About Concord GO
Background
The City of Vaughan adopted the in-force Concord GO Centre Secondary Plan in June 2014 and was approved by Regional Council in May 2015 to support the potential GO Station. This plan established the policies that provide options for housing, employment, transit, retail, and public space in Concord that would support development around a potential Concord GO Station.
Generally, the Concord GO Centre Secondary Plan allows for a mix of land uses near transit infrastructure. The Land Use Designations are as follows:
- General Employment
- Prestige Employment
- High-Rise Mixed-Use
- Employment Commercial Mixed-Use
- Low-Rise Mixed-Use
- Open Spaces
- Natural Areas
On May 29, 2015, York Region Council identified two deferral areas in the Concord GO Centre Secondary Plan. Land uses in these areas were deferred pending the completion of the Secondary Plan update.
