Overview

A three-page Oakville sheet in the Development application guidelines series on the urban design brief for subdivisions, a design strategy for a proposed new community built from context analysis, a master plan, detailed design direction and implementation. It names an urban designer, licensed architect or MCIP planner, and its sections add a Development Framework and Development Master Plan, with direction on streetscape, connections, priority lots, heritage and sustainability. It differs from the sheet for development sites.
