VMC Secondary Plan Update

The Vaughan Metropolitan Centre (VMC), bounded by Highway 407 to the south, Highway 400 to the west, Portage Parkway to the north and Creditstone and Maplecrete roads to the east, is evolving. As Vaughan's emerging downtown core, the area is poised to be the city's financial, innovation and cultural hub, with a vibrant sense of places linked by a network of parks, public squares and open spaces.

What is the VMC Secondary Plan?

The current VMC Secondary Plan (PDF), approved in 2010, provides a strong vision and policy foundation for the area and has helped guide its development. However, the VMC has seen rapid growth since then, which is why the plan needs updating.

 

Get involved

Public consultation has been a vital part of updating the VMC Secondary Plan and has evolved over several phases. The project is currently in Phase IV, which involves the development of a new draft Secondary Plan. An opportunity for the public to review the draft Secondary Plan and provide feedback will be scheduled in early 2025. More details will be added to this webpage once scheduled.
