Why Work with a Registered Professional Planner
Registered Professional Planners (RPPs) are accredited planners who have completed years of rigorous training and who are bound by professional standards and a code of ethics. Hiring an RPP comes with the added confidence of hiring a well-trained, objective, and experienced planner who is part of a valuable network of RPPs across the province. RPPs ensure development projects consider the long-term and short-term needs of evolving communities. RPPs focus on the public’s future interests and have a positive impact on a community’s long-term quality of life.
