Planning and Development

The Town of Bancroft utilizes the Streamlined Planning Approach & Resource Centralization (SPARC) model provided by Hastings County to deliver land use planning services to residents and developers. This means that all land use planning matters are handled by the Planning and Development department at Hastings County and are referred back to Town of Bancroft for decision where appropriate.

The SPARC (Streamlined Planning and Resource Centralization) initiative by Hastings County is a modernized approach to delivering planning services more efficiently across participating municipalities. By centralizing operations through the County’s Planning and Economic Development Department, SPARC offers a “One-Window” service model that simplifies application processes and enhances service delivery.

Please use the detailed information on various land use planning matters, or visit the Hastings County Planning and Development webpage for contact information and details on how to discuss your land use planning needs.
