The Central Broadway Planning Program will take place in five steps:

Step 1: Understand the Issues.

• Examine existing policies and regulations;
• Conduct data analysis and identify issues;
• Consult with the community to introduce program and receive feedback on key issues and objectives for the area.

Step 2: Evaluate the Issues and Opportunities.

• Conduct review of C-3A Urban Design Guidelines with attention to urban form, views, parking, and public realm;
• Analyse issues and opportunities based on community feedback and background research;
• Test urban form options from an urban design perspective and then model land use options to advance objectives (accomodate commercial capacity, transit oriented design, sustainability, vibrant public realm).

Step 3: Propose Approaches.

• Refine findings into options and seek community input.

Step 4: Review and Adjust.

• Evaluate recommendations against community input and adjust as necessary;
• Examine public benefits potential arising from development scenarios;
• Draft any necessary regulatory changes (e.g., zoning, rezoning policy, Central Broadway C-3A Urban Design Guidelines), and an approach for evaluating public benefits.

Step 5: Conclude.

• Seek Council approval with recommendations for any necessary policy or by-law changes.
