CK GMS Online Survey – Phase 2

Chatham-Kent’s population and employment forecasts show that some Primary Urban Centres will need additional greenfield land over the next 25 years to accommodate new homes and businesses. A Settlement Area Boundary Expansion adjusts the urban boundary to provide enough room to grow while still planning for intensification and protecting agricultural land.

Please share your feedback on the preliminary preferred growth options for Chatham, Tilbury, and Wallaceburg.
