Strategic Plan

2024 - 2027 Strategic Plan

The 2024 - 2027 Strategic Plan was approved by Council on December 17, 2024.  

In 2023, the County of Brant engaged citizens to learn about their hopes, expectations and priorities. The community provided excellent feedback which allowed Council to craft a Strategic Plan. More information on how we engaged with the community can be found on the Engage Brant website.

View the new Strategic Plan online: 2024 - 2027 Strategic Plan. From here you can also download a copy of the plan.

Printed copies of the plan will be available in the new year at County of Brant Customer Service Offices.

The Strategic Plan is rooted in a vision. The vision was created from the themes that emerged from the community engagement process.
