Public Open House Presentation - Bloor Simcoe Intensification Study

The City of Oshawa invites community members to provide their feedback on the Bloor-Simcoe Intensification Study. The purpose of the Study is to develop an intensification policy framework to guide future development in suitable locations and at appropriate densities within the Study Area.
The Study will include, but is not limited to, a review of the existing land use policy framework and current conditions of the Study Area, and to identify opportunities to accommodate future growth.
Community members can provide their feedback by attending a Public Open House on Tuesday, January 30, 2024 from 6:30 p.m. to 8:45 p.m. in the C-Wing Committee Room at City Hall (50 Centre St. S. enter from the main south entrance and immediately turn right).
Feedback forms are also available online at Connect Oshawa at www.ConnectOshawa.ca/BloorSimcoe or on paper at Service Oshawa, located at City Hall (50 Centre St.).
Feedback will be received until 12 p.m. on Friday, February 9, 2024 and will be considered in a future staff report to be presented to the Economic and Development Services Committee.
