City Wide – Encouraging the Growing of Food in Urban Areas - The purpose and effect of the London Plan and zoning changes are to make it easier to grow food in the urban area (within the Urban Growth boundary) of the City by removing, adding or changing existing policies and regulations which currently prevent that from happening. Council adopted the Urban Agriculture Strategy in November 2017 which includes a number of actions involving Growing; Processing, Distribution; Food Recovery and Loss; and Education and Connection to make it easier for people to grow their own food and provide access to fresh food for other City residents. This project focuses on the “Growing” component of the Strategy. Implementation of the Strategy is urban agriculture community driven and is generally confined to lands within the Urban Growth boundary (UGB). The intent of the changes is to make it easier to grow food outdoors, inside buildings, on roofs, allow for more greenhouses in more areas and other initiatives to allow the growing of food. On July 6, 2021 Council directed that the draft amendments and background study be circulated for comments. File: OZ- 9332 Planner: C.Parker ext.4648
