The Soper Hills Secondary Plan will create complete neighbourhoods that will include a diverse housing mix located within walking distance to shopping, services, schools and amenities. The preservation of the natural heritage system is a priority.
Excellence in urban design will be pursued to promote healthy and active lifestyles by integrating a mix of land uses with active transportation connections throughout.
These new neighbourhoods will be designed to include easily recognizable sustainable design elements such as vegetated swales to promote groundwater infiltration as well as less recognizable features including ‘green’ buildings.
The proposed new major roads to service the Soper Hills Secondary Plan are subject to Schedule C of the Municipal Class EA. The EA will proceed through the “Integrated Approach†with the Planning Act as outlined in Section A.2.9 of the Municipal Class EA Guide (Municipal Engineers Association, October 2000, as amended in 2007, 2011 and 2015) which is an approved process under the Ontario Environmental Assessment Act.
The “Integrated Approach†recognizes the desirability of integrating and coordinating the planning and approval processes to satisfy the requirements of the Planning Act and Environmental Assessment Act.
