Book Description
The Commission on Planning and Development Reform in Ontario was appointed by the Ontario Government in June 1991 to recommend changes to the Planning Act and related policy that would restore confidence in the integrity of the planning process, protect the public interest, better define roles and relationships, focus more closely on protecting the natural environment, and make the planning process more timely and efficient. The report describes the purpose of planning and the current policy process in Ontario; the provincial role in policy and planning; planning and aboriginal communities; municipal plan-making; lot creation and development control; public involvement; conflict, disputes, and appeals; sewage treatment and septics; streamlining; and implementation.
