New - Plan the Bruce Official Plan Review
| Change is coming to Bruce County! |
|
How do we create a Bruce County for everyone, while preserving what we value most? We need to think ahead. We need to plan for it. Getting ahead of social, built and environmental change takes professional planning and public participation. We call it Plan The Bruce. Plan the Bruce is a land use planning project that will inform the new Official Plan — the roadmap for growth and development for the next 25 years. Meaningful public engagement is an important part of our journey.

Development Charges
In 2016, the Town implemented Development Charges. Development Charges apply to the areas known as South Wiarton and Outside of South Wiarton - both areas are in and immediately around the community of Wiarton. Development Charges are due upon the issuance of a building permit - some exceptions apply.
