Overview

Urban design guidelines for the Community of Stouffville's Highway 48/Main Street Gateway Mixed Use Area, about 22.4 hectares at Highway 48 and Stouffville Road on the community's western boundary, supplementing the Town of Whitchurch-Stouffville's Town-wide and residential intensification guidelines. It sets an urban design vision, guiding principles and a land use concept plan, its map marked Revised February 2018, then public realm guidelines for open space, gateway focal points, streetscapes and development next to natural heritage, and private realm guidelines for residential, commercial, institutional and heritage buildings, accessibility and sustainability.
