We are planning a new community in Kitchener and we need your help!
The purpose of the Dundee Secondary Plan is to set out a detailed vision and planning framework. This will guide the long-term development of this new community in southwest Kitchener. Today, lands within the Dundee Secondary Plan Study Area are mostly used for agriculture, alongside environmentally protected areas. The Secondary Plan will provide a road map for new urban uses in the area over the long-term such as homes, parks, natural areas, shops, and schools – connected by trails, transit, roads, and sustainable infrastructure.
This is a transformative opportunity to stitch existing and new communities together and enable the development of a complete, resilient, and connected Dundee community.
The Dundee Secondary Plan is being prepared as an Integrated Environmental Assessment. It will fulfill the requirements for the environmental assessment and land use planning processes at the same time, in accordance with the requirements of the Ontario Planning Act and Ontario Environmental Assessment Act (through Phases 1 and 2 of the Municipal Engineers Association Class Environmental Assessment process).
As part of this project, First Nations, landowners, residents, and agencies will have opportunities to engage with us. We want to hear from you!
