baCkground studies

The Mount Pleasant Secondary Plan is based upon the findings of three (3) major background studies that are well underway. They include:

a Landscape Scale Analysis and Subwatershed Study for Huttonville Creek and Fletcher’s Creek;

a Transportation Strategy and Creditview Road and Sandalwood Parkway Transportation Corridors Class Environmental Assessment Study; and,

a Community Design Study

The background studies support a “balanced approach” to the development of the Mount Pleasant Secondary Plan involving integration between natural environment, transportation and transit, and community design objectives. The completion of these background studies will assist in implementing a transit-oriented community that promotes environmental sustainability and a high standard of community design.

CoMPonent studies

In addition to the three major background studies, the Mount Pleasant Secondary Plan will be based upon the following component studies, namely:

Open Space (parks, trails and open space uses) Retail / Commercial and Institutional (shopping centres, schools, places of worship) Infrastructure (water, sewer and stormwater ponds) Cultural Heritage and Archaeological (heritage buildings and structures) Alternative Development Standards (reduced road widths, laneways, traffic circles)

These component studies will assist in drafting Secondary Plan land use designations and related policies that are important to future residents, such as housing form and density, shopping centres, elementary and secondary schools, places of worship, parks, trails and open space uses.

The component studies are nearing completion.

Master oPen sPaCe study

Focuses on the physical design of the proposed open space network for the Mount Pleasant Community, including an interconnection of natural features, stormwater management ponds and channels, parks, green connections, schools and other open space components. The study shall provide recommendations as related to:

Achieving a balanced approach to community building that considers the integration of all components; Development of a comprehensive natural heritage system, including the designation of existing valley and stream corridors, woodlots, wetlands and linkages; Designation of culturally significant features, including built structures and landscape features; Identification of views and vistas within and surrounding the site area Development of a comprehensive open spaced network comprising natural features, parks, stormwater management facilities, schools and other open spaces; Distribution of open space amenities throughout the community that are accessible within walking distances for each neighbourhood; Designation of parks with regard to hierarchy, catchment areas and type of uses, as well as the integration with existing natural features; Development of stormwater management facilities (pond and channels) that form a key component of the open space network and is design to provide vital habitat opportunities.
