What is an Official Plan?
An Official Plan is a statutory document that has status in law pursuant to provisions of the Planning Act. It provides for a long-term comprehensive framework for land use decision-making in our community. The Official Plan is a statement of goals, objectives and policies intended to guide existing and future land use, physical development, and growth within the municipal boundaries of the County. The policies of the Plan are designed to provide the essential tools to enhance future growth, development and change in the County and to create the community envisioned by Norfolk’s residents.
