The Planning Services department will be presenting a recommendation report with respect to the proposed Official Plan Amendment at this meeting. The purpose of the proposed Official Plan Amendment is to move the lands excluded from Official Plan Amendment 34 by deferral of Council from the 1984 Oakville Official Plan to the Livable Oakville Plan, and incorporate policies for those lands.

The effect of the proposed amendment to the 1984 Oakville Official Plan is to repeal the plan and policies as they apply to the portion of the North Oakville West Secondary Plan area excluded from Official Plan Amendment 34 by deferral of Council.

The effect of the proposed amendment to the Livable Oakville Plan is to update schedules to include the lands excluded from Official Plan Amendment 34 by deferral of Council as part of the Livable Oakville Plan area, based on previously applicable policies and schedules of the North Oakville West Secondary Plan. As a result, the policies for the “North West Area”, previously adopted under Official Plan Amendment 34, would apply to the subject lands. The subject lands are located west of Bronte Road, and south of Highway 407. The subject lands pertain to the lands that were previously excluded from Official Plan Amendment 34 by deferral of Council on March 22, 2021.

At this time there are no other applications, under the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. P.13, as amended, pertaining to the subject lands.
