The Municipality of Clarington has created a new secondary plan for the lands south of Highway 401 and north of the existing Wilmot Creek Adult Lifestyle Community.
This secondary plan creates an environmentally sustainable and healthy community with liveable neighbourhoods, integrated and connected green spaces, efficient transportation and trail systems, and a vibrant commercial area. The secondary plan area is intended to be a safe and inclusive pedestrian-oriented community that supports walkability and active living with accessible amenities. These secondary plan policies and sustainability guidelines do not apply to the existing Wilmot Creek community.
On April 24, 2023, Clarington’s Planning and Development Committee adopted the Wilmot Creek Neighbourhood Secondary Plan and the Official Plan Amendment 130 to include the Wilmot Creek Neighbourhood Secondary Plan in the Clarington Official Plan.
The Secondary Plan and Official Plan Amendment 130 now require approval from the Region of Durham, which may result in modifications to the Secondary Plan.
The adopted Secondary Plan, which the Region is reviewing, is provided below:
