Official Plans,Zoning Bylaws and Rezoning

Prince Edward Island has twenty-eight municipalities with Official Plans and Zoning Bylaws. The Planning Act guides the development of these documents.

Official Plans

An Official Plan sets out a municipality's general policies for future land use. Local government develops the Plan through consultation with the citizens of the community who help to ensure that future development will meet its needs. The Plan deals with issues such as location of new housing, industry and commercial offices as well as identifying essential services such as roads, sewers, parks and schools. These policies are implemented in a Zoning/Land Use Bylaw that provides for the day-to-day administration.

These are the municipalities which have provided us with official plans. This list is not exhaustive. Please consult your municipality for a legal copy of their official plan.
