The City of Toronto, City Planning Division, in collaboration with consultants from DIALOG, is holding an Open House to present the Draft Pet-friendly Design Guidelines and Best Practices for New Multi-unit Buildings. Please come
and provide us with feedback on how we can improve the document.
Details are as follows:
Pet-friendly Design Guidelines and Best Practices for New Multi-unit Buildings
6pm - 9pm
Metro Hall Rotunda(55 John Street, Ground Floor Lobby)
The purpose of this study is to develop a series of guidelines and best practices to inform the design and planning of pet amenities in multi-unit, high-density communities. The study will focus on three scales – the neighbourhood, the building, and unit - covering the private to the public realm, with recommendations and strategies tailored to address issues associated with each scale.
As you have expressed interest on this matter previously, we would like to invite you to contribute your ideas and your perspective on how the resulted draft Guidelines can inform planning and development to improve residents’ access to facilities and amenities, and quality of life. We hope that you are able to attend.
