Towns of Pictou, Stellarton, and Trenton: Inter-Municipal Planning Strategy Secondary Planning Strategies Common Land Use By-Law
The Councils of Pictou (town), Stellarton, and Trenton have begun the process of reviewing their Planning Documents, specifically the existing Inter-Municipal Planning Strategy, Secondary Planning Strategies, and Common Land Use By-law.
The three towns have decided to maintain a "sub-regional" land use and development plan to guide future growth in these three municipal units in Pictou County. The towns have agreed to undertake a review of their "Inter-municipal Planning Strategy" (IMPS) to continue to bring a cohesive and "sub-regional" vision to the area's planning process.

Section 204 of the Municipal Government Act requires the Town Councils to adopt a public participation program concerning the preparation of planning documents. The Towns are also required to engage with neighbouring municipalities in this process.
