Timmins Growth Management Study Public Open House – September 23, 2025

Over the next 25 years, Timmins is anticipated to grow. Shifts in population, employment, and housing will change the landscape of our community. Imagine what Timmins will be like in the year 2051.

The City of Timmins is advancing into Phase Two of our Growth Management Study. Guided by feedback collected through our online survey, stakeholder meetings, and the first public open house, the City’s Planning Division, together with Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. and J.L. Richards & Associates Ltd., have prepared a draft Growth Management Study that is now ready for public review.

Public Engagement is a key part of this process. As we move into Phase Two, the City of Timmins invites residents to review the document and continue to share their thoughts and ideas about the future growth and development of Timmins. A second public open house will be held on Tuesday, September 23, 2025 to present the document.

The Growth Management Study will provide a long-term vision and strategy for Timmins with consideration to local population, housing, and employment forecasts. It will outline where and how residential and employment growth should occur to best benefit the community, and will also provide the foundation for the City’s Official Plan Review.
