The City of Mississauga's generic terms of reference for an urban design study, which demonstrates the compatibility of a development proposal with its surrounding context under official plan section 19.4, policy 19.4.5. It names who prepares the document — an urban designer, licensed architect, landscape architect or planner with a demonstrated specialization in urban design — and lists the contents section by section: site and neighbourhood analysis, site design and master planning, built form and uses with angular plane analysis, access and circulation, and supporting shadow, wind and acoustic studies.
