Residents and stakeholders now have access to an interactive web mapping application to access and visualize the new Official Plan.
According to the City of Peterborough, the innovative tool was designed to enhance public engagement, transparency, and understanding of the strategic vision for growth and development.
The Official Plan Map Viewer, developed by the city’s Geomatics/Mapping Division, takes information about growth areas, infrastructure and natural heritage systems from the recently adopted Official Plan document and applies them to geographic information about the city.
The user can then filter information based on schedules, providing information about land use, road and trail networks and natural heritage systems, the city states.
Users can also search by address to see which schedules of the document apply to a given location.
