Email icon Back to Search

FILE NUMBER:          RZ 2025-0019

Applicant:                  The Corporation of the Town of Caledon 

Location:                   Bolton settlement area, southeast Caledon (Ward 5)  

The Town of Caledon is holding an Open House as well as a Statutory public meeting to provide information and receive feedback on the proposed Community Planning Permit System.

Proposed Changes

The Town of Caledon is introducing a Community Planning Permit System (CPPS) for the potential Bolton South GO Major Transit Station Area (MTSA). The potential Bolton South GO MTSA is envisioned as a mixed-use, high-density, multimodal community in the draft Bolton Secondary Plan being concurrently led by the Town. A map showing the proposed CPPS area is included below.

The CPPS is being advanced through the Town’s Housing Accelerator Fund initiative and will support the implementing policies of the draft Bolton Secondary Plan by streamlining the process of development applications within the area. As a land use planning tool, the CPPS combines three development application processes: Zoning By-law amendments, Minor Variances, and Site Plans, into a single permit application and review process.

A draft Community Planning Permit (CPP) By-law has been prepared to implement the CPPS, which can be viewed online at https://haveyoursaycaledon.ca/bolton-secondary-plan-review.

Once in effect, the CPP By-law will replace the Town’s Zoning By-law as it applies to the area.
