Employment Area Policy Review

The Town of Midland is undertaking an EMPLOYMENT AREA POLICY REVIEW STUDY to complete the comprehensive review component of the Town’s Official Plan Review in respect of the policy requirements of Section 2.2.6.5 of the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe and to achieve the following objectives:

 

  •  To identify the Town’s strategic Employment Areas which would be subject to the requirements for a Municipal comprehensive review under Section 2.2.6.5 of the Growth Plan prior to the consideration of conversion applications.
  • To identify those Employment Areas which would not meet the Growth Plan definition and that may be candidates for conversion and which would not be subject to a requirement for a Municipal comprehensive review prior to the consideration of a conversion application.
  • To develop policies for a Municipal comprehensive review, the protection of Employment Areas, and other relevant employment area planning issues to update the Town’s Official Plan in accordance with the policies of 2.2.6.5 of the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe.
  • To identify Employment Area Policy issues that should be addressed in the balance of the Town’s OFFICIAL PLAN REVIEW AND UPDATE PROJECT.

 

The EMPLOYMENT AREA POLICY REVIEW STUDY impacts all lands in the Town that are designated EMPLOYMENT AREA in the Official Plan and Zoned Industrial - M1 and M2 in Zoning By-law 2004-90, as amended.
