Aggregate Master Plan RSS

The County of Grey is one of the largest Counties in the Province of Ontario with many diverse natural resources. The County is blessed with many economic factors including agriculture, tourism and industry. The aggregate industry within Grey County has been, for many years, very strong, primarily due to the abundance of significant aggregate resources.

The County, in the development of its Official Plan, identified aggregate as an area that required further study. The Official Plan states: The County shall develop Terms of Reference in consultation with the concerned municipalities and representatives of the aggregate industry within six months from the date of final approval of this Plan by the Ontario Municipal Board with a view to completing the master plan in three years from the date of final approval of this plan by the Ontario Municipal Board. The Official Plan recommends the master plan be implemented by way of an Official Plan Amendment either by way of an amendment to the County Official Plan or a local Official Plan.

The Master Plan must work towards protecting and managing this Provincially Significant resource to ensure that the public interest of the people of Ontario is being met.

The Plan was accepted by the Planning and Community Development Committee at the October 16,2004 meeting. The County's next step will be the preparation of a County Official Plan Amendment to address the findings of the report.
