Glen Williams Secondary Plan Review
The Town of Halton Hills is reviewing and updating the Hamlet of Glen Williams Secondary Plan to reflect changes to provincial and regional policy documents. As part of this review, the current Design and Heritage Protection Guidelines for the Hamlet will be updated to incorporate best practices which are sensitive to the community context.
The review will be a community-integrated process that is shaped by input from the public and key stakeholders.
The updated Secondary Plan will:
- Articulate the vision for the Hamlet of Glen Williams;
- Define intended policy direction for residential, commercial, institutional, recreational and natural areas within the Hamlet;
- Ensure that the natural, cultural and heritage character of the Hamlet is retained and enhanced.
Please see Background Information to view the current Secondary Plan and other documents. The Final Draft Secondary Plan are available for review.

FAQs
-
Final Draft Q&As
- What does the Town have in mind regarding new residential housing?
- Congratulations on strong policies around urban design and built form – will this be an approach considered by the Town in other areas?
- What is the timing for approval of the updated Secondary Plan? How will the updated Secondary Plan be applied to pending applications? What is the planning rationale for a hamlet buffer abutting a Provincial Greenbelt Plan?
- Noting the difference in timing between the Secondary Plan and current traffic issues, traffic is an issue that needs to be addressed in another forum.
- How will the trail systems be connected to existing trails and sidewalks to ensure SAFE active transportation throughout the Glen?
-
Draft Secondary Plan Q&As
- Are there any considerations for expanding the Hamlet boundaries?
- Where can we get more information about this project?
- When are sidewalks scheduled for confederation street north of Wildwood?
- Additional policies are added for intensification. What does this entail? Is the density to remain at 5 units per ha? Is it to increase and if so by how much? Why was this changed?
- Does the 20m buffer next to greenbelt land still exist? In talking to several area residents this is not something anyone wants to see change.
