Planning and Development

If you are planning a new construction or development project, or renovating your home or property, you should consult early with our Planning Office to determine if you will require any approvals under the Planning Act. 

Early consultation will help to avoid delays and identify any supporting documentation that may be required to support your proposal.  Consultation is mandatory for most planning applications, and a form to request consultation can be found on our Planning Applications page.

The Planning Office provides advice to Council and customer service to residents, developers, builders and others on the land use planning aspects of development and construction projects in Central Elgin.
