Master Plan

The Master Plan Steering Committee was created by the Planning Board on January 9, 2019. The committee was dissolved by the Planning Board on June 23, 2021.

The Master Plan Steering Committee advises on the development of the Master Plan document which reflects and supports the Community’s priorities and goals.

The Committee also fosters openness and inclusion in the master planning process through dialogue and communication with the consulting team of Horsley Witten and various stakeholders in the Sudbury Community.

The Master Plan Steering Committee is comprised of designated Sudbury Board and Committee members, and several at-large community members. The Committee is guided and led by the Planning Board, Horsley Witten, the Master Plan Consultants, and the Office of Planning and Community Development. Membership will be in existence for approximately 18 months to two years in order to direct the preparation of the Master Plan.
