The District of Muskoka is excited to announce the launch of Muskoka PlanHub, an online portal enhancing the planning application experience in our communities. With funding support from Ontario’s Rural Economic Development (RED) program, Muskoka PlanHub is set to redefine how District planning applications are submitted and tracked.
MuskokaPlanHub is designed to support all District-level planning applications and their processes, including Pre-Consultation, Draft Plan of Subdivision and Condominium, Amendments and Extensions to Draft Approved Plans and Official Plan Amendments.
Starting May 1, 2024, all planning applications and commenting requests with the District will be accepted exclusively through Muskoka PlanHub.
Convenience and Collaboration
Empowering users anytime, anywhere, Muskoka PlanHub is a digital platform that enables real-time collaboration with everyone involved in the process. This initiative stems from a review of the District’s development approvals process, recognizing the need to streamline the application tracking system.
The support and funding from the Ontario’s Ministry of Agriculture, Food, and Rural Affairs (OMAFRA) RED program has made Muskoka PlanHub a reality.
“Muskoka PlanHub is all about making it easier and faster to do business with the District. With housing such an urgent need in Muskoka, it’s part of our effort to modernize our planning processes and offer better service to our residents and businesses. With the support of District Council, and the critical funding from OMAFRA’s RED program, our staff have done amazing work here to create a truly leading-edge tool.” Jeff Lehman, District Chair
“The planning application process for the District of Muskoka is becoming more user-friendly with the launch of Muskoka PlanHub. We are putting technology to work to provide better customer service to individuals and businesses as they navigate the planning and development process in our District.” Nancy Alcock, Chair of the Community and Planning Services Committee
