The planning services Property Information Request service is currently unavailable.
On Nov. 30, 2020, the Region of Halton issued a Notice of Decision approving the new Burlington Official Plan. A number of appeals to various parts of the new Official Plan were received during the appeal period. The Local Planning Appeal Tribunal (LPAT) will issue Orders throughout the appeal process to establish and confirm which portions of the new Official Plan remain subject to appeal, and which portions are in effect. As a result, the planning services Property Information Request service is currently suspended. We apologize for this inconvenience and will resume this service at a later date. For more information regarding the LPAT process, the Burlington Official Plan, 2020 and the Burlington Official Plan, 1997 please visit https://www.burlington.ca/en/services-for-you/Official-Plan-Review.asp
