This report summarizes the work completed to date, including community consultation, for the Woodbine Secondary Plan study and identifies the emerging vision and guiding principles to inform the next phase of work.

The Woodbine Secondary Plan study is being undertaken to develop a vision and comprehensive planning framework for the Secondary Plan area anchoring the southeast quadrant of the Woodbine lands. The framework will form the foundation for the Woodbine Secondary Plan, Urban Design Guidelines, Transportation Master Plan, Infrastructure Master Plan and other planning tools to guide the development of a complete community within the Secondary Plan area that is well integrated with the overall Woodbine lands.

The Woodbine Secondary Plan study is a City-initiated process with background materials submitted by the landowner, Woodbine Entertainment Group (WEG) and their consultants, based on the City’s approved Terms of References. The WEG submission included a conceptual Master Plan, conceptual Urban Structure Plan, various technical studies and draft guiding principles supporting WEG's vision for a mixed-use community within the Secondary Plan area. These materials were used by City staff to frame the first phase of the Secondary Plan study process and formed the basis of community and stakeholder engagement. This work resulted in the identification of eight key principles and emerging directions for the planned urban structure which will inform the next phase of work: open, connected, rational, diverse, flexible, complete at every stage, sustainable, a place of its place.

The next phase of the Secondary Plan study will include continued engagement with community members and stakeholders; completion of the updated Compatibility and Mitigation study; identification of community service and facilities needs and opportunities; refinement of the emerging directions for parks and open spaces; and the preparation of the Urban Design Guidelines. This work will proceed concurrently with the advancement of the Transportation Master Plan and Infrastructure Master Plan and will informed by, and aligned with, the outcomes of both plans.

Staff expect to bring forward the final report and recommended Secondary Plan, Infrastructure Master Plan (IMP), Transportation Master Plan (TMP) and Urban Design Guidelines to City Council for adoption by the second quarter of 2027. The Secondary Plan will guide growth and investment of a complete community. The IMP will address the municipal infrastructure servicing requirements, including stormwater management, storm sewer, sanitary sewer and water servicing needs, as well as green infrastructure and low impact development opportunities. The TMP will address the street network, transit and active transportation connections. The Urban Design Guidelines will support and provide additional guidance on the built form, public realm and parks and open space policies in the Secondary Plan.
