Vaughan Official Plan
The City of Vaughan is in the process of developing a new Vaughan Official Plan 2025.
The development of the draft new Vaughan Official Plan 2025 was guided by responsible governance, sustainable planning, economic leadership, transparency, accountability and inclusivity. The draft new Vaughan Official Plan 2025 is consistent with new Provincial policies, plan and growth targets for people and jobs. Once approved, the new Vaughan Official Plan 2025 will implement the long-term vision for Vaughan, to the year 2051, through land use policies that direct density, housing supply, protection of environmental features and agricultural areas, to create a vibrant city for people to live, work and play.
The draft new Vaughan Official Plan 2025 consists of two volumes. Volume 1 contains policies that apply city-wide, and Volume 2 contains Secondary Plans, Area- and Site-Specific policies. The draft new Vaughan Metropolitan Centre Secondary Plan and draft new Weston 7 Secondary Plan form part of Volume 2 of the draft new Vaughan Official Plan 2025.
The process
The City of Vaughan has been working towards creating the new Vaughan Official Plan 2025 to better meet the needs of current and future residents, businesses and those who visit Vaughan. The new Vaughan Metropolitan Centre Secondary Plan and new Weston 7 Secondary Plan will form part of Volume 2 of the new Vaughan Official Plan 2025. Work on the new Vaughan Official Plan 2025, including the Vaughan Metropolitan Centre and Weston 7 Secondary Plans, is expected to be completed in Fall 2025.
