Status: In Progress

Purpose

Oxford County has initiated the development of a Water and Wastewater Master Plan (W/WW MP) to provide the County with strategic long-term water and wastewater servicing strategies to support existing servicing needs and accommodate further projected population and employment growth to the year 2046.

 

Scope

The W/WW MP is a long-term strategic planning document that lays out the County’s vision and goals for its water and wastewater systems to 2046. The W/WW MP is being conducted in accordance with the Master Plan requirements of Phases 1 and 2 of the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (2000, as amended in 2007, 2011 & 2015), approved under the Ontario Environmental Assessment Act.

 

We want to hear from you

As the Project Team reviews and updates the W/WW MP, it is important to engage with the public to identify the community’s servicing needs and priorities. Members of the public are invited and encouraged to comment on the project at any time during the Study.
