These policies generally reflect unique historic conditions for approval that must be recognized for specific development sites, or provide a further layer of local policy direction for an area. In most cases, the area and site specific policies provide direction on land use. The Plan policies apply to these lands except where the area and site specific policies vary from the Plan. The area and site specific policies contained in this Chapter are generally categorized into districts containing policies that may apply to a specific area or group of properties or a specific site. These districts are shown on Map 14 – Area and Site Specific Policies. The area and site specific policies include interim policy provisions for the secondary plan areas shown in Appendix F – Secondary Plan Areas where the provisions of the Official Plan (Revised 1987) and relevant secondary plans shall continue to apply until an update of the existing secondary plan or a new secondary plan is completed and approved to be consistent with the provisions of this Plan. Once completed these secondary plans will form Part II of this Official Plan. Some of the area specific policies contain provisions for study or phasing requirements to be completed prior to development approvals on the lands such as local area studies and traffic impact assessments.
