The Township of King is initiated its Official Plan Review (OPR) in September 2023. The Official Plan Review will develop a roadmap to guide growth in King to the year 2051. The Township is reviewing the Our King Official Plan to align with recent changes in Provincial policy and legislation, integrate relevant policies from the York Region Official Plan (2022), and ensure the vision for King continues to meet the Township's evolving needs. A number of supporting projects/studies, including an Employment Lands Strategy and Growth Management Strategy are be undertaken to inform the OPR.
