The neighbourhood boundaries and land use designations in the Clarington Official Plan require a secondary and elementary school site location to be confirmed, as well as the road network and lotting pattern of the balance of the neighbourhood. In addition, the south boundary of this neighbourhood is represented by a type C arterial road. The exact location of this alignment will be determined through the preparation of the neighbourhood plan. 1.5 Staff are proposing to advertise and host an Information Open House session for the neighbourhood design plan in the near future.
