What is a Master Plan?

Conservation Halton is undertaking Master Planning not only to guide ecological restoration efforts, but to further our commitment to sharing our Conservation Areas with Halton residents and visitors, both now and in the future.

In this day and age, when our cities and towns are being developed at a rapid pace, it isn't often that a public agency finds itself in the envious position of being able to protect, enhance, and restore a 400 hectare natural site!

To help prepare for all future opportunities and challenges, Conservation Halton has retained the services of EDA Collaborative Inc. to help develop master plans for five Conservation Areas - Glenorchy, Mount Nemo, Rattlesnake Point, Hilton Falls, and Crawford Lake.
