The mandate of the Planning Advisory Committee (PAC) is to provide advice and recommendations to Council in the preparation, amendment, or revision of planning strategies, land-use-by-laws, zonings, subdivision by-laws, and land-use matters generally. These are documents that outline Council's vision for where, when and how the municipality will grow and develop, while the by-laws identify and enforce that vision.

The PAC consists of three Councillors, three citizen members, and staff. The committee meets on a quarterly basis or more, if needed.
