If I want to develop my property after the P4G planning district is in place, will I need approval from all five partner municipalities?

Not necessarily. Permitted uses that have minimal regional and cross-boundary implications can be approved directly by the local municipality. Certain proposals that are next to designated future urban growth areas would be referred to the urban municipality for review. 

Approval from all P4G municipalities would only be needed for proposed changes to the policies or maps in the P4G OCP, and for applications that have significant regional implications for services and infrastructure or other region-wide impacts.
