City of Pickering Official Plan- Edition 6

In June 1996, Pickering Council adopted a vision statement
for the City (at that time, a Town). The statement is as
follows:
Council’s vision statement contains a number of important
directions and messages. This official plan supports the
Council vision statement and indeed further enhances it. The
Plan provides strategies and tools that will assist the City as it
moves forward into the next century to become an
increasingly vibrant and complete community, where residents
and business-people are encouraged to contribute to the City
in meaningful and productive ways.
On January 1, 2000, Pickering was granted City status.
