Overview
The City of Markham's Comprehensive Block Plan Terms of Reference, February 2023, listed on the Guidelines and Terms of Reference page. A comprehensive block plan is a non-statutory document considered by Council that sets the built form and layout framework for a development application. The terms explain when one may be prepared, such as sites over one hectare or with several buildings, owners or land uses, who prepares it, and the matters it addresses, from density, streets and parks to height, phasing, housing and sustainable development.
