The Tri-County Green Development Standards project is a joint effort among Grey, Dufferin, and Wellington Counties to create unified Green Development Standards that are informed by best practices, existing building credentials programs, and input from stakeholder consultation. The Counties will work closely with member municipalities.
The Tri-County Green Development Standards will establish a consistent framework across the Counties making it easier for the development industry to understand and implement in their projects. They will include measures for developers and builders to create thoughtful and innovative developments using sustainable design. The Standards are a critical policy tool for municipalities to achieve their greenhouse gas reduction targets, their Official Plan goals, and their goals for sustainability. The Standards will also help the industry with the net-zero building code transition expected in 2030.
Please join the Community Information Session for Dufferin County on March 26, 2024, 7pm-9pm at the Mel Lloyd Centre (New Horizons Room), 167 Centre Street, Shelburne ON. Entrance "F". Please let us know if you need special accommodation to attend the meeting.
The Session will begin with a brief presentation on Green Development Standards, with questions and answers to follow and an interactive workshop to ensure everyone can share their thoughts about what’s important with respect to green development standards in new developments.
