Exciting Results from the Woolwich Official Plan Focus Group Sessions!

We're thrilled to update you on the progress of the Intensification, Commercial, and Institutional Strategies for the Woolwich Official Plan. Thanks to your active participation, we have made significant strides in shaping the future of our community. Here's a glimpse of the valuable insights gathered from our recent focus group sessions:

Intensification Strategy

The Intensification Strategy focus group gathered input on setting intensification targets for our built-up areas, identifying strategic growth zones, and defining development type and scale. Your input will be instrumental in crafting policies that foster complete communities.

Commercial Strategy for 15-Minute Communities

The Commercial Strategy focus group delved into ensuring access to essential services within a 15-minute walk or bike ride. Participants passionately discussed accessibility, pedestrian safety, and recommendations for enhancing access and complete streets.

Institutional Strategy

Our Institutional Strategy focus group provided valuable input on evaluating land use designations for institutions, addressing institutional needs, and identifying available lands. Your contributions will help shape policy changes that support institutional uses.

We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who participated in these focus groups. Your perspectives and ideas are invaluable in creating a vibrant and sustainable future for Woolwich. We're excited to share that the reports, enriched by your input, will be available to the public in late fall.

Stay tuned for more updates about the Background Reports – copies will be available to the public shortly. More details to follow for the February Council meeting.
