Plan will align with Provincial and Regional plans and its development will be a community-integrated process, shaped by input from the public and key stakeholders.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Phase 1
- What is meant by "appropriate" density and mix?
- Will trees be put in to provide privacy to the current residents that have nature views right now, but will be facing houses in these new plans?
- Why is Harrison Place the only access point outlined? There are multiple concerns with this as the entry point for the new development, including traffic, safety, and home values. Why are other access points not being considered?
- The emergency access/trail access on the maps is a private road that is paid for and maintained by the 5 resident houses on the cul-de-sac. Has this been approved?
- Would you be able to give us an idea about the number of households in the expansion lands based on your options?
-
Phase 2
- The draft land use plan presented shows the only access to the expansion lands through Harrison Place. Are other potential access points being considered?
- How has the increased traffic flow, that will result from the development of the expansion lands, been considered as part of the Secondary Plan process?
- Why is the land use for the expansion lands changing from agricultural to residential?
- Will affordable housing be considered as part of the draft policies for the Secondary Plan?
- Why are a mix of land uses not being considered for the expansion lands?
-
Phase 3
- Why is the format for this event different from that of the past Public Open Houses for this project?
- Why was the Hillsview Active Living Centre in Georgetown chosen as the venue for the Public Open House?
- Does the Secondary Plan have to specify a density range for the expansion lands, like the 5-8 units per hectare shown in the presentation?
- Are the boundaries for the Policy Areas presented on June 7 final, or can they be adjusted?
- What is the Stewarttown Feasibility Study and where can I learn more about it?
- What are the next steps for this project?
