Development Standards
More
In an effort to streamline and ensure a fair and equitable development review process, the Corporation of the Town of Essex has consolidated its development requirements in this Development Manual.
A Development Standards Manual (DSM) is both a technical and business process manual intended to provide clarity for developers, contractors, engineers, and designers when submitting development plans and construction documents to the Town of Essex. It defines the Town’s expectations and requirements for new developments and assists with streamlining the development process.
