Description:

All members of the public are invited to the Newmarket Public Realm & Climate Resilience Advisory Group meeting. Public realm in cities is often understood as the space between buildings. Public realm planning shapes the experiential quality of a neighborhood, its climate reliance, and how people, goods, and vehicles move in these spaces.

This discussion will build on previous transportation discussions, focusing on design regulations and guidelines for buildings, streets, sidewalks, and climate resilience infrastructure. This topic will be the last new planning content presented as part of the PLAN: Newmarket process.

Open office hours will be held on Zoom on Wednesday, April 12, 2023 at 3:00 PM for those who would like an additional opportunity to discuss this material. All are welcome to join in both discussions.
