RE: PH29.8 – Neighbourhood Change and Intensification Bulletin
Dear Deputy Mayor Ana Bailao, Chair and Members, Planning and Housing Committee
This is to express our interest and support for the information provided in the above noted report. Our one comment is that the number of case studies is quite small and is likely insufficient to be sufficiently representative of the communities in the massive land area designated in the Official Plan as Neighbourhoods. We would encourage City Planning to undertake more case studies to reflect the diversity of Neighbourhoods which would support the planning analysis required for the “Multiplexes” initiative.
Yours truly,
Geoff Kettel
