What is a Municipal Development Plan?

    A Municipal Development Plan is the municipality’s highest-level planning document. It establishes a roadmap for:

    • Where and how communities grow
    • Future residential, commercial, and industrial development
    • Transportation networks and infrastructure investment
    • Environmental protection and land stewardship
    • Economic development and job creation
    • Coordination between different areas of the municipality

    The MDP guides future bylaws, policies, and decision-making—helping ensure that development happens in a way that benefits residents, businesses, and the region as a whole.
