How the City of Waterloo changes over time is substantially guided by its Official Plan.

Council has now received the second draft of this plan, and anticipates considering it in the fall. But before then, it is back out for public consultation.

There is an Open House scheduled for Wednesday, July 20th in the City Hall Atrium at 100 Regina St. South from 1 – 3 p.m. and from 5 – 8 p.m. There will be another open house in the fall.

Documents are available at http://www.waterloo.ca/planitwaterloo

For the thousands of you who have already provided input over this multi-year process, please let us know how we’ve done either at the Open House or via email.

Contest for free Uptown Dollars

If you would like some extra money to spend in Uptown when you come back for the fall open house, the City is running a contest to boost its following on social media. You could earn $250 Uptown Dollars, redeemable at any Uptown business (except the LCBO), simply by following the City on Twitter, Facebook, or YouTube. For details, visit the contest website.
