Plan of subdivision and plan of condominium applications

Check which application you need

• Through this process, new public streets, public parks and municipal services may also be provided to support the new development blocks.
• If you are not sure whether your development proposal requires a Draft Plan of Subdivision, contact the district Planning Consultant (listed under Contact Information).
• This authority is used to regulate division of land and/or buildings into parcels or units that may be sold as part of a condominium corporation.
• You will need to determine which type of condominium corporation you wish to establish before filing your application.
