Course Overview
This course focuses on the planning concepts and imposed constraints for subdivision development at the municipal/city level. Sections of the Local Government Act and local bylaws are reviewed to establish layout criteria, subdivision procedures, rezoning process and servicing requirements. Emphasis will be placed on preparing a plan of subdivision and a conceptual site servicing plan. Viewpoints of the city, the developer, the engineer and external approving agencies will be considered. Students will also develop a conceptual servicing budget estimate for their development plan.
