(Milton Council Chambers, 2019)
Milton’s Town Council is meeting tonight. (Monday, March 1st)
The agenda includes a discussion of the results from a recent places of worship survey the Town asked residents to fill out.
The background on the report says:
“Places of worship play an important role in building communities in Milton. They strengthen community spirits and create a better place to live, work and grow. Currently, the Town of Milton encourages establishing places of worship sites through its land-use policies in the Official Plan.”
Staff and Council will be looking to find how they can assist religious residents over the next couple decades
“The main goal and objective of faith groups for the next 20 years is to serve the community for spiritual needs (prayer, worship, healing) and provide a destination for a community hub for their worshipers’ social needs.”
The survey results show that 51% of the faith leaders stated that they currently do not have a location for their place of worship.
