In an effort to keep the community informed this latest revised concept (prepared by the applicant, Deanlee Management Inc.) has been posted to illustrate the changes proposed since the original circulation. This concept has been posted for information purposes only. Please note that this plan is a concept only and has not been endorsed by staff or Council. A public meeting will be arranged in the coming months to bring the staff report forward to the Economic Development and Planning Committee. The staff report will provide analysis of the Deanlee concept, the community's preferred development plan and the Department's final position.

Proposal:

Based on past meetings held by the developer, the lands are proposed to be developed for medium to high density residential purposes. City staff wish to advise that formal applications for amendments to the Official Plan and Zoning By-law have been received. The following studies have been submitted in support of the applications:

  • Functional Servicing study (water/wastewater)
  • Stormwater Management Plan
  • Heritage Impact Assessment
  • Archaeological Study
  • Environmental Impact Statement
  • Traffic Impact Study
  • Planning Justification Report
  • Urban Design Guidelines

Process:

The City of Hamilton is leading a modified secondary planning public consultation process. The consultation process will include 4 meetings open to the public with the goal of determining the community’s preferred development option for the subject area. This community option would then be considered in the evaluation of the development applications for the subject area.
