City's New Municpal Plan Up For Approval

Common Council will be asked tonight to give approval in principle to the new municipal plan that will guide development in the city for the next 25 years. 

Jacqueline Hamilton of Plan SJ calls it a bold and innovative plan saying the goal is to create what she calls complete neighbourhoods with more affordable housing choices and more people living in the city.

Growth will be encouraged in the urban and suburban neighbourhoods.

Hamilton says the message delivered to Plan SJ by Saint Johnners is the desire to protect the rural landscape inside the city.
