The West Vaughan Employment Area Secondary Plan (track changes version) - As adopted by Council on September 7, 2010, subject to Council modification on January 27, 2013.

While the southern part of this employment area has developed (the Vaughan Enterprise Zone), the lands north of Langstaff - the West Vaughan Employment Area (WVEA) - have not proceeded due to uncertainty around the proposed Highway 427 extension. As the preferred alignment for the Highway 427 extension has been identified through the Environmental Assessment process, further planning and development of these lands has been completed and adopted by Council on September 7 2010.
