Get Involved
Planning is a public process. Because planning decisions shape the places where we live, work, and play, it is vitally important that community members have the opportunity to express their views and values.
The City welcomes and encourages comments from individuals and from organizations regarding planning initiatives and specific
development applications. There are several ways for you can participate in the planning and development process:
|
buildingbarrie.ca | Visit
buildingbarrie.ca to find public engagement and information sessions that might interest you.
Feedback on Draft Two of the Official Plan was open May 6 to June 2, 2021. Consultation on Draft Two is now closed. Visit buildingbarrie.ca/OfficialPlan for details on Draft Two of the Official Plan.
