Planning Act approval authority: municipalities
Find your planning approval authority.
Municipalities create official plans that set out general planning goals and policies to guide future land use. They also pass zoning by-laws, which set out the rules and regulations that control development as it occurs.
To make a change to land use or to create new lots within Ontario, an applicant (for example, a developer) must make a planning application and seek approval from the appropriate decision maker.
