Town of Oakville Official Plan

The Oakville Official Plan was first adopted by the Council of the Corporation of the Town of Oakville on July 5, 1983 by By-law 1983-114 and was subsequently approved by the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing. The Town is transitioning towards a new policy framework - Livable Oakville - which when adopted, will become the new Official Plan for Oakville. Learn more about Livable Oakville.

The current Official Plan has been amended many times to reflect new development or land-use changes.  The consolidated version of the Official Plan incorporates all amendments and modifications approved by the Minister up to September 30, 2006. Any amendments which are under appeal are not included at this time.

Official Plan text and maps are available for viewing below or paper copies of the Official Plan may be purchased from the Planning Services Department, Town Hall, 1225 Trafalgar Road, 2nd floor for a fee of $100. A CD version is available for $50.
