June 2023 Status Update

Throughout March and April, the Growing Together team held six community workshops which were attended by over 500 residents and community members. A What We Heard report has now been published to summarize the key feedback we heard during our engagement events. You can read the engagement report here.

Staff is presenting the summary report to members of Kitchener Council at the Planning and Strategic Initiatives meeting on Monday, June 19th. They will also present to members of Waterloo Council later this month.

We are now moving forward to the next phase of the project.

This summer, planning staff are attending a series of events to explore in a hands-on way how growth and change are happening in our community. During these engagements you will have the opportunity to comment on a draft land use and zoning approach. Your feedback, in combination with the feedback received through the Growing Together Workshops in March and April, will help inform the planning framework for Kitchener’s Major Transit Station Areas.
