Improving Community Consultation in the Development Review Process
The City is hosting a series of a series of In-Person Open Houses across the city to provide feedback on City Planning's development review-related community consultation practices.
Community consultation plays a critical role in supporting City Planning's work program. Ongoing changes to the City's development review process, including significantly reduced decision-making and approval timelines under Bill 109, have highlighted the need to undertake focused consultation on City Planning's development review-related community consultation practices. These changes will support constructive dialogue between planners, the public and other stakeholders to improve relationships, trust, and meaningful collaboration.
More information about the City's proposal to improve community consultation in the development review process is available on the City's website.

- March 5, 6:00pm to 8:00pm: North York Memorial Community Hall (5110 Yonge Street)
