Monday, Dec. 16, 2024 (Muskoka, ON) – The District of Muskoka is seeking public input to help update its Lake System Health policies. These policies guide waterfront development while protecting Muskoka’s natural environment.
As part of the Muskoka Official Plan (MOP) Comprehensive Review, the District is updating its policies to address challenges such as climate change, water quality and shoreline development. Public participation is essential to ensure these updates are informed by the experiences, concerns, and priorities of the community.
Shape the future of Muskoka by completing the Lake System Health survey. Feedback from the survey will inform policies that balance environmental, economic and community priorities.
In addition to the survey, the District will host a series of public consultation opportunities in the New Year. Stay tuned for more details.
