Both are waterfront communities to (Lake Ontario, rivers and creeks).Both contain major corridors such as Lakeshore Road, CNR lines and various watercourses.Both have long standing, stable residential areas.Both have strong natural and cultural heritage.Both are experiencing development pressures.

Lakeview District:Personal health of the community and the environment is critical.

Promote highest and best use for lands no longer being used for industry. (Industrial Lands, former Lakeview Generating Site)

Promote low-impact, high quality, sustainable development that supports strategic growth vs reactionary growth.

Lakeshore Road corridor needs improvements based on a realistic vision.

Lakeview has amazing stories to tell (Arsenal Park, Canada’s fi rst Aerodrome, Cawthra-Elliot Estate, Adamson Estates and many others).

Port Credit District:Lakeshore Road corridor is a fragile main street and a major transportation corridor.

Heritage is the source of village character, it must be protected.

The waterfront must remain visually and physically accessible.

All opportunities to expand and enhance park spaces and waterfront trails should be pursued.

Low-impact, high quality, sustainable development that supports strategic growth vs reactionary growth should be promoted.
