Mayor's Task Force on Neighbourhood Design
The mayor's task force on neighbourhood design is a committee with the mandate to establish guidelines that will direct new residential development. These guidelines are to be based on feedback provided from Leduc residents and stakeholders. Guidelines include:
- The appropriate width of residential roadways
- Considerations for park location and design
- Incorporation of sustainable design practices
- The ratio of small, medium and large lots
- The location of low, medium and high density development
- The location of commercial development/convenience stores
Once developed and adopted by City Council, the Neighbourhood Design Guidelines are intended to provide (1) a common understanding within the City Administration regarding neighbourhood design; (2) communicate to developers the City’s expectations in the design of residential areas; and (3) generally allow for well thought-out and integrated residential areas.
