Create comprehensive and appropriate building designs that are based on a “set of rules” that would be used by the City and developers. New built form should:

Promote low-impact, high quality environmentally sustainable development;

Incorporate designs features and materials that are sympathetic to the location, history and heritage of each district;

Promote densities that will support more reliable and improved transit servicing;

Encourage a mix of uses and forms that correspond to the district’s diverse population. Mix of uses should support a walkable community complete with the balance of uses required for day-today living;

Promote a high quality public realm; and

Minimize negative impacts on adjacent properties.

Heights of new buildings should integrate well with existing built form. Heights higher than the existing built form should be appropriately designed.

A generally low-rise building base should be incorporated with buildings fronting on Lakeshore Road to fi t with existing low-rise village scale mainstreet buildings.

Medium-rise buildings should be set back from low-rise conditions as described above.

Medium to high-rise buildings may be appropriate on specifi c sites, such as the larger land parcels: the Former Lakeview Generating Site, the Inglis Site and the Imperial Oil Site, and at major intersections such as Lakeshore Road and Cawthra Road, Dixie Road, Hurontario Street, Mississauga Road and Seneca Avenue. Generally, a lower high-rise built form (approximately 15 storeys) was preferred by the community.

Built form south of Lakeshore Road should generally not exceed medium-rise forms.

Step backs of buildings above three to fours storeys should be provided to promote a better pedestrian environment along the street and public spaces and well-scaled built form.

Built form should be transit supportive, oriented to the street, provide access to transit services and provide appropriate transitions and connections with other buildings.

The economic feasibility of redevelopment and the forms redevelopment should take, should be considered prior to developing policy.

Some sites may be able to accommodate buildings with greater heights and transition well to adjacent properties. A taller building with appropriate architectural treatment can have a good fi t with existing built form.

Built form south of Lakeshore Road should not impede physical and visual connections to the waterfront.

Built form should be designed in consideration of the surrounding stable neighbourhoods.

A low-rise building form should occur at Lakeshore Road to protect the mainstreet village character in both districts.

Step backs in built form height should occur promote high quality pedestrian environments adjacent to the building.

Built form in the Port Credit District should be sensitive to the established village character of the area.

Built heritage resources in the Lakeview District could form a fundamental component of the character of new built form in the district.
