Oxford County is beginning a multi-year process to create a new Official Plan that will guide future growth, land use, and infrastructure. A draft is expected by 2028, with final approval targeted for 2029 after public consultation.

Oxford County Council will receive a work plan to develop a new Official Plan, marking the start of a multi-year process that will guide growth and development across the region.

The plan is expected to shape where and how growth occurs in Oxford County, with a focus on building complete communities, protecting farmland, supporting environmental stewardship and ensuring efficient use of infrastructure and public services.

Officials say the process will include extensive public consultation and background studies beginning in the coming months.

A draft Official Plan is anticipated in early 2028, followed by additional consultation. A final version is expected to be submitted to the provincial government for approval in 2029.
