About the new Official Plan

The Township of Wilmot is preparing a new Official Plan that will build on its long-term vision for growth, with a renewed focus on complete communities. 

The plan will include a range and mix of housing, employment opportunities, schools, recreational amenities, and options for servicing, roads and active transportation, while protecting natural heritage features and farmland.

Public Workshop

Residents are invited to attend a second public workshop on October 22, 2025, at the Wilmot Recreation Complex (second floor Community Centre).

• Employment Projections and Employment Land Needs Analysis
• Transportation
• Water, Wastewater Servicing Strategy
• Stormwater Servicing Strategy
• Urban Design

The presentation will be followed by topic-focused discussion tables where members of the Official Plan development team will lead discussions on seven topics of conversation.
