• FoNTRA promotes community involvement in planning so that local neighbourhoods are protected and a local-area Secondary Plan is re-instituted wherever an Official Plan change is proposed.
Note: A stable Official Plan, as outlined above, would permit (when appropriate) the approval of all Zoning By-law amendments by Community Councils.
