To initiate the site plan approval (SPA) process (apply for a site plan) applicants are encouraged to email londonspsubmit@london.ca or calling 519-930-3500 to arrange an informal discussion. This is an opportunity to discuss the proposal and process. Subsequent to this meeting, a submission may be made for site plan consultation.
All site plans are processed internally by multi-disciplinary teams of planners, engineers, site development planners, landscape architects and technicians, not to mention the various departments and agencies that provide feedback throughout the consultation and application process.
Please note that as a result of Bill 23 receiving Royal Assent on November 28, 2022, Site Plan Control is no longer applicable to residential development consisting of 10 or less units on a parcel of land.

Forms
Telecommunication facilities are regulated and approved by the federal government through Industry Canada. As they are approved at the federal level, Telecommunication facilities are not subject to regulation under the Ontario Planning Act through the City’s Official Plan, Zoning by-law, or site plan approval process. Industry Canada requires applicants for new Telecommunication facilities to consult with the City of London on the location of proposed facilities prior to the issuance of a license. The City of London has developed a Telecommunication Facilities Consultation Policy to institute a consultation procedure between telecommunication carriers, residents and the City. The procedure is intended to provide opportunities for public feedback regarding the site selection process of proposed Telecommunication facilities directly to the telecommunication carriers.
