Dufferin County is updating its Official Plan

Dufferin County is home to 66,000 people now and is expected to grow to 95,000 by 2051, according to the Province of Ontario’s Growth Plan.

To address this predicted growth in population, Dufferin County is working on the Municipal Comprehensive Review (MCR) – a series of studies that will influence Dufferin’s Official Plan and shape the growth of Dufferin County for the next 30 years.

At their May 12, 2022 meeting, Dufferin County Council gave a green light to take a phased approach to the MCR.





We want to hear from you!

The MCR is going to shape the future of Dufferin County’s community, so it’s important that the project includes community voices.
