Summary
In January 2012, Planning and Growth Management Committee requested the Chief Planner and Executive Director, City Planning, to consider developing a planning framework for the South of Eastern Employment District.
In response to this request, the City Planning Division together with the Economic Development and Culture Division is preparing a three-pronged South of Eastern Strategic Direction. The Strategic Direction will address the area's economic potential, the resulting transportation needs and urban design implications.
Staff have commenced the South of Eastern Strategic Direction and have retained a consulting team led by planningAlliance to complete an economic and urban design background study. This report provides a status update on the background study, community consultation that has occurred to date and next steps.
