Development Services Department, located in the City Hall, is responsible for the review,
processing and approval of all municipal planning applications (ie. Official
Plan Amendments, Plan of Subdivisions, Zoning By-law Amendments, Consents, Minor
Variances, Site Plan Control, etc.). The City is approximately 504 square
kilometres in size and the four wards have been divided into three planning
areas - Trenton, Sidney and Murray-Frankford. The Planners who handle all
inquiries and applications for each area are listed below. Any questions
regarding the consent or minor variance processes should be directed to Mrs.

The City's new Official Plan was approved by the Province on
October 29, 2001. Copies of this document are available on CD or paper form for
$60.00 + GST. The City is currently preparing Phase 2 of the Quinte West Official Plan
Program which will guide the development of the City's urban centres.
The Building Department is located in the second floor of the
City Hall with Mr. Ron Wardhaugh as Chief Building Official (CBO). The
same planning areas are used by the CBO to divide the responsibilities related
