79% Informative

The City of Windsor has worked to streamline its development application process.

The city’s development review process has three stages: pre-consultation, technical review and formal application.

The developer must hold a public open house, share plans with surrounding residents, and gather feedback before moving to the second stage.

Staff identify conditions and requirements that form a final recommendation to council, which could include stormwater management and vehicle access points.

To become a municipal planner, a person must have dedicated education and obtain a registered professional planner designation.

Support studies required as part of the development review process must be prepared by qualified professionals.

Most of the proposals that make it to the development committee, and eventually city council, for consideration, are ones city planners have recommended.
