This Special Development Services Committee meeting will be conducted as an Education and Training session and will be closed to the public as authorized under the Municipal Act.

Purpose

The Urban Design Tour is an important opportunity for Markham Council to see and experience built examples of development in both Markham and Toronto. Led by Urban Design staff, the tour supports the ongoing development of the City’s Urban Design Guidelines study by offering direct exposure to a range of built form and public realm examples. Through this hands-on experience, Council Members will gain valuable insights into key urban design topics, including:
•    Mid-rise and tall building typologies
•    Retail at-grade
•    Townhouse forms

The tour will highlight both successful urban design approaches and common design challenges, offering practical lessons learned that can inform the Guidelines and how we shape Markham’s future developments.
