City Told To Work With Developers On New Direction

Some developers don't appear to be happy at what appears will be a change with future development in the city with less building outward and more upward closer to the urban core.

Urban designer Mark Reid tells CHSJ News the city will have to work with developers, asking them what they need to make this work along with sprucing up what have become known as the priority neighbourhoods and putting its money where its mouth is with incentives.

Plan SJ is looking at a growth boundary being established in the outskirts of the city to put a halt to urban sprawl. Suburban growth would be concentrated on Gault Road, Forest Hills, Lakewood and Millidgeville.
