In 2022, the Counties initiated the Agricultural Area Review. The purpose of the review is to identify and confirm agricultural lands in the Counties. The final map of the agricultural area lands will be used to update the Counties Official Plan schedule so that those lands are protected. The requirement to complete this study was identified by the Province in the Counties Official Plan. The project is nearing the final mapping stage.

Prior to the formal public meeting, the following local area consultations are being held to review the recommended agricultural area system (mapping) proposed for the Counties Official Plan. These meetings are primarily for those persons whose properties have been impacted and who have not already discussed their property with staff and the consulting team.
