The Ontario Plan
Welcome to The Ontario Plan
The Ontario Plan is a dynamic Framework for sustained, comprehensive leadership in building our community. It integrates components of city governance that are typically disconnected. The Plan states community direction at a point in time (2020) and integrates it into a single guidance system that will shape the Ontario community 20 years or more into the future (2050). The Ontario Plan provides for lasting policies to accommodate change.
It consists of a six part Component Framework:
- Vision
- Governance Manual
- Policy Plan (General Plan)
- City Council Priorities
- Implementation
- Tracking and Feedback
