ReThink Zoning

ReThink Zoning is the process of preparing a new Comprehensive Zoning By-law for the City of London. Zoning is an important land use tool that has the potential to shape how our communities evolve by regulating how land can be used or developed.

The new zoning by-law will implement the policies and direction of the City's Official Plan - The London Plan - which was approved by City Council in 2016. The London Plan provides a vision for how London will change over the next twenty years. It was developed through the ReThink London engagement process which was a community conversation about the type of city Londoners want. ReThink Zoning continues that conversation and shifts the question from "what kind of city we want London to become?", to "how we will get there?".
