WINNIPEG – City council’s executive policy committee has approved the first draft of Our Winnipeg, the city’s new long-term planning blueprint.

EPC voted unanimously to accept the new planning strategy, which replaced Plan Winnipeg, following a public hearing that took up four hours this morning and another this afternoon.

The hearing saw supporters and opponents of the plan praise it for its breadth and ambition but criticize it for a lack of specificity.

Paradoxically, some delegations before EPC accused the plan of creating a “free for all” for suburban developers – while others said it was ideologically biased against suburban development.
