Consultation has concluded


In November 2021, the Government of New Brunswick began a process of local governance reform. Under the new legislation, the province will move from 340 local government entities to 89.

As of Jan. 1, 2023, Moncton’s boundaries will expand and approximately 650 additional individuals will become residents of the City. The municipality will be responsible for the land use planning of the new areas. Newly annexed land will be incorporated into the City of Moncton’s Municipal Plan and Zoning By-Law with the goal of maintaining the same land use rights you currently enjoy. The main change will be that permits and development services will be processed through the City of Moncton.

View the new Municipal boundary map. To view the proposed changes, you can choose between the following layers on the left-hand menu:

  • January 2023 Boundary
  • Draft Zoning
  • Draft Generalized Future Land Use Map
