North Village Secondary Plan

Project description

The North Village Secondary Plan will create a neighbourhood that includes a diverse mix of housing within walking distance of shopping, services, schools and amenities. Preservation of the natural heritage system is a priority.

The urban design of the community will promote healthy and active lifestyles by integrating the mix of land uses with active transportation connections.

This new neighbourhood in Newcastle will be designed to include sustainable design elements such as vegetated swales to promote groundwater infiltration and ‘green’ buildings.

The Municipality of Clarington has been requested by a group of landowners to prepare this Secondary Plan. The public was invited to give feedback on the draft Terms of Reference for the Secondary Plan study at the Planning and Development Committee meeting held on April 1, 2019.

Once finalized, the Terms of Reference will be the basis for a Request for Proposal from a consulting team who will lead the project. The North Village Secondary Plan will be part of the Official Plan, providing detailed direction for the area regarding land use, transportation, infrastructure, natural heritage, phasing of development and urban design.
