Official plan
An official plan sets out a municipality's general policies for future land use, and states the land use planning goals that guide development.
Zoning
Zoning by-laws establish and regulate land use by implementing the general policies from the Official Plan.
Minor variance
If a development proposal does not conform exactly to a Zoning By-law, but meets the general intent and purpose and complies with the Official Plan, an application may be made for a minor variance.
Consent (Severance)
All division of land in Ontario is subject to subdivision control, either through a plan of subdivision or consent approval to ensure that the new lots are consistent with the planning policies set out in the Official Plan and Zoning By-laws.
Site plan
Site plan control by-laws require certain types of buildings or developments to obtain “site plan approval” prior to construction.
Development charges
On April 11, 2023, Warwick Township Council enacted a new Development Charges (DCs) By-law. DCs are imposed to allow for the recovery of growth-related capital expenditures that occur as a result of providing municipal services to new residential and non-residential development.
