Earlier:
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.
