An on line questionnaire to gather these opinions which can be found at:

The MVCA applauds City Planning staff for its efforts and encourages rural residents to complete this on line questionnaire, adding their opinions and concerns to the Official Plan Process.
However, there are a number of poor worded questions that could result in confusion and misinterpretation by persons completing the questionnaire.
In order to avoid this, the MVCA has prepared Companion Advisory Notes for you to consider as you complete the survey.
