The City of Dryden's Official Plan describes our policies on how we use land in our community. It's prepared with input from you and your fellow citizens and helps to ensure that future planning and development will meet the specific needs of our community, while protecting Dryden's natural spaces and heritage.
The approved Official Plan outlines a comprehensive framework of new and revised policies addressing matters such as housing, economic development, environmental protection, climate change, protection of water resources and natural heritage, orderly development of lands and guides development, such as:
- Where new housing, industry, offices and shops will go;
- What services will be needed (ex. roads, water mains, sewers, parks and schools); and
- When, and in what order, parts of your community will grow
