The Township of Lake of Bays has entered the next phase of reviewing and updating its Official Plan. As part of this important stage, a Draft Official Plan is currently being compiled and will soon be released for public review.

Participating in these township engagement events will give residents a chance to share their ideas and help shape the future of land use in Lake of Bays.

The proposed by-laws will come before the Township of Lake of Bays Council for consideration at its regular meeting to be held in a hybrid setting (in-person and electronically), on the 8th day of July, 2025, at the hour of 9:00 a.m. o’clock, in the morning.
