Ontario Comprehensive Plan
Ontario city leaders are requesting your help as part of the community planning process by taking the community preferences survey, the second and final survey in the process of framing the new Ontario Comprehensive Community Action Plan.
As part of the PLAN Ontario process that began in September, residents and students were able to complete surveys to help the steering committee identify broad planning themes and issues and opportunities to address.
Another, more direct “preferences survey” was developed to help the planning team and steering committee in framing strategies and tools for these areas. This preference survey can be completed by visiting the Ontario City website at www.ontarioohio.org and clicking on Community Preferences Survey or by going directly to the survey at: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/OntarioPreferencesSurvey.
To date, over 1,200 residents, students, and other stakeholders have either completed the community survey or have been interviewed. For those residents that have not completed the initial community survey, there’s still time. A link to this brief survey can be found on the City of Ontario’s website under Community Survey.
If you have any questions concerning the planning process or on ways to participate, please contact:
Mr. Adam Gongwer, Service Safety Director

We are a community with options as diverse as a larger city with the convenience & character of a small town.
Our schools, colleges, and universities bring excellent education to your backyard, including The Ohio State University, North Central State College, and vocational training for both high school students and adults already in the workforce.
Keep active with recreational offerings to fit each season. Marshall Park serves as the hub of local sports and the area showcases two ski resorts, lakes, and even a bike trail. Culturally you’ll have access to touring Broadway performances, art shows, festivals, and both national and local dining and shopping, including The Richland Mall.
Our residents are the backbone of the community; its strength and its greatest asset. Ontario continues to grow with a 17.4% growth over the last 10 years.

Our community is fortunate to have not only the economic resources needed to foster the wide diversity of growth we experienced over the last several years, but also the support of our residents to make it happen.
