A public meeting is scheduled for tonight to learn more about Hanover possibly buying land from West Grey.
The municipalities say they are exploring a possible boundary adjustment to support long-term economic growth.
It would see the transfer of about 16 hundred acres from West Grey to Hanover.
In exchange for the lands, Hanover would pay West Grey $10 million over a period of 20 years.
The meeting is set to be held at the Elmwood Community Centre at 6:30 this evening.
A West Grey information page says by adding the land to Hanover, it gives the Town the ability to make planning decisions, including when infrastructure will be extended and how development can be phased over the coming decades.
Without a boundary adjustment, Hanover will run out of residential, commercial and employment lands by the year 2046
It will be hosted by both municipalities and supported by Grey County.
It will also be streamed live on Grey County’s website. The municipalities also say a recording will be available on their website a few days later.
