As part of the CDP, the City has retained Urban
Strategies Inc. to explore the transformation of the Preston-Carling area
around the O-train Carling Station through a Design Charette process.
Preston-Carling is one of the three areas within the CDP boundaries, and has
seen a very high volume of development interest. This Charette will be used to
establish planning and design directions to facilitate the preparation of the CDP
and to guide the community improvements and review of development applications.
It is generally the intent to have the final CDP presented before Planning
Committee by Spring 2013.
Design Charette information:
Who:
Anyone interested, no requirement for registration.
When:
Tuesday September 25 and Wednesday September 26, 2012.
