Outline Plans and Area Concept Plans
Outline Plans and Area Concept Plans are non-statutory plans that are used as a guideline for the subsequent redesignation, subdivision and development of an area of land.
These plans are conceptual schemes that provides a much greater level of detail than an Area Structure Plan or Development Concept Plan in terms of the actual subdivision design, site specific technical analysis and details how the proposal is in keeping with the overall municipal goals for development.
Outline plans are a new plan type for the MD the framework for which was laid out in the MDP2010 and as such there have not yet been any Outline Plans approved in the MD.
