Summary

In February 2014, City Council directed City Planning staff to study Forest Hill Village located along Spadina Road and prepare Urban Design Guidelines to protect the small town feeling of this distinctive area.

 

The mandate for the Forest Hill Village Urban Design Guidelines is to maintain the small town character of the area by identifying the appropriate urban character, materials and building rhythm and articulation for future developments and/or renovations within the study area.

 

This report reviews and recommends approval of the Forest Hill Village Urban Design Guidelines.
