CITY OF TORONTO VIRTUAL PUBLIC MEETINGS

BEFORE CITY OF TORONTO STAFF PRESENT DRAFT POLICIES AND OVERALL POLICY DIRECTIONS PRIOR TO WRITING FINAL REPORT TO
THE PLANNING AND HOUSING COMMITTEE ON JULY 5, 2022

The City of Toronto is updating the Official Plan for Toronto 2051 - a city planning document that acts as Toronto’s road map for land use and development to guide decision-making on land development, economic growth, the environment and more.

 

There are area specific public meetings, city-wide Open House, and policy themed meetings prior to City Staff writing their Final Report to the Planning and Housing Committee on July 5, 2022.

 

We know that there is a lot going on in the world and in our community, however, it is important that we be informed and aware of where and when the planned intensification will affect traffic, noise, the environment and more.

 

"Toronto is largely built-out and there is fierce competition for land for both residential and employment space. While the Growth Plan sets out growth forecasts for Toronto (+700,000 people and +450,000 jobs) for 2051, it is more important that the City's Official Plan articulates a shared vision of how the city will grow and describes what kind of city we want to be in 2051."  City of Toronto, Item PH33.13

Yet, no communication from Councillor Stephen Holyday has been shared regarding these important meetings that require public consultation on land use and development.
