REMINDER: Public Meeting Set for Proposed County Official Plan Amendments
A public meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, Feb. 18 at 5 p.m. at the Lanark County Administration Building Council Chambers related to proposed Lanark County official plan amendments.
There are three topic-specific schedules of amendments, including affordable housing (OPA #16), growth management (OPA #17) and aggregate resources (OPA #18). The amendments implement findings and recommendations from various reports, including Lanark County & Town of Smiths Falls Municipal Tools to Support Affordable Housing (2022), Lanark County Growth Management Strategy (2025) and the Lanark County Aggregate Resources Master Plan (2025), which includes illustrative mapping of aggregate resources in the county.
Each amendment is informed by a background study, and the schedules are the basis for the required notice and consultation process for the related official plan amendments, which includes agencies, stakeholders and the public. The related reports, studies, maps, etc. can be found at www.lanarkcounty.ca/working/planning-development/open-applications/
Following the public meeting, a review and recommendation report will be presented in March to county council. Amendments to the county plan will impact local official plans but defer implementation details to local communities. The county is working with local planners in the process.
Notice of the public meeting and a link to the related open applications can be found at www.lanarkcounty.ca/government/public-consultation/. ... See MoreSee Less
