Why are we doing this Study?

To review and update Town Official Plan aggregate policies, build upon the joint Region and Town Aggregate Policy Review and the Town’s Aggregate Rehabilitation Master Plan. The Study will look at background on aggregates in Caledon, review aggregate Official Plan policies, and make recommendations for improvements to those policies to ensure Caledon can reach its planning goals 

In October 2022, Council directed Town Staff to initiate the Supplementary Aggregate Policy Study, and enacted Interim Control By-law No. 2022-075 to control the establishment of new pits and quarries based on the findings of the Study. 

What stage of the Study are we at?

In May 2024, Council received a Supplementary Aggregate Policy Study Status Update Report and a Background Report as information items. The next step in the project is to consider policy options, and a Draft Policy Options Report with preliminary preferred directions has been released for public comment. This Report is posted on the project website.

Purpose of the Open House

This Open House is being held to solicit public feedback on the policy directions outlined in the Draft Policy Options Report, to ultimately inform the preparation of draft Official Plan and Zoning By-law Amendments to implement the study recommendations in September 2024.

All currently prepared Studies and Reports and Open House materials will be posted on the project website.
