What is the City of Windsors Official Plan?
The City of Windsor Official Plan is a principal policy document adopted by Council under the provisions of the Ontario Planning Act. It reflects matters of municipal and provincial interests and applies to the entire city. Using the Plan as a guide, Council adopts more detailed planning policies such as secondary plans and community improvement plans for specific areas and neighbourhoods and directs the development of new subdivisions. The use and development of individual parcels of land is also influenced by the Official Plan which determines more specific regulatory measures related to land subdivision, zoning and site plan control.
