Community Development

Division Overview

Providing leadership for the development of a sustainable community, Community Development is focused on creating sustainable neighbourhoods that meet the needs of residents and businesses, now and in the future. This division helps manage growth while respecting the environment and protecting our heritage.

Five departments provide professional services and advice to the public, developers, consultants, staff and Council. Community Development plans communities, supports businesses and coordinates building permit applications. This division also establishes Development Cost Charges, encourages the use of green features, and ensures new development and infrastructure complies with bylaws, codes and standards.
