Belleville council will be asked to start the process to guide housing and other development in the city in future years.
At its meeting Monday afternoon council will be asked to hire a consulting firm to complete an infrastructure phasing study to support future growth.
The study would be an expanded version of one proposed two years ago for just the west end of Belleville in the area of the Quinte Exhibition grounds and would involve input from the Quinte Homebuilders Association.
Staff is recommending GTA-based Municipal Infrastructure Group Ltd. do the study at a cost of almost $116,000 including tax.
