Planning Advisory Committee

Planning for the best use of Wolfville’s physical spaces is directly linked to the enjoyment of our Town.

• Land Use Planning

• Heritage Planning and Preservation

• Environmental Issues

• Building Standards

• Housing Issues

• Parks, Trails, Playgrounds and Open Space Planning

• Landscaping and Beautification of Municipal Property; and

• Any other related matter referred to this Committee by Council or by the Chief Administrative Officer

The committee provides recommendations on planning and heritage issues and considers the Municipal Planning Strategy in all recommendations and advice provided to Council.

The Planning Advisory Committee works in accordance with the Municipal Government Act and the Heritage Property Act.

 

The Planning Advisory Committee meets monthly (except August) on Thursday evenings from 6:30pm-8:30pm. Members are required to review background agendas and other required reading in advance of meetings.
