Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan
(1) The Minister may, by regulation, establish the Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan for all or part of the Oak Ridges Moraine Area.
The Minister shall ensure that a copy of the Plan and of every amendment to it is filed,
in the offices of the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing; and
with the clerk of each municipality that has jurisdiction in the Oak Ridges Moraine Area.
The Minister shall ensure that a review of the Plan is carried out at the same time the review of the Greenbelt Plan is carried out under the Greenbelt Act, 2005 to determine whether the Plan should be revised.

ensure that the public is given an opportunity to participate in the review.
For greater certainty, the Plan is not an undertaking as defined in subsection 1 (1) of the Environmental Assessment Act, but that Act continues to apply within the area to which the Plan applies.
The objectives of the Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan are,
protecting the ecological and hydrological integrity of the Oak Ridges Moraine Area;
ensuring that only land and resource uses that maintain, improve or restore the ecological and hydrological functions of the Oak Ridges Moraine Area are permitted;
maintaining, improving or restoring all the elements that contribute to the ecological and hydrological functions of the Oak Ridges Moraine Area, including the quality and quantity of its water and its other resources;

providing for continued development within existing urban settlement areas and recognizing existing rural settlements;
providing for a continuous recreational trail through the Oak Ridges Moraine Area that is accessible to all including persons with disabilities;
providing for other public recreational access to the Oak Ridges Moraine Area; and
any other prescribed objectives.
The Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan may,
set out land use designations for land to which the Plan applies;
with respect to the areas affected by those land use designations,
prohibit any use of land or the erection, location and use of buildings or structures for or except for such purposes as may be set out in the Plan,
restrict or regulate the use of land or the erection, location and use of buildings or structures, and
set out policies relating to land and resource protection and land development;
prohibit official plans and zoning by-laws from containing provisions with respect to specified matters that are more restrictive than those in the Plan; and
specify matters for the purpose of clause (c).
(1) For the purposes of achieving the objectives of the Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan, the Minister or a municipality with jurisdiction in the Oak Ridges Moraine Area may enter into an agreement with any other person or public body, including but not limited to an agreement that provides for sharing the costs of implementing any feature of the Plan.
Subsection (1) is subject to the Planning Act and the Development Charges Act, 1997.
(1) A decision that is made under the Planning Act or the Condominium Act, 1998 or in relation to a prescribed matter, by a municipal council, local board, municipal planning authority, minister of the Crown or ministry, board, commission or agency of the Government of Ontario, including the Ontario Land Tribunal, shall conform with the Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan. ;
Despite any other Act, no municipality or municipal planning authority shall, within the area to which the Plan applies,
undertake any public work, improvement of a structural nature or other undertaking that conflicts with the Plan; or
pass a by-law for any purpose that conflicts with the Plan.
(1) Despite any other Act, the Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan prevails in the case of conflict between the Plan and,
an official plan;
a zoning by-law; or
a policy statement issued under section 3 of the Planning Act.
Subject to clauses 5 (c) and (d), an official plan or zoning by-law does not conflict with the Plan to the extent that its provisions are more restrictive than those in the Plan.

On or before the day that is 18 months after the filing date described in subsection (1), every single-tier municipality and lower-tier municipality shall prepare and pass a zoning by-law amendment to bring its zoning by-laws into conformity with the Plan, but the amendment does not come into force unless it is approved by the Minister under section 10.
If, in the Minister’s opinion, an official plan or a zoning by-law conflicts with the Plan, the Minister may,
advise the municipality or the municipal planning authority that adopted the official plan or that passed the zoning by-law of the particulars of the conflict; and
invite the municipality or the municipal planning authority to submit, within a specified time, proposals for the resolution of the conflict.
The Minister may, by order, amend the official plan or the zoning by-law, as the case may be, to resolve the conflict,
if the council or municipal planning authority fails to submit proposals to resolve the conflict within the specified time; or
if proposals are submitted but, after consultation with the Minister, the conflict cannot be resolved, and the Minister so notifies the council or municipal planning authority in writing.
